Our life in this world is the same as Christ's

1 John 4:17 (GNT)

“Love is made perfect in us in order that we may have courage on the Judgment Day; and we will have it because our life in this world is the same as Christ's.”

Today I pray that we understand this life of salvation we are in. The scriptures say that our life in this world is the same as Christ's. meaning it's no longer us living but it's Christ in us because when we became born again, we received a new man from above. The bible further says in John 4:4 that He who lives in us, is greater than the devil in the world. Understand this dear one, you are no longer your own. You are Christ's.

So we must be of good cheer because a great power lives inside of us. If Jesus is in you, then who can bewitch you, which sickness can dare to enter your body. If the Jesus that walked on the face of the earth never fell sick or even lacked, what about the Christ in you. That's why we are called Christs on earth. If anyone wants to bewitch you, tell them to ask Saul what happened to him when He tried to persecute the church. Jesus Himself spoke and said, "Saul Saul, why are you persecuting me" Jesus owned the persecution. He didn't say, "why are you persecuting the church or my body"

Brethren because of Christ in us, we cease to worry about anything. You can't worry of sickness, poverty and suffering but surely challenges may come only when you are in God's purpose because everything works together for good to them that love the Lord. Romans 8:28. That's the beautiful message of salvation.

Blessed Sunday.
