If you have followed this Grace study from Part 1 to now, you have learned what God’s grace is, how it has come to us, that you are a new creation in Christ, His LIFE is now your LIFE, how to renew your mind and tear down the strongholds that the flesh relies on, you’ve begun discovering how your flesh’s self-sufficiency developed, its specific characteristics and the ways it manifests. Now it’s time to be a doer.
A good place to start is with: 2 Corinthians 10:5 (NASB) “We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ,”
Grace is not an excuse to be passive. Walking in the Spirit is not doing nothing. In fact, the REST we have been brought into for our salvation is to be diligently entered. (Hebrews 4:11 (NASB) “Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall through following the same example of disobedience.”)
The following verses would be good to begin meditating on and letting them do their work in renewing your mind:
Romans 5:15, 17-19
Romans 6:1-6
Romans 12:1-2
I Corinthians 15:3-4, 22
Galatians 2:20
Ephesians 2:4-6
Colossians 3:3-4
I Thessalonians 5:23
I John 5:11, 12, 20
