Value within
Luke 1:46
46 And Mary said:
“My soul magnifies the Lord …
Ephesians 6:11
11 Clothe yourselves with the full armor of God so that you
may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
If the Lord is not magnified in soul ... is He magnified at all?
“Put on the mind of Christ”, seems a direct commandment.
We talk about the armor of God and every piece in place.
What does it protect inside ... is it bypassing all pretense?
Mary had the Lord inside ... Mary knew true value.
No question how she felt ... about the will of God.
But what about us ... who rules our deeper inside?
Is it worth protecting ... with the full armor or not?
If He rules Life through me ... the armor is already there.
All I have to do is ... recognize His Everlasting Presence.
Through prayer and faith ... in obedience to His Will,
so all will fall into place ... engulfed in God’s essence.
