John 15:4 "Abide in me, and I in you, as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye except ye abide in me".
It is all about Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Nothing about our salvation, righteousness or justification is ours it all lies in Jesus Christ and Christ alone. Just as those who were no in the ark with Noah died when the floods came, all who are not in Christ shall perish when the flood of Judgment rains down from God above. So are you in the place of blessings?
This life which we have been called to has nothing to do with who we are and more to do with whose we are. Only what we do for and in Christ will last. Jesus tells us we are the branch and outside of the vine we can do nothing. Out side of Christ we are sinners, at our best we are but a filthy rag. We have no salvation without Christ, He is our righteousness. In Him is our justification, He is God's mercy on us. We are but tools to be used in His garden of salvation that we might glean the reaping fields and bring in the sheaves to be gathered into His store house that His house might be filled. We must be careful and not be deceived into thinking it is about us, remember God don't need us, we need Him.
Christ is not only our blessing, but in Him is from where all of our blessings flow. In Him is the true position to prosper. Make sure that you are in the ark of safety. Don't be like the five foolish, found in darkness and the door of salvation closed on you, enter into Jesus the light of the world, where all blessings flow..
