The NXR Podcast - DAILY TRUTH - Join Your Brothers In The Fight

As Christ works by the spirit and sanctification in and through us against sin, so too does He work through us in practical matters as well. Some of you have been following Jesus more faithfully and for a longer period of time, and therefore you have achieved to a higher degree of sanctification and a greater degree of rest than some of your brothers and sisters. So what should you do with that?

00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.

00:00:01.900 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry because you're spending your

00:00:05.900 cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.

00:00:10.740 Praise God for you and that endeavor.

00:00:13.860 However, algorithms are a thing.

00:00:16.380 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.

00:00:19.000 And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of this ministry

00:00:24.160 that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star

00:00:29.980 review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend.

00:00:36.560 We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless.

00:00:42.360 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of

00:00:47.420 God. You're listening to Daily Truth. Some of you have been following Jesus more faithfully

00:00:55.860 and for a longer period of time and therefore you have achieved by grace alone god working in you

00:01:03.940 and through you that which is good and pleasing in his sight but by grace christ work in and through

00:01:09.700 you you have achieved a higher degree of rest from what in the spiritual sense from sin

00:01:16.340 you have conquered more enemies namely the enemy of your own flesh and the sin as romans 7 says

00:01:25.720 that still resides within the members of your being.

00:01:28.100 You have, by God's grace, his work in and through you,

00:01:31.480 you have been able to attain to a higher degree,

00:01:34.720 even in this life, of rest

00:01:36.540 than some of your other brothers and sisters. 0.98

00:01:39.760 So like the Reubenites, the Gadites, 0.98

00:01:42.300 and the half-tribe of Manasseh, 0.99

00:01:43.900 what should you do

00:01:44.720 with that higher degree of sanctification?

00:01:48.800 Struggling with less temptation in a particular area

00:01:51.740 than perhaps the average Christian?

00:01:54.020 I have a picnic and enjoy it.

00:01:55.720 No, go and help your brothers.

00:02:00.140 You have other brothers who are warring right now.

00:02:03.960 They're in the fiercest part of their battle.

00:02:07.800 They're being slaughtered by lust.

00:02:14.340 Some of the vain, carnal, fleshly temptation

00:02:19.220 we're surrounded in in the world,

00:02:21.360 and they have not yet achieved the same degree of victory by grace

00:02:25.660 in that particular area as you have.

00:02:29.120 So what's the spiritual application for us,

00:02:31.740 this principle that I'm getting at from our text today?

00:02:35.240 One is very simple, discipleship.

00:02:40.300 As you, by God's grace,

00:02:42.900 attain to higher degrees of sanctification

00:02:45.080 and victory over sin,

00:02:46.600 which brings a sense of spiritual rest even in this life,

00:02:50.760 share the wealth.

00:02:52.320 go to those who are less mature in the faith and teach them fight with them not fighting against

00:03:02.040 them but joining with them and fighting against their sin and show them how to wield the sword

00:03:08.500 against that particular foe that by god's grace you have experienced a great degree of success

00:03:15.640 in yourself and now the practical application some of you have achieved by grace same principle

00:03:24.000 it's not your own doing you cannot boast you've worked yes but your work is simply a manifestation

00:03:34.460 of christ willing and working in and through you and so too as christ works by the spirit

00:03:40.800 and sanctification in and through us against sin in this life in the spiritual sense, so too Christ

00:03:47.100 gives us victory and achievement and success in practical matters as well. Can I be frank with you

00:03:55.360 for just a second right here at the end? Look, some of you guys, you're financially supporting

00:04:00.160 this ministry and from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you. I cannot thank you enough. However,

00:04:07.180 some of you, you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it.

00:04:13.580 Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our 0.91

00:04:20.380 totalitarian political elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID. We have

00:04:28.760 written checks that we simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the definition

00:04:34.640 of a recession. We are living in a recession right now regardless. Some of you are struggling

00:04:41.600 to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store. You cannot support financially this ministry at

00:04:48.620 this time, nor should you, but you could still help us tremendously. I am asking you, please,

00:04:56.020 if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time. Leave us a five-star review on your

00:05:02.260 favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever that might be, this is the way the

00:05:08.360 system works. We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers. We need to be strategic.

00:05:15.420 You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people. And the Word of God

00:05:21.460 and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every realm of life gets out there.

00:05:29.260 Help us get it out there. Thanks for tuning in.

00:05:32.260 You
