AN AMAZING TRUTH
I do trust you enjoyed a wonderful Resurrection Sunday yesterday, remembering how our Savior rose from the dead. At church we sang the words of Charles Wesley’s hymn, “Soar we now, where Christ has led, Following our exalted Head; Made like Him, like Him we rise; Ours the cross, the grave the skies.”
The truth of our salvation is that we are identified with Christ. When He died, we died (to sin and the flesh); when He rose, we also rose to walk a new life; and we now sit with Him in heavenly places at the right hand of the Father (Ephesians 2:5-6).
You do not have to continue to being a victim to sin and your fleshly desires. You do not have to keep giving in to outbursts of anger. Positionally, you are now seated with Christ. Begin to see yourself where God has placed you. You are “in Christ Jesus” where you live in peace, rest and joy. Not only are you “in Christ,” but Christ is “in you,” giving you the power to walk in victory as you daily manage your family life. You have authority “in Christ” to have power over the temptations of the flesh.
Walk in your home today in the fullness of the salvation that Christ Jesus has provided for you. He did not die in vain, to leave you groveling in weakness and to the power of sin, but He died to save you from your selfishness and from “this present evil world” (2 Corinthians 5:14-15 and Galatians 1:4-5). What a redemption!
