YOU’RE THE MANIFESTATION OF CHRIST IN THE EARTH
📖 “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17).
As a Christian, you must come to terms with the reality of the Gospel and the reality of who you are. You’re not someone who has embraced a religion, but one in whom the life of God is tabernacled. When you received Christ, you were joined together with Him; you became one spirit with Him. You and Christ have become one. It’s an inseparable union.
The Bible says, “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17). This is what makes Christianity real, living, and active. The Bible says, “…Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27). Sin once robbed man of God’s glory, cutting him off from the divine life.
But now, sin has been put away in Christ Jesus, and glory has come! 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature….” This new creation is a divine being with the very nature of God. Being born again, you’re superior to Satan. Sin has no dominion over you (Romans 6:14).
The new creation walks in newness of life, a life lived in righteousness, without condemnation, where you’re not striving to reach God, for you’re in Him, and He’s in you. Wherever you are, God is. He talks through you, He sees through your eyes. He walks through you, blesses and touches lives through you, because He lives in you.
Let this be your meditation, your consciousness. You’re not a mere man; you’re the expression of Christ in the earth.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for your divine life in me and the manifestation of your glory and righteousness in and through me. I’m conscious that I’m in Christ and Christ is in me. I walk in righteousness, free from condemnation, manifesting your love, power, and presence to my world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

“O Lord God, I believe with all my heart in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. I believe He died for me and God raised Him from the dead. I believe He’s alive today.

Colossians 1:26-27 || “[26] [Even] the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: [27] To whom God would make known what [is] the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:” ||
2 Corinthians 4:7-11 || “[7] But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. [8] We [are] troubled on every side, yet not distressed; [we are] perplexed, but not in despair; [9] Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; [10] Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. [11] For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.” ||
Romans 6:4 || “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” ||
