Honey to my mouth...

I met Audrey for our second follow up lesson today. On the outward, there was nothing spectacular about today's meet, nothing mind blowing; I would say its norm. However, on the inside of me, there was a stir. As I was teaching Audrey the basics to Christian living, I benefited so much from it. I gained new insights to the verses that I had constantly quoted in my prayers and even to new believers. I would say its RHEMA. I saw the light to "when we anyone is joined with Christ, he is a new being; the old is gone and the new has come" (2 Cor 5:17). For years, it was a head knowledge, today it was unscripted in my heart. "When anyone is joined with Christ" we are 'together' with Him. That union brought forth so much privileges:-

1. An abundant life
2. Freedom from the bondage of sin. We could now say 'NO' to temptation.
3. Co heir with Jesus and heir of God. WOW! What riches we have!!!
4. We are made new; brand new beginning with God. Brand new life. True living.
5. Christ lives in us cos now we are ONE with HIM. We are joined together.
Just recalling from the book of Romans that says "...NOTHING can separate us from the LOVE of God." NOTHING!

All these were running in my head when we were discussing about the verse this morning. It was really like honey to my mouth. It tasted so good. Yummy.

As I was teaching, I recalled how I would feed this neighbor of mine when he was a baby and I felt like eating his porridge cos it seemed so good, he was savoring every bit of it. I didn't of course! In case some of you might guess otherwise. Today, I felt the same as I was 'feeding' Audrey with the word of God. It seemed so tasty as I was giving it to her. I was just glad that the Lord has prepared for me a portion of what Audrey had. The word of GOD. Yummy.
