“Herein is our love made perfect that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world” – 1 John 4:17
LIGHT FOR NOW: As Christ is, so are you in this world.
The name of Jesus is not in the letters. The name of Jesus is an office. When you own the name of Jesus, you have His authority, you own His work. What Jesus can do is what you can do. What cannot fight Jesus cannot fight you. In Him, you live, move and have your being. You cannot be separated from Christ. His victory is your victory; His triumph is your triumph. When you look at Jesus, inside Jesus you see yourself. When Jesus looks at you, He sees Himself. When you look at each other, you behold yourselves in each other (1John 4:17). As Jesus is, so are you. When you see Jesus, you reflect each other no more, no less. You are not inferior neiter is Jesus superior to you. But the prayer is that you come into the knowledge of these things. Because when you lack the knowledge of these things, you will relate with God exactly backwards. When you are ignorant, you go about patronizing salvation shops. You have received the anointing (Acts 3:10).
The basis for a miracle is not your holiness, power or anything that is yours. A miracle is a miracle because it has no human contribution. It is when divinity enters time and suspends time. The resultant effect of the suspension of time is called a miracle. It is when eternity invades time and matter doesn’t matter. A miracle is not a show of power; it is a show of God’s love for His people. The believer in Christ is a living, walking, talking miracle. The believer is God’s masterpiece. The believer is a show or proof of His love towards humanity. All that Christ died for has been supplied and deposited in the believer. Glory!
INSTRUCTION: Acknowledge that you and Christ are one.
CONFESSION: Father, I enforce my redemption, in Jesus Name, Amen.
QUOTE: Faith in Christ unites you and Christ and fuses you and Christ into each other.
