Good morning, heirs of God! What are we doing today?
In Christ, we reign in life because we are created in Him to be like our Father God.
Ephesians 4:24 (KJV) And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
A man must be born of God from above to enter and experience God's kingdom, as Jesus stated in John 3:3, 6-7, “(KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see [he cannot experience] the kingdom of God. … That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit…Ye must be born again [of the Spirit].”
Christ Jesus said He is from above and not of this world, and that He was sent to be planted in the earth as a seed to produce many more of His kind. He stated this in John 8:23 (KJV), “Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world,” and in John 12:23-24 (KJV), “The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit [many more of His kind].” Therefore, every person without the Spirit of Christ within them is not of His kind, as stated in Romans 8:9 (KJV), “Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.”
Just as with Jesus, it’s the Spirit of Christ within us that makes us God’s true children, because a seed can only produce after its kind. We are born of Christ Jesus’ incorruptible seed, as stated in 1 Peter 1:23 (KJV), “Being born again, not of corruptible Seed, but of incorruptible [Seed], by the Word of God [Christ Jesus], Who liveth and abideth for ever,” and in Romans 8:16-17 (HCSB), “The Spirit Himself [the Holy Spirit] testifies together with our spirit [the Spirit of Christ within us] that we are God’s children, and if children, also heirs - heirs of God and coheirs with Christ - seeing that we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.”
Just as our soul once lived entirely according to the flesh-and-blood man, we are now instructed to live entirely by the Spirit of Christ within us (Rom 8:4; Gal 5:25). Can you take God at His word? Let us live by the Spirit of Christ, guided and taught by the Holy Spirit, as Isaiah 54:13-15 says. Then everything will go well for us, and we will be a blessing to others.
Confession of Faith in God's Word:
God said it; that settles it, and I believe it. Although my flesh is of the earth, the Spirit of Christ within me comes from above. I choose to live as God’s child, guided by the Spirit of Christ, the man born from above in the kingdom of God.
Romans 5:17 (KJV) For if by one man's offense death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.
