The Navigators: TMS (Topical Memory System) Pack B- Relying On Christ's Resources
Have you ever felt dissatisfied with your life? Maybe it happens to you when you look around at your friends, or someone that you know remotely- and you wish you could BE the person, or be LIKE the person. I think it happens often, especially to people who are insecure (like me)!
I think I need to be reminded of this- that I am a son of God, and how blessed I am for it! "But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons. Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, Abba, Father. So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir." Gal 4:4-7
How blessed we are to be called sons of God, when once we were in sin and spiritual poverty. Galations teaches that part of the induction into Christ's family is the process of being included in His inheritance. This spiritual inheritance is both abundant and overflowing with valuable resources that will nourish and enrich our lives- both in this earth and the world beyond.
What are these resources? The Navigators TMS Series (Topical Memory System) points out 6 areas of Christ's resources that we can rely on and use; accompanying these 6 aspects, there are 2 verses for each area that are good for memorisation and internalising:
1.) His Spirit (1 Corinthians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 2:12)
2.) His Strength (Isaiah 46:10, Philipians 4:13)
3.) His Faithfulness (Lamentations 3:22-23, Numbers 23:19)
4.) His Provision (Romans 8:32, Philipians 4:19)
5.) His Peace (Isaiah 26:3, 1 Peter 5:7)
6.) His Help Against Temptation (Hebrews 12:3,Psalms 119:9,11)
