Now “to live is Christ” is to be a mini-messiah. Anointed by the Spirit of God with the life of God, living from the love and power of our true Messiah each day.
TLIC Daily. Day 49. February 18: You are a redeemer.
“To live is Christ” means we are Jesus’ Ruth. His once cursed bride, now presented pure and holy before God.
TLIC Daily. Day 48. February 17: Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
There is no more need to control your own life. No need to figure it all out. No need to fight for your agenda. Just worship. Just love. Just “to live is Christ.”
TLIC Daily. Day 47. February 16: The Lord raised up a deliverer.
“To live is Christ” makes our confession and repentance acts of faith in our death with Christ and our resurrection with Christ to his indwelling righteous life.
TLIC Daily. Day 46. February 15: Witness against yourselves.
“To live is Christ” means trusting in Christ’s life alone as our witness. Never our own commitment level or words of promise. These will always testify against us. Only Jesus and his righteousness will bear witness for us on the day of judgment. May he be the only witness we call to the stand today and every day until he calls us home.
TLIC Daily. Day 45. February 14: Be strong and courageous.
No matter what anyone throws at you, you can still stand. Nothing in life can separate you from God’s love. Nothing in life can steal your treasure. Nothing in life can take your life. That’s “to live is Christ,” and “to live is Christ” is to live in courage.
