Our Power In Christ By Kong Hee

Our Power In Christ

There are so many voices telling you who and what you are from the moment you are born that often, it’s easy to get distracted from the truth!

But when your identification is in Christ, it’s possible for you to change your direction and have the power to resist all distraction. God’s will is for you to know who you are in Him and to be totally focused on where you are going.

Saul of Tarsus became the great Apostle Paul the moment he saw who Jesus was and who he himself was in Christ. Jesus said to him, “Your name is not Saul anymore, your name is now Paul.” A new man was created—a man in Christ, a righteous, blessed, healed, victorious and redeemed man!

Paul was so radically changed following that encounter that he made it his life mission to tell the whole world who we are in Christ. So convinced was Paul of this truth that at the end of his ministry, he said that everyone’s goal should be to “be found IN HIM:”

“Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.” ~ Philippians 3:9

If you want to find out who you are (your true identity) and what you have (your inheritance), it can only be discovered in Christ. Paul said, “I am found in Him.” Can you say the same today?

Prayer for the day:

Ask God to refresh your vision of who you are in Christ. Pray that you have a clear revelation of the new creation that He has graciously transformed you into!
