Living with Jesus in your heart is a core concept of the Christian faith. It means believing in Jesus Christ as your savior and living and transforming your life through a personal relationship with Him. This concept can be explained in detail from several aspects.
1. Accept Jesus as Savior
- Assurance of Salvation : Having Jesus in your heart means accepting Him as your Savior and believing that your sins have been forgiven through His death and resurrection. This is based on John 1:12, “But to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.”
- Confession of faith : As Romans 10:9 says, “If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved,” confess Jesus as Lord and believe in Him. A confession of faith is required.
2. Indwelling of the Holy Spirit
- Presence of the Holy Spirit : Having Jesus in our hearts means that the Holy Spirit dwells within us. As 1 Corinthians 6:19 says, “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have from God?” the Holy Spirit lives in us and guides our lives.
- Spiritual change : The indwelling of the Holy Spirit changes our inner self and produces the fruit of the Holy Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, mercy, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control) (Galatians 5:22-23).
3. Life changes
- A new way of life : When we accept Jesus into our hearts, our values and lifestyle change. As Romans 12:2 says, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind,” we live a life that follows God’s will and not the world’s values.
- Love and service : Those who serve Jesus live by practicing the love of Jesus. Just as Jesus said in John 13:34, “A new commandment I give you, that you love one another, just as I have loved you, that you also love one another,” we must live a life of love and service.
4. Ongoing fellowship
- Prayer and Word : Prayer and Bible reading are important to maintain an ongoing relationship with Jesus. We communicate with God through prayer, learn God's will through the Bible, and apply it to our lives. As John 15:7 says, “If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.”
- Worship and community life : You can strengthen your relationship with Jesus through worship and fellowship within the church community. Hebrews 10:25 emphasizes the importance of church community, as it says, “Let us not give up meeting together, as is the habit of some, but let us encourage one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”
5. Practice of faith
- Obedience : We must live a life that obeys the teachings of Jesus. It is important to obey Jesus' words in John 14:15, "If you love me, keep my commandments."
- Witness and Mission : Those who have Jesus in their hearts must spread the love and gospel of Jesus to others. We must follow Jesus' command in Matthew 28:19-20: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you."
conclusion
Living with Jesus in your heart means going beyond simple confession of faith, having a deep spiritual relationship with Jesus and putting his teachings into practice in your life. This is possible through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and includes practicing the love and teachings of Jesus in all areas of life. Through this, we have deep fellowship with God and live according to the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
