Faith Capsule: Living life by the word of God is abiding in Him.

Psalm 91

One that stands in God abides in Jesus.

To abide in Jesus is demanded from acclaimed believers in God.
“Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.” (John 8:31)

A failure to abide in Him is a passage to living life in darkness. 
Jesus said, “I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.” (John 12:46)
The word of God is not a story but a secret to engaging not to live a life of waste.

Think of it for a moment, does your way of life demonstrate the word of Jesus?

What does it mean to abide in Jesus?
1 John 3:24, “Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this, we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.”

Galatians 5:14 admonishes all, “For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 
Romans 13:8 also states, “Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.”

What happens when one does not abide in Him?
A choice not to abide in the light consciously or unconsciously is to walk in the darkness. 
God is light.
John 1:1-5 records the message, “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.” 
Those who do not abide in Him are rebellious and do not know the ways of God to set themselves for destruction.
Job 24:13 records, “There are those who rebel against the light; they do not know its ways nor abide in its paths.” 
Jesus is the wisdom from God to all that will give themselves to the word of God.
A failure to abide in Him is a passage to living life in darkness. 
In John 12:46, Jesus said, “I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.”

Come out of the darkness of the world to settle yourself in the word of God.
