By that will we have been sanctified
through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:10
فَبِهَذِهِ المَشِيئَةِ نَحْنُ مُقَدَّسُونَ،
بِذَبِيْحَةِ جَسَدِ يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ مَرَّةً واحِدَةً إلَى الأبَدِ.
Sanctification: Sanctification
which is ‘hagiasmos’ in Greek, means “making holy”. It also means
“consecration” or “setting apart” something for a special holy purpose. Sanctification is God’s cleansing and
process of setting us apart unto Himself for His purpose and His will. He
sanctified us when we were saved, and He continues to sanctify us to make us
clean vessels properly prepared for His good works. Sanctification
is an ongoing work in our lives as Christians. There may be moments of special
consecration and powerful change worked by God, but a Christian could be
deceived if he/she considers that he/she has reached full sanctification. In
the Christian life, sanctification has two parts - God’s part and ours. In the
Christian life God is playing the major role, our part is to respond in faith
and obedience to what God is saying.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba Father, thank You God that when I
accepted Your Son Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour, You sanctified me unto Yourself
through the atoning blood of Christ, by and through whom I am presented to You holy, and blameless, and above reproach in Your sight.
Lord please continue to sanctify me, making me into a clean vessel and setting
me apart for Your special holy purpose. Lord God, I love You, praise You, bless You, lift You up on high, and
glorify Your holy name. Thank You God for Your unfailing, deep, everlasting,
and inseparable love for me and for Your abundant blessings. In the name of The King of kings and Lord of lords,
my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, I pray to You Father God. To Jesus be
the majesty, the glory, the power, and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
