God
wants us to ‘grow up in every way into Christ’(Ephesians 4:15). We are
to ‘walk in love’(Ephesians 5:2), a life which is ‘pleasing to the
Lord’(Ephesians 5:10). It is so easy for us to settle for something less
than God’s very best. We settle down into a state of spiritual
complacency. What does God have to say about this? – ‘Do not grieve the
Holy Spirit of God’(Ephesians 4:30). He gives us His wake-up call:
‘Awake, O sleeper…’(Ephesians 5:14). God says to us, ‘Awake, awake, put
on your strength… Shake yourself from the dust, arise’(Isaiah 52:1-2).
Have you become ‘lukewarm’? – ‘Be zealous and repent’. Christ says,
‘Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and
opens the door, I will come into him’(Revelation 3:16, 19-20). What will
you say to Him? – ‘Come into my heart, Lord Jesus. Come in today. Come
in to stay’.
