Ephesians 5:19-21 (KJV)

19Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;20Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; 21Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

 

Reflections:

That word �always,� in verse 20, just jumped into my thinking early yesterday morning as I was spending a few moments with the Lord. I believe it was from Him; for us. It became larger than life; larger than I�d ever perceived it before! I couldn�t help but look it up in the dictionary and this is what I found:

1.   every time; on every occasion; without exception.

2.   all the time; continuously; uninterruptedly.

3.   Forever

4.   in any event; at any time; if necessary.

 

�But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord (1 Cor 15:57-58).�

 

Well, so much for part-time Christianity. Some might huff and say, �Well, you can�t �always� be in the Lord.� �After all we have to work and interact with the unsaved all day long.� I personally don�t believe that. I believe we can bring forth the fragrance of Christ no matter what we�re doing. It�s not what we�re saying about Christ, it�s what we�re being in Him as we display Him to the world in the way we �live and move and have our being.�

 

If we truly desire the  ï¿½always� of being in Christ, the Holy Spirit will perform it through us. All we need do is desire it to be so, and ask �
