How to Produce Salvation?

Christ is our spiritual Rock and we must be hidden in Him in the spirit. The flesh exposes us and wherever flesh is exposed, it will attract birds that will eat carcasses. Christ is our Hiding Place, my citadel, my Refuge, my Shelter. As long as we are hidden in Christ nothing is going to attack us, but when the flesh is exposed, you can expect attacks from the enemy. We need to seek God’s pleasing and perfect will for our lives from His Word and then commit ourselves to live accordingly.

Philippians 2:12,13
Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfil his good purpose.

You have to grow in the salvation that you've received. Just as how a SIM card inserted on a mobile phone is propitious only after it receives a signal, connected to the network and is activated; it’s important that we activate the free gift of salvation which we’ve already received that the functions of salvation are released. God should be active in your life, everyday and every moment. This is God’s desire for us. If we don’t let Him, God will be passive in our life. Jesus slept in the boat when the disciples faced a storm. He remained passive till they woke Him up. It is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfil His good purpose and intentions!

The Cross procures salvation for me, but it is the Spirit of God who produces salvation. 

Without the Holy Spirit, we have connection only with that historical Cross where Jesus died - a ‘pseudo-salvation’ state. In order to experience salvation, we need the Holy Spirit. 

Galatians 5:17
For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.

So, there’s a great conflict between our flesh and the Spirit of God ( the fight is not between the flesh and us), but the good news is that the desires of the Spirit will overcome the desires of the flesh, because the Holy Spirit is the omnipotent power of God. 

Galatians 5:16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

The fight is between the flesh and the Spirit. So if we submit to the Spirit of God, we will not gratify the desires of the flesh. We all have a natural inclination to live according to the flesh; but when we deliberately incline/ train to the Spirit of God, we’ll be able to listen to that still, small voice and capture the Spirit’s timely interventions and thoughts and desires and live a life led by the Spirit.

Christ risen and ascended to Heaven is the basis of my salvation, and Christ in my own heart by the Spirit of God becomes power in my personal life.

The Word warns us of believers who in the end times have a form of godliness, but denies its power (2 Timothy 3:5) The Word is our foundation and our reference, and we need to build our lives fully based on it; having both godliness and its power reflected in our lives, because we are the address of Christ!
