It is not a one-time event

Colossians 2:6–7

“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.”

A journey with Christ Jesus is a journey of victory. It is a life where you are assured of triumph. Salvation is not just answering an altar call or making a public declaration that you have chosen Jesus. It is not a one-time event—it is a daily decision to keep choosing Him.

Every day, we choose His Word, His instructions, and a life of trust and obedience. This daily choice launches us into a deeper discovery of who God is, and in Him, we truly discover who we are. It is through this process that we begin to live in the character of Jesus.

To be rooted in Christ means to be steadfast and unshakable, even in the midst of chaos and challenges. It means staying focused, fixing your eyes on Him, and trusting that you will neither fail nor fall.

It is like a seed planted in the soil. As the seed grows roots deep into the ground, it becomes stronger over time. Eventually, it sprouts and grows above the surface. With consistent nourishment—water and care—it continues to grow and flourish.

This is God’s desire for every one of His children: that we be deeply rooted in Him. Through daily communion and obedience, we grow and build spiritual strength in Him.

For us to be rooted, we need faith—and the truth is, we already have faith. Choosing Jesus is an act of faith. Scripture says that if our faith is as small as a mustard seed, we can speak to mountains to be removed and cast into the sea, and it will happen.

We must hold firmly to our salvation in Christ Jesus through faith so that we can stand strong in these changing times. God’s plan is that we walk by faith, continually abounding in thanksgiving, trusting that He will do exactly what He has said.
