To live is Christ, to live as his covenant king or queen, is to wake up each morning and prepare yourself for spiritual battle, trusting that your cause is just, for it is the cause of Christ. The cause of his love and salvation.
Learning to live by the indwelling life of Christ.
To live is Christ, to live as his covenant king or queen, is to wake up each morning and prepare yourself for spiritual battle, trusting that your cause is just, for it is the cause of Christ. The cause of his love and salvation.
One thing we can know for sure as we lay on our beds at night and all the stresses of the day lay in a pile next to us is that Christ is with us. The shining light of his presence illuminates our hearts. No fear, no shame, no anger can darken his light of love. It is forever. It is no matter what. It is to live is Christ.
To live is Christ is to face every difficulty and every distress from within God’s glory shield of our eternal victory in Jesus.
To live is Christ is to honor Christ as king. King of the nations and king of your heart.
May we today and every day pray, “Come Lord Jesus!”, while we remember that our Lord Jesus has already come into our hearts. This new year may we live as if “to live is Christ.”
This year don’t place your hope in the new year. Place your hope in the new creation, the new birth. Our new reality that is found in Christ and his unfailing covenant presence. And we don’t need a calendar change for that. No resolutions necessary. Just faith in “to live is Christ.”
