Christ Our Life

Christ Our Life

“When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory”(Col. 3:4) INDEED, “It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.”(Luke 17:30)

Many of us live in constant fear of temptation. We know just how much we can stand, but alas, we have not discovered how much Christ can stand. “I can stand temptation up to a point,” we say, “but beyond that point, I am done for.” If two children cry the mother can stand it, but if more than two cry together, under she goes. Yet it is not really a matter of whether two children cry or three. It is all a question of whether I am getting the victory, or Christ. If it is I, then I can stand two only. If Christ, it won’t matter if twenty cry at once! To be carried through by Christ is to be left afterwards wondering how it happened! This is a matter that God delights to bring us to with a new flash of understanding. Suddenly, one day we see that Christ is our life. That day everything is changed. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies” (John 11:25)

CONFESS AS FOLLOWS:
I am like a tree planted by rivers of water. I bring forth fruit in my season, my leaf shall not wither, and whatever I do will prosper. The grace of God even makes my mistakes to prosper. (Ps. 1:3.)
Praise God!
