Scripture for the Day – April 10, 2020
Colossians 1:27…. the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Do you know that God dwells in you if you are a born-again believer?
I Corinthians 3:16: Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
I Corinthians 6:19: Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own.
I John 4:4: You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
I Peter 3:15: But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear;
Philippians 2:13: For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
Think about it! If you’re a born-again child of God, the Creator of heaven and earth lives and works on the inside of you! Our destiny as believers is to grow up in God; To be fully conformed to the image of His Son Jesus Christ. This is defined clearly in Romans 8:29 which says, “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son,” To see this conforming happen, we must allow the Word of God, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to manifest on the outside what’s on the inside.
We must walk out Paul’s’ prayer in Colossians 1:9-11 which says, “For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and long-suffering with joy;”
Keep in mind, that God is inside you!
