Is It Possible to “Be Holy?”

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength” (Deuteronomy 6:5).

What does it mean to love God more than ourselves?

Jesus’ Answer: “And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him” (John 8:29).

Jesus identifies God, the Father as The Sovereign Ruler and Authority of this world who never left Him alone. Jesus had unwavering faith in God, the Father, and a mindset of surrendered obedience, receiving supernatural power daily.

Yes, Jesus was Divine and human. Because Jesus loved God more than He loved Himself, His prayers revealed a life of daily surrender, consecration, and faithful obedience, always seeking and obeying God’s will.

Jesus’s earthly life is documented in the Four Gospels [Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John]. Jesus was a Prayer Warrior who relied on His Father’s Divine Strength and Wisdom, never making decisions without God’s guidance.

“I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do” (John 17:4).

For us to be able to pray this prayer, we must live a selfless, sacrificial life devoted to God. From our willingness to consecrate ourselves to live an obedient life, the Holy Spirit permeates our hearts with love, spiritual wisdom, and strength.

The Apostle Paul tells us if we continuously pray in faith, the Holy Spirit will guide us in our journey of life keeping us on the Path of Righteousness.

“Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God” (Matthew 5:8).

A pure heart is one that denies self, in exchange for seeking, and obeying God’s plans. Yet God never coerces us to obey Him. We choose our final destiny of Eternal Life or Malachi 4.

Revelation 22:11-14

“He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still…”

12 “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last…”

14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. Amen.

Lord God, many are desensitized and are no longer preparing daily for Jesus’ Second Coming. We pray for a renewal of heartfelt love and dedication to follow Jesus Christ on earth that we may be sanctified to receive daily transformation, and immortality at the Second Advent. God, we ask for the baptism of the Holy Spirit in our hearts, and desire to reconsecrate ourselves totally to You. In Jesus’ Righteous Name, we pray, Amen.
