2 Corinthians 3:6 teaches us that “the Spirit giveth life.” Conversely, Romans 6:23 teaches us that "the wages of sin is death." It is essential that we do our best to invite the Spirit into our lives, to avoid sin as much as possible, and to repent when we fall short.
2 Corinthians is full of information and teachings of the Spirit and how we can become closer to God.
2 Corinthians 4:6-10 - We must be hopeful as we face life by always having Christ in our hearts and minds. God is our strength and will help us overcome everything.
2 Corinthians 4:14-18 - Gratitude will strengthen us and bring us closer to God.
2 Corinthians 5:7-10 - We must walk by faith rather than sight. This means putting our trust in God.
2 Corinthians 5:17-21 - We must be ambassadors of Christ, bear testimony and witness of Him.
2 Corinthians 6:14-17 - We must strengthen each other, help each other, and be united in faith.
2 Corinthians 7:1, 9-10 - We must cleanse ourselves through sincere repentance and strive to always to better.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 - We can face difficulties and trials with strength as we rely on Christ.
I know that as we strive to live with Christ's Spirit in our lives, we will be strengthened in our daily lives and feel the presence of God with us. We are so blessed to have a God who loves and cares about us and will help us when we need Him.
