SJF - Daily Worship, Spirit and Word - Feb. 20, 2024

Apostle Paul gave us the admonition, “Be anxious for nothing.”

Paul wrote extensively about being “with Christ” and “in Christ”. Christ Jesus told the disciples that they would know Holy Spirit and that Holy Spirit would be with them and in them. Being “in Christ” and Christ being in you is a central theme of The New Covenant.

This is a foundational understanding that destroys anxiety. I learned that one of the meanings behind the word “anxiety” is separation. We are not separated from God any longer. “But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.” (1 Corinthians 6:17, NKJV)
