Yeah. Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. Complete in Him. And ye are complete in him. which is the head of all principality and power.

Once we are born again, The creation miracle that is the second birth is sufficient for all things that pertain unto life and godliness.

As newborn babes, we must desire the sincere milk of the Word, that we may grow thereby. There is no instant maturity to be had. but the resources are innate to the new creature. old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new. The key to understanding and applying both the authority and the ability of this complete resource is use.

That is confidence grows as our senses are exercised to discern both good and evil. All too often, We apply the declaration, Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God, only to the salvation moment. but that principle is the operative power throughout our lives. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding have all they that do his commandments.

I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. We are filled up. because all fullness dwells in Christ. we have been given exceeding great and precious promises, that by these we might be partakers of the divine nature.
