"As the living Father hath sent me, 
and I live by the Father: so he that 
eateth me, even he shall live by me."(John 6:57, KJV) 
"For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his 
commandments are not grievous."(1 John 5:3, KJV) 
As we have received Christ into our hearts, we know that we have 
received our liberty from the law of death but, we just start a 
warfare. The Bible let us understand that our "...adversary the devil, 
as a roaring lion, 
walketh about, seeking whom he may 
devour:"(1 Peter 5:8, KJV). Hence, the devil is always looking for a 
way to let's us flip backward. 
It then becomes a tug of war if we are not  truly "filled with the 
Spirit".  We then keep struggling in lieu of rejoicing! Brethren let 
me ask you who rules your heart? Who rules your life? Who rules your 
world? Remember the parable of the 10 virgins our Saviour told us: the 
10 virgins were actually virgins; they had lamps; they were all 
asleep. It was on the hour the Bridegroom arrived that the foolish 
ones knew they are holding a lamp without oil. Mmm, holding a riffle 
without ammo. What's the "ammo" I'm talking about here? The Word of 
God. 
"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing the word of God."(Romans 
10:17, KJV) As we all know, without faith it is impossible to please 
God because the just shall live by faith. "Wherefore lay apart all 
filthiness and 
superfluity of naughtiness, and receive 
with meekness the engrafted WORD(my emphasis), 
which is able to save your souls."(James 1:21, KJV) So that we won't 
end up like the 5 foolish virgins, we have to let His Word rules our 
world. He who has the Son has the Father and as we all know, Jesus is 
the Word. 
In a nutshell, let Jesus Christ rule your world. Have a blessed week ahead.
