Christ alone is the WAY

 S - Eph 2:1-10   (NASB)

2 And [a]you [b]were dead [c]in your offenses and sins, 2 in which you previously walked according to the [d]course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the [e]sons of disobedience. 3 Among them [f]we too all previously lived in the lusts of our flesh, [g]indulging the desires of the flesh and of the [h]mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the rest. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead [i]in our wrongdoings, made us alive together [j]with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the ages to come He might show the [k]boundless riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and [l]this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

O - In the beginning I was dead and walked in my offenses and sins against God.  I walk alongside the devil in disobedience of God.    My flesh led me astray and I did not deny it any fleshly indulgences,  which transformed my mind to one that no longer sought the Lord's righteous ways.    God, however throughout all time has had a plan to show us his boundless unwarranted forgiveness through His Son ,  Jesus, who died for our transgressions.   It is by Faith that I have received this gift from God, through His Son.   For God created us in Christ Jesus, for good works,  which He had prepared in advance for us so we would know the Way.

A -  The application for me is to reject the tempation of my flesh, and transform my mind and heart through Christ's redemptive power, through the Holy Spirits wise guidance, and through the fullness of God's grace, which is set apart for those who know and submit to His plan for their lives.   Redemption is here now,  tranformation into the likeness of Christ is an eternal process.  The world has not overcome me even though I had succumb to it, but Christ in me has overcome the Kingdom of Satan, who rules the hearts and minds on earth through temptation and trickery.  

P - Dear heavenly Father, thank you for today's lesson.  I receive your Truth and ask that it would set me free from the bondage of season, and that I would seek your spirits guidance from here on forward.  Jesus you are in me and are greater than He who is in the world. For I haven't nothing to fear,  only Christ alone saves, and I will follow Him.
