DAYSTART
FOCUS
THE LAW OF CHRIST
Christ came to fulfill the law given through Moses—a law dependent on human effort, with blessings for obedience and consequences for disobedience. But that exhausting pursuit never produced true righteousness. Through His body and blood, Jesus satisfied every demand of the law and opened a new way—one marked by grace and truth. Rather than being carved in stone and kept at a distance, this new law is written on the heart. By faith, we are joined to Him through the Holy Spirit and now live under the Law of Christ—a life no longer rooted in rituals or rules, but initiated and sustained by love. The Law of Christ will be our focus this week during DayStart.

Matthew 5:17-18 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. 18 For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

Romans 13:9-10 For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

Romans 8:1-7
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.
