"To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:”
(Colossians 1: 27, KJV)
Every one of us needs to get quite clear about what the life of a believer is. It is not a “from here to there” life, but a “from there to here” life. In other words, our lives start in God. The Bible says that it is the parents who lay up for the children, and not the other way around. (2 Corinthians 12:14).
The Christian life is lived when we receive the life of Christ within us as a gift—to live by that life. It is the nature of Christ not to love the world, but to be distinct from it and to value prayer, the Word, and communion with God. These are not things that we can do naturally; by nature, we have to force ourselves to do them. But God has provided another nature—the nature of Christ, and He wants us to benefit from the provision He has made.
Beloved, strength, life, grace from God, and unshakable FAITH are all ours to receive, that we may measure up to the divine standard of a vessel unto God for testimony. This is my sincere desire and prayer for my life, and I know you desire and pray for the same.
PRAYER:
I pray that your human nature is progressively reduced so that Christ may be fully displayed in and through you in Jesus name. Amen!
