Recently I have been pondering Colossians 1:26-28. This text gives an insight into what God wants us to understand and push into: "The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Him we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus." Life is an ongoing challenge to overcome or be overcome. Daily we face subtle demands and allurements that attempt to rob and strip us of our spiritual identity and destiny. The enemy of our soul continually tries to deceive us into believing the lie that life will always be as it has been, and that our past will continue to determine our future. Our Heavenly Father wants us to know the mystery of Who Christ is in us and who we are in Christ. When that truth becomes a reality, we will no longer look for something outside ourselves to finish the redemption process. Neither will we look for something to happen TO us, but we will expect something to happen IN us. What is the Lord doing in you? |
