“All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them” (1 John 4:15; NLT). What an amazing truth! We have God living on the inside of us. That is more than my finite mind can comprehend! And our part? To confess
that Jesus is the Son of God. In John 14:23 Jesus is speaking to His disciples and says, “All who love Me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them” (John 14:23; NLT). What a beautiful promise, God will make us His home!
In Romans 8:11 we are told that the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead is living inside us and because of that He will bring life to our physical bodies. It’s amazing to ponder that verse; it is because we have the Spirit of Jesus on the inside of us that we can experience healing and resurrection life.
Galatians 2:20 is a well-known verse, “My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me” (Gal 2:20; NLT). So, what does it mean to have Christ living in us? For one thing it means we can commune with Him any time of day and night. It means we have His love, faith, peace, power and all the attributes of God available to us. It means we share His victory and it means He can shine through our lives and bring hope to others. It means all this and much more. I encourage you today to remember that you take God with you everywhere you go! “Christ in You, the hope of glory” (Col 1:27; NKJV).
