How many Christians know they are created in Christ? How many Christians know He has a plan for their lives, not your plans, but His? If He truly formed you in the womb, then He has a plan. “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Many don’t realize the plan for your life was created in Christ. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He has made us accepted in the Beloved.”
We see that our life is hidden in Christ. I hope you understand now, He came to bring you life and it more abundantly. Your life is in His hands, do you want this life? You were created in Christ for good works. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” I hope you understand the gravity of the mystery that has been hidden from the foundation of the world. “To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.” I hope you also understand when you live through Christ, you are living the real you. The truth is the real you is hidden in Christ. It’s up to you if you want this life or not. Those who choose to live their real life, live in the spirit. “But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.” The life that was created in Christ before the foundation of the world was done in the spirit. You are truly a spirit being. “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self–control. Against such, there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.” Jesus taught His disciples to walk in the spirit. Paul furthered Jesus’s teaching by walking in the spirit. You are called to walk in the spirit as well. “I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.” “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.”
I pray that your eyes of understanding be enlightened to living in the spirit. You were created in the spirit in Christ, walk with Him. Be blessed, my friends.
