You are in Christ - Jesus



EXHORTATION through the BOOK of LIFE

Scripture to ponder on :

“and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

         YOU ARE IN CHRIST - JESUS

All my life, people have told me that the reason why God had saved us was that, when we get to heaven, we could spend the rest of eternity loving and worshiping Him. But, you know that's just not the case.

It sounds pretty good, but it's just something that the devil through his art of manipulation has invented, to divert you from your earthly heritage.

God is not selfish. He is quite the opposite. He is the donor who never existed. The One who has shown the greatest love and compassion.

Why then did HE save us? The Word of God tells us that He did it so that in the centuries to come, He can manifest the excessive riches of His grace (undeserved favor) in us and through us.

Think about it! God will spend eternity showing the riches of His grace (undeserved favor) through you and in you.

That's why He sent Jesus into the world. He loved you so much that He gave His only Son. God gave Jesus so that HE would not be alone, but in order to have other children to love and fellowship with and HE plans to spend eternity doing exactly that.

As a Christian, you have before you the most glorious future that anyone can ever ask for. But don't wait until you get to heaven to take advantage of it, this doctrine is diabolical and makes you live in passivity. As a child grows in the awareness of his family identity, you too must grow in the revelation of your identity in Christ.

You are already sitting together in Christ in heavenly places (Eph 2:6) And your duty is to discover your inheritance and call it to existence on a daily basis.

Acknowledge your identity!

Father, I thank You for translating me from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of light of Your dear Son! Through Him I have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of my sins!

I am dead and my life is hidden with Christ in God and I am filled with the Holy Spirit! 

Jesus’ beloved !
