Christ IN us — Christ THROUGH us
Destiny and purpose, empowerment and fulfillment — found in the book of your life God wrote before you were born. He guides and empowers as we yield and follow.

God is not weak! Jesus didn’t come to establish a powerless religion, but to restore people to their original, created purpose and relationship with God which includes establishing God’s good ways and trampling evil whenever it tries to hinder.

There’s no need to strive — we could never earn God’s love. He loved us before we stepped foot in this world and Jesus’ blood was shed to enable us to experience it. He now calls us to understand how FULLY accepted we are, to the point of being family … and as we ABIDE in His love, we will find even our hearts desires are fulfilled.
God always keeps His end of the bargain (His Word and promises). All the discrepancies are on our side. Let’s own it, pull up our socks, be “believing ones”, and start seeing the promised miracles.
Believer’s aren’t supposed to just “hang tight” until we get to heaven. We are God’s body; a kingdom of priests and kings in Christ. We are to walk in the authority of our Heavenly Commander and Chief, Jesus Christ, and occupy until He comes; meaning, to do all things at His lead, with His authority, and with His powerful results.
We need to stop relying on our own efforts and enter instead into God’s rest of faith. The LIFE of God is in the seed — His Word. To be fruitful we simply need to make sure the soil of our heart is healthy and providing the environment the seed needs in order to grow and manifest its full potential. Let’s keep the weeds and thorns out and make sure there’s enough water and nutrition. As we believe and maintain our heart fixed on Jesus, God’s life and power will cause growth and results. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, we can rest on the assurance of God’s promise that transformation will come. He’s not a liar.
When things seem difficult, it doesn’t always mean we made a mistake. God led Israel on a path that didn’t make sense when leaving Egypt, but it brought Him glory as He miraculously caused Israel to pass through the Red Sea while at the same time wiping out their enemy.
Part two. How do believers practically “put on Christ” and walk in the fullness of His authority and power? It stems from understanding our identity and access that Christ Himself established within us.
