YOU HAVE ALL THINGS IN HIM: Daily Devotional

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27).

The essence of Christianity, the glory and joy of all that Jesus came to is Christ in you. Christ in you is everything. Christ in you is Heaven in you; there is divinity in you. Now that you have Christ, you have everything. No wonder Paul said, "So let no man boast. For everything is yours” (1 Corinthians 3:21). Hallelujah!

Here is something remarkable to ponder: Romans 6:23 says, "...the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." This is a fundamental truth of the gospel. However, as you progress in understanding the gospel, you will discover that Jesus does not really stand apart and give you eternal life; He Himself is Eternal Life. By giving you eternal life, he actually gave himself. Hallelujah.

The moment you accept this reality, it will change the way you think and pray. You would stop asking God for things. If it is true that you have Christ (and thank God you do), what do you need? Christ is everything, and everything is in Christ.

Stop asking God for what you already have in Christ.

For example, don't ask God for healing; take divine health, for it is your nature in Christ Jesus. The victorious life is yours in Christ. Everything you need for an extraordinary life of glory and righteousness is already yours in Christ (2 Peter 1:3).

Now you can understand why the Lord Jesus said in Luke 12:22, “…Do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor for the body, what shall you wear?” It is your sufficiency; in Him you have all things. Hallelujah!

The Goodness of God - Daily Devotional

Verse: Psalm 100:5 (NIV) - "For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Devotional: Today, let us reflect on the profound truth that God is good. His goodness is not contingent on our circumstances, but it remains constant, unwavering, and eternal. In Psalm 100:5, we are reminded that the Lord's goodness is inseparable from His enduring love, and His faithfulness transcends generations. As you begin your day, consider the goodness of God in the light of your own life. Think about the moments when His goodness has been evident, whether through answered prayers, unexpected blessings, or moments of divine guidance. God's goodness surrounds us, and even in challenges, there is a purpose that unfolds through His love. In times of joy, acknowledge the goodness of God with gratitude. In times of trial, trust in His goodness, knowing that He works all things for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28). Take a ...

HIS NAME HAS POWER IN ALL THREE WORLDS: Daily Devotional

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth - (Philippians 2:9-10). If Jesus really did give us the legal right, that is, authority, to use His name, what results should we expect from using His name? What is so important about the name of Jesus? What does His name represent and why should we have so much faith in Jesus' name? We have the answer in our first scripture. Notice the construction; is absolute. It says, "At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow"; that is a sovereign decision, a law in the realm of the spirit. Hallelujah! This sovereign decree applies in heaven, on earth and under the earth (in hell). His name has power in the three worlds; this power is applied to "things," that is, everything that exists in the three worlds; be it thrones, governments, galaxies, principalities, pow...
