" I Will Abide In You"

Today's Verse: “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.” - John 15:4
Earlier in this chapter Jesus tells us that He is the vine and we are the branches. The vine supplies everything the branch needs for life and growth. Jesus tells us that unless we are abiding in Him we will never please God. 

To abide means to make yourself at home. Abiding implies staying a while. Those who learn to abide, connect with God on a daily basis. Abiding means we walk with Him in a moment-by-moment relationship.

Sample Prayer:
Father, help me to rest in You today. The source of my strength is You. Help me to remember that the Faith life is not about performance, but about relationship with You. I will make myself at home with You, and allow You to completely fill me. Remind me today that the only way to please You, is to allow Your Spirit free reign in my life.
In Jesus Name,
Amen

I declare that today I will abide in Christ. I will look to Christ for strength, wisdom, and peace. I please God as by Faith and In The Name Of Jesus I allow His Holy Spirit free reign in my life and I am being obedient to His voice. Today, I am walking with God on a moment-by-moment basis.
