Our Worth
by Robert Schaetzle
“Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent , I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the Gospel.” [Philippians 1:27 NKJV]
Worth is not about who we are in the flesh, but who we are in Christ who created us. Living life through new birth comes when we recognize God’s Spirit at work in us. His presence comes alive as we learn to yield to God’s Spiritual prompting.
Consider living in this world as though citizens of the Father’s heavenly kingdom, not isolated as being unknown, but purpose filled from God’s indwelling presence for the progress and joy of faith.
Our worth is more precious than all what the world aspires to find. The prompting of God’s abiding resources, will display Godliness and truth far above man’s reasoning to find himself.
Standing fast in the Spirit brings confidence of God’s redeeming power at work in our everyday living; ‘greater is He that is in us.’ His authority will overcome moments when fear of circumstances might cause doubt of our faith; trust to rest ‘in Christ.’
Striving together through fellowship in a unity of oneness will bring peace and calm. It will increased confidence to our position of worthiness. I find this when I participate in weekly and monthly prayer circles within my own place of worship. Striving together, through faith, reveals maturity our Lord assigns us. Our worthiness becomes His Spiritual prompting; when grace and His power are revealed for the progress of the gospel.
