Learning to live by the indwelling life of Christ.
“To live is Christ” means any time you’re feeling like a pile of lifeless dry bones, overwhelmed or underwhelmed, you can hear the word of the Lord. You can hear the prophet speak to your heart. Thus says the Lord, I HAVE put my Spirit in you and you ARE alive. Alive in Christ.
“To live is Christ” means now we can love freely from Christ’s freely given love. Not purchased love, but a love that purchased us.
Thank you Heavenly Father. Thank you for your abundant mercy in Christ that has restored to me the joy of my salvation, and upheld me with a willing spirit. Thank you for the New Covenant. Thank you for creating in me a forever clean heart. Thank you for eternal life. Thank you for “to live is Christ.”
“To live is Christ” offers us a new spirit. The Holy Spirit. The indwelling life of Christ. His life in us changing our desires and affections from the inside out.
“To live is Christ” means we have the mighty rushing wind of God’s Spirit in us. But the incarnation tells us that that mighty whirlwind is now the simple breath of a baby.
Union with Christ is a seal. A possession. An unbreakable presence. God himself is the guarantee of our salvation.
To Live is Christ
