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!

With God All Things Are Possible - Daily Devotional

Bible Verse: Matthew 19:26 (NIV) - "Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'" In our journey of faith, we often encounter situations and challenges that seem insurmountable. We may face overwhelming circumstances, difficult decisions, or personal struggles that leave us feeling helpless and discouraged. However, as Christians, we are reminded of the powerful truth found in Matthew 19:26, where Jesus assures us that with God, all things are possible. This verse serves as a beautiful reminder that we are not alone in our trials. We serve a God who is mighty, capable, and faithful. His power knows no bounds, and He is able to do far more than we could ever imagine. It is easy for us to lose sight of this truth when we are faced with obstacles, but the Lord invites us to trust Him and lean on His strength. One of the ways we can apply this verse in our daily lives is by cultivating an attitude of surrender and d...

His Plans Are Good - Daily Devotional

Verse: Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Devotional: Today, let us take comfort in the assurance that our heavenly Father has plans for us, plans that are filled with goodness and hope. It's easy to become anxious or uncertain about the future, but God's Word reminds us that His intentions for our lives are nothing short of remarkable. In Jeremiah 29:11, we discover a promise that speaks directly to our hearts. God is not a distant observer of our lives; He is intimately involved, and His plans for us are purposeful. Even when circumstances appear challenging, we can trust that God's intentions are for our ultimate well-being. In times of uncertainty, we often question what the future holds. However, God invites us to place our trust in Him, the One who knows the end from the beginning. As we do so, we can find peace in the know...
