Winning Wisdom: In Christ

Topic: In Christ [Monday, 26th June 2017]

For in him we live and move and exist. As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ Acts 17:28

It's amazing to know that we are in Christ. Being in Christ is the best thing ever. God did not only give us His life, He also put us in Him. Apostle Paul said in Colossians 3:3 that we are hid in Christ with God. Christ, to us, is not just a place of dwelling but a place we function from. Christ is the place where we exist, where the whole essence of our life find meaning. And because we are in Christ, our existence is worthwhile and we fulfill purpose.

Most people are still grappling with the meaning of life and what it is worth. But not us, for those in Christ knows why He has giving us His life and why we exist, and that is to fulfill His divine purpose (Romans 8:28, John 9:4). We also know that, because we function - move - in Him, we have all been blessed with all that we need to function maximally, without any inhibition (Ephesians 1:3).

Being in Christ is being in the Anointed One and being clothed with the anointing. Scriptures say in Galatians 3:27 AMP that "for as many [of you] as were baptized into Christ [into a spiritual union and communion with Christ, the Anointed One, the Messiah] have put on (clothed yourselves with) Christ." This makes the anointing of God to be available to EVERYONE in Christ. Very importantly, we must know that the functionality of the anointing we have been clothed with is limitless. It is profitable to all things, and as long as you are in Christ, you are capable of putting the anointing to use to the glory of God.

Keep winning daily.

Prayer:

Thank You Lord for placing me in Christ. I live, move and exist in Christ. I am blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ. I am clothed with the anointing in Christ. And in Christ I live a victorious life daily, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
