“Truly I say to you, whoever does not accept and receive and welcome the kingdom of God like a little child [does] shall not in any way enter it [at all]” (Luke 18:17, AMPC).
Children accept and trust unconditionally, which is a trait we tend to lose when we become adults. This unconditional acceptance is a key component of the child-like faith God values greatly when it comes to believing His Word.

“Truly I say to you, whoever does not accept and receive and welcome the kingdom of God like a little child [does] shall not in any way enter it [at all]” (Luke 18:17, AMPC).

“May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love” (Ephesians 3:17, AMPC).
Our faith in Jesus, and in what He did for us on the cross, unites us with Him. Love is the most powerful force in the universe; Jesus, who is love in human form, promises to live inside us when we accept Him.

“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified” (Galatians 2:16).
Religion and the Law of Moses have parallel logic, which says that constant works are required to wipe away our sins. Thankfully, Jesus changed all that when He went to the cross; we can now simply have faith in Him and let go of our self-efforts.

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things” (Philippians 4:8).
As spiritual beings, our minds are a battleground in a spiritual fight between good and evil. The mind is a powerful weapon and our thoughts carry great weight; God’s instructions on what to meditate on are therefore quite clear.

“And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus” (Colossians 1:21, 22, 28).
Our minds are at war with what the Gospel of Grace teaches when we think our actions can make us righteous in God’s eyes. Righteousness only comes by Jesus Christ; only when we believe in His finished works are we made perfect.

“All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away” (Isaiah 64:6, NIV).
We fail miserably when we depend on self-effort to make us righteous. On our own merits, we can’t possibly stand in God’s presence; we need Jesus to clean us up and keep us rooted in His righteousness in order to be presentable to the Father.

“But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life” (John 4:14).
When we’re wandering through life spiritually parched and thirsty, Jesus is waiting to give us a long, cool drink to quench our thirst. Water is a basic necessity to sustain physical life, which is why He chose this analogy to make this important point to the people.

“Then Jesus said unto them, verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst” (John 6:32, 35).
When Moses led the people through the wilderness, God gave them food to eat, but they eventually became hungry again. Jesus is now our living bread that sustains us.
