- Do you know that if you have made Jesus Christ Lord of your life, that you are in Him.
- The apostle Paul uses the phrase "In Christ", "In the Lord", or "In Him", 36x's in the book of Ephesians alone.
- He uses that phrase 160 x's when you look at all of His writings.
- That means that you are "In Him" and He is "In you"
- You are secure in Him!
- You are protected "In Him"
- You are safe "In Him"
- Your personal fellowship with Christ is the most important and most valuable thing that you have.
- His presence is literally, EVERYTHING!
- Without His presence you will feel empty.
- Without His presence you will be unfulfilled.
- God chose you, "In Him", way before He even Created the world!
- And He chose you for a purpose.
- In other words, you have great value!
- His purpose is right there in verse 4; "That you would be holy and without blame before Him in love,”
- So, how do we live Holy?
- It's all out of our relationship with Him.
- We live whole and Holy by His love.
- So it flows out of your relationship with Him.
- EVERYTHING...simply Everything flows out of your relationship with Christ!
- Don't neglect your relationship with Him.
- Don't treat it casually!
- You will never successfully overcome that addiction without Him.
- You will never defeat fear apart from Him.
- You will never beat the battle with lust without Him.
- Your battle with depression and loneliness will never be won apart from Him!
- You will never win without Him!
- You need Him!
- Jesus says it, Himself, "Apart from me, you can do nothing"(John 15:5)
- Today, surrender yourself fresh and new to Him.
- Reconnect with Him.
- Recommit yourself to a fresh, vibrant relationship with Him!
- Admit it... You need Him!
- Have a great Tuesday!
“...He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,” Ephesians 1:4 NKJV
