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 Lord Is Good: Daily Devotional

“The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.” Nahum 1:7 (KJV) The LORD is good. Goodness is the nature of the King of glory (Psalms 100:5). Knowing that God is good prompts you to give Him praise. He has given you life to live on this earth. It is not by chance that you are alive today; God made it so. His creation of heaven and earth and everything therein is a demonstration of His goodness (Genesis 1:1–31). He feeds all creation, including you, every day; He protects you from trouble and danger. For these and many other things He has been doing for us, He wants us to trust Him. Beloved, sometimes He allows us to go through challenges so that we can be trained for the tough times ahead of us.

The Lord knows about it; this is not the time to give up on God; He knows those ...

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.
