Source

Where does temptation come from? The world? The flesh? The devil? Well, one thing we know for sure is that it doesn’t come from God.

Fruit in our lives will demonstrate that we are connected to True Vine, and his Father gets all the glory. 

Allowing the power to flow through obedience produces “much fruit.” Apart from the Source, I “can do nothing”!

All we have—life, strength, our relationship with God, everything we need—comes from our Savior. Indeed, Jesus is our source of life.

Is Jesus your personal source of eternal salvation?

Whatever your healing need is today, cry out to Yahweh Rapha. He is the one who “heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds” (Psalm 147:3).

Here’s the hard truth. Whether the source is the world, the flesh, or the devil, at the end of the day we own our disobedience.

Is Jesus your source of eternal salvation? By your own efforts, you cannot have a relationship with God no matter how hard and how long you try.

Spiritual discipline is not self-sufficiency. It is the wisdom to latch on to the Source, be filled with His strength, and be controlled by His Spirit.
