Complete in Christ.
“… And the Spirit which he gave us is our witness that he is in us.”
1 John 3:24(BBE)
I want you to notice from our opening scripture that, the proof that God lives in us is the Spirit which He gave us. This means that, because the Holy Spirit is in you, it means that God has taken residence inside of you.
The Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 6:17, “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” When you got born again, the life of God supplanted your human life. You became plugged into God. There are many Christians who do not know this, so they continue to live the ordinary life. This is why Paul asked in 1 Corinthians 6:15, “Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ?”
This is your rhema for today; Ephesians 5:30 says, “For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.” Your body is a member of Christ. It is no longer your body anymore. Therefore what God will not tolerate in the body of Jesus Christ He will not tolerate in your body. Your union with Christ empowers you, so whatever bows to Him, bows to you.
Colossians 2:8-10(WNT) says, “Take care lest there be some one who leads you away as prisoners by means of his philosophy and idle fancies, following human traditions and the world's crude notions instead of following Christ. For it is in Christ that the fulness of God's nature dwells embodied, and in Him you are made complete, and He is the Lord of all princes and rulers.”
Confession.
God dwells in Christ and I am in Christ and Christ is in me. Therefore, the fullness of God's nature dwells embodied in me. I am plugged into God, one Spirit with Him.
For further study, read:
1 Corinthians 12:13, John 1:16, Colossians 3:10-11.
