THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST IN YOU

It is easy for anyone to say God is with him/her. But when we give our life to Christ as our Lord and Saviour, a new dispensation comes into play. It is a dispensation of newness of life in Christ, where God after the resurrection of Jesus begins to reveal to us the things embedded in our new creation. The most significant of this, other than your being born again is the fact that God is not just with us, but through Jesus Christ is in us. Christ in us the hope of glory is a mystery that God reveals to His children. You are a God carrier, which means the power of God is now completely in you and that is why you can now express the glory of God.

Beloved, every human being was created by God as a spirit being, that has a soul and lives in a body. The body is the license for the spirit’s eartly operations which means, the day the body dies, his spirit cannot operates on the earth any longer.

1 Thessalonians 5:23 KJVS - And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ

Your spirit is the real you, the core of who you are. It is the spirit that relates or interacts with God. When Adam sinned, he hid himself from God why, his spirit cut off the fellowship with God because God relates with human spirit. The Holy Spirit a.k.a the Spirit of Christ moved into you and made your spirit His permanent dwelling place.

Confession: I enjoy fellowship with God, I have a growing and deep relationship with my Heavenly Father, I hear His voice and heed to His leading, I am a friend of God, therefore, I am protected, loved, and valued! God is for me, no one can be against me! Glory to God.

Further reading; Ephesians 2:5 AMPC; Even when we were dead (slain) by [our own] shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in union with Christ; [He gave us the very life of Christ Himself, the same new life with which He quickened Him, for] it is by grace (His favor and mercy which you did not deserve) that you are saved ( delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ's salvation)

Romans 8:9-10 NIV; You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. [10] But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.

Read through the Bible: Songs of Solomon 1 & Hebrews 1
