You call us, Lord, to "lead a life worthy of Your calling" (Ephesians
4:1). We say, 'I can't.' You say to us, "I have blessed you, in Christ,
with every spiritual blessing" (Ephesians 1:3). Why we do allow our
lives to be controlled by our own weakness when we can be transformed by
Your strength? Help us, Lord, to think of all that You have given to
us, in Christ, and to rise up, with new strength - Your strength - to
live for You day-by-day.
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
