The “Ize” Have It! (Setting My “Ize” on Christ)

Daily writing prompt
Which relationship has taught you the most about yourself?

The “Ize” Have It! Which ize are you looking through? Open your eyes and see supernaturally.

Jesus didn’t die and rise from the dead so people can intellectualize, theorize, and theologize about Him. He lives so people can realize and personalize Him as their absolute Lord and God! (John 20:28)

Don’t just mentalize, analyze, or memorize what the Bible says about Jesus. Arise in the Spirit and “heartorize” it! Ponder it. Let His words burn in your heart. (Colossians 3:2)

Allow Jesus to live in you and direct your thoughts, words, and actions to conform to His will. Let Him energize and spiritualize your life with His presence, power, and love. (Colossians 1:27)

Refuse to systematize and formalize your faith! “Disciple-ize” it! Always be led by Christ’s Spirit. (Romans 8:14)

Avoid being lukewarm. (Revelation 3:15-16) By being a nominal Christian you unintentionally trivialize your faith.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
