…For this purpose the Son of God was manifested,
that he might destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8).
The greatest thing that could ever happen to a
human person is to know and have Jesus Christ in his life. When Christ is
manifested in your life, everything that’s not of God will leave. When He’s
manifested in the life of a sinner, the power of sin is broken, and
righteousness takes over.
Man is a spirit, he lives in a body, and he has a
soul. The soul is where his mind, will, and emotions are. However, it’s the
spirit of man that’s born again and receives eternal life. That’s the reason
someone can be born again but still have a devil oppressing his body, or still
have the wrong thoughts in his mind, allowing the devil to manifest himself in
his thinking. But the Bible says, "...Christ in you, the hope of
glory" (Colossians 1:27). Christ shouldn't only be manifested in your
spirit, but also in your soul and body.
When He’s manifested in your soul, you’ll think the
thoughts of God, have His emotions, and do His will. If you’re sick today, this
is what you need: the manifestation of Christ in that part of your body that’s
afflicted! Romans 8:10 says if Christ be in you, though the body be dead
because of sin, the Spirit gives it life because of righteousness. That
just about says it all: Christ in you is the glory of God.
The words of Jesus in John 14:21 & 23 let us
know how Christ can manifest Himself in your life; it’s by loving the Lord and
keeping His Word. He can show Himself to you, not only by coming into your life
and directing you through your spirit, but also by showing Himself alive in
your physical body, making you healthy and strong.
If you’re unable to walk, if He’s manifested in
your legs, your legs will be healed. If you needed a heart surgery, and He’s
manifested in your heart, He’ll give you a new heart. Christ in you is the
answer; He’s all you need. Follow Him with all your heart, and give yourself
completely to His Word, for an ever-winning and triumphant life.
Prayer Dear Father, I thank you for the
manifestation of the life of Christ in me. Because Christ is in me, I live in
dominion and victory forever. Christ in me is my hope of success, victory,
health, wealth, prosperity, as well as reigning in life over circumstances, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.
