RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL:

Christ Revealed In You.

THURSDAY, 19TH SEPT, 2014
-Pastor Chris

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).
There’re those who argue that Christianity is the imitation of Christ, but they’re wrong.
Christianity isn’t the imitation of Christ.
Those who are trying to imitate Christ are working from the outside.
In Colossians 1:26-27, the Bible tells us, “Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made
manifest to his saints: 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.” Christianity is the revelation of Christ in you. That’s God’s dream; that’s His plan and desire: Christ revealed in you!
Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God”; this was due to Adam’s transgression. Now that salvation has been consummated, we’re no longer
short of the glory; we’ve been given the glory of the Second Adam, Christ Jesus.
Christ in you is the hope of glory. The life of Jesus Christ is made manifest in our physical
bodies (2 Corinthians 4:10); what an awesome reality! When He died, you died in
Him, and when He was raised from the dead, you were raised up together with Him, unto the transcendent life.
This is Christianity! You’re in Christ; He’s in you. You’re the revelation of His righteousness, glory and grace. No wonder the Word says His intent is to unveil His
manifold wisdom to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, through
the Church (Ephesians 3:10). True spiritual growth is determined by the extent to which Christ is revealed or manifested through you.
The revelation of Christ in us is much more than the imitation of Christ; it’s the
understanding and expression of His character; His life and glory through us.
Thus, we see that Christianity is not the imitation of Christ, but there’s an imitation of Christ in Christianity.

PRAYER:
Dear Father, I thank you for the life of Christ in me that makes me supernatural. I was
born to live the Christ-life and unveil your character, glory and life! I live above all the
limitations of the human realm by the ability of your Spirit that’s at work in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study:
2 Corinthians 4:10-11 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that
the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway
delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
Philemon 1:6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the
acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
