in #steemchurch6 years ago

YOU AND CHRIST ARE ONE; JUST AS THE HEAD AND THE BODY ARE ONE.

Colossians 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.


The Bible says that Christ is the head of the church and you as the church are His body. So, Christ and His church are one just as the body and the head are one. You and Christ are one. You cannot say that God sees Christ, the head as perfect but His body as imperfect.

In other words, you cannot assume that Christ is accepted and His body not accepted by Him. The measure of Jesus' acceptance by God is the measure of your acceptance by God. So, it makes no sense to say that the head is well but the body sick, that the head is rich but the body in lack and want or that the head is at rest but the body is full of stress.

Friends, what Jesus is before God is exactly what you are to the Father. As Jesus Christ is, so you are in this world.

The very moment you became born again, you were no longer a “slave”, but you automatically became a true son of the Almighty God. And you know what? God does not just call you His son. God also calls you “an heir” through Christ.

Galatians 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

In fact, Romans 8:16-17 clearly states that you are “joint heirs” with Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

So you see that you inherit everything that Jesus has as a joint heir with Him. The same way Jesus is precious to the Father, is how precious you are to the Father also. The way the Father loves Jesus, is the same way the Father loves you!

1 John 4:17 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.

Today, God wants you to lay claim through Christ being your head. Start believing that by all His perfection, and the delight and joy that He brings to the Father's heart, He has set your account - Jesus has put you right with God! And you will begin to realize that as Jesus is the sweet smelling savour to the Father, so are you.

The more you begin to see that you are one with Christ, the more you will realize that whatever you need right now, He is dispensing it to you. If you are sick in your body, Christ your head will impart His healing virtue to you. If you lack wisdom, Christ your head will give it to you.

If you lack anything, Christ your head will give to you His exceeding riches and you will be promoted and protected.

The Bible says;

3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Christ as your head is the perfect will of the Father, so are you as His perfect body. In God's perfect will, there is no sickness, poverty or death. So there should be no sickness, death or poverty traceable to you because you are God's perfect will.

There should be nothing lacking, nothing missing and nothing broken in you. Because in Him ( the head), we live, move and have our being.

Beloved in the fold, I want you to have this rich mindset and revelation that Christ and you are one. You can never be separated from Christ your head from whom comes all the supply you need. He is the source of power, wisdom, honour, glory , riches, strength , blessing and health.

UNTIL YOU SEE YOURSELF AS ONE WITH CHRIST, YOU WILL REMAIN HELPLESS BEFORE THE WORLD.


Dearly beloved, you are an heir of the Almighty God. And you are a joint heir with Christ Jesus. It is pertinent for you to discover all the blessings that your rich inheritance includes and then start walking in them as of now!

Stay connected to Him. God bless you.
