It's Who You Know

It's not what you know, but who you know that counts. Maybe you have heard those words. The implication is clear. Success in life is not how much you know, but who you know. If you know the right people, then you have it made in life. Yet, it's true, if you know the Lord.

Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ in a personal relationship? Talk to Him and walk with Him. Be sure that He is real to you everyday and always. Jesus said, And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age (Matthew 28:20, TLB). 

If you don't know Jesus, invite Him into your life. The Spirit of Christ is everywhere. Only faith recognizes His presence. The Spirit of Christ lives in the hearts of all who trust Him. We know His love and find His help day after day. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His (Romans 8:9, NKJV).

The Spirit of Christ is the same Holy Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. Believe that Jesus died on the cross for all your sins. Believe that Jesus is risen from the dead. Confess Him as your Lord. Then you can know Him today and everyday.

As a believer, confess even now, Jesus is Lord. He will make Himself real to you. And no one is able to say, Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:3 NLT). It's who you know, if you know the Lord.
