Transformation Is Christ In Me (Daily Devotional)

Hi everyone, welcome to Living Supernaturally. Thank you once again for this opportunity to minister to you through God’s word and prayer. This week, we’ve been talking about transformation and we have come to the final day. Today, we talk about transformation is Christ in me. Colossians chapter 1, verses 24 to 27, ‘I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God, the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.’ In the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit came upon certain people to empower them for a service and would return back but when the Holy Spirit came to us in the New Testament, we received the permanent indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. The key to transformation in Christ is Christ living in us. God is not far away up in the heavens looking down upon us telling us what to do but the bible teaches us that Christ in us is the hope of glory. The bible also teaches us that the Spirit who is in us is greater than he that is in the world. Christ came to live in us and among us, He has come to guide us, to transform us to be like Jesus. You and I are new creatures in Christ. When Christ is in us, He changes us completely, He transforms our mind, our will, our emotions, He changes our thoughts, our characters and we are changed from the inside out. Christ in us is the hope of glory. In a world where we see that there is no hope; sometimes it is very easy to lose hope, we can hold onto this verse, Christ in us, the hope of glory. Let us pray, Father, we thank you for this entire week where we studied and learned about transformation. Thank you for the ways in which you choose to transform our lives. I pray that we will be recipients of your transforming power, that we will learn to walk in your ways, we will learn to obey your word and know that you are transforming us to be more like you. We thank you for this week and I pray that you will touch each of our lives and use us for your glory, we give you all the praise and glory, in Jesus’s name we pray, Amen.
