Christ Unveiled! – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional June 26th

(The Expression Of The Christ-life!)

TO THE BIBLE: Colossians 1:27
“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.”

LET’S TALK
Christianity is the unveiling of Christ in you; it’s the outworking of the Word of God in a human person.

When you’re born again, you become the expression or image of the Word of God, so much so that all the steps you take—all the things you do—are the “outworkings” of the Word of God.

When Jesus walked the earth, He was the unveiling of the Word. He was the manifestation of divinity, the effulgence of the glory of God (Hebrews 1:3). You’re the express image of Christ today.

Everywhere you go, you’re “Christ alive in the world.” In your home, at school, and in your neighbourhood, you’re the Christ they see. Your communication, therefore, shouldn’t be at the ordinary level of life; when you speak, speak the wisdom of God.

The words you speak, the life you live, and the way you do what you do should communicate the presence of Jesus. That way, when people look at you, they’ll see the glory of the new creation.

This is the higher life in Christ! Become conscious of it; carry that awareness with you everywhere. Practise it consciously until it works out in you unconsciously.

Don’t say, “You know I’m still human!” Being in Christ, your humanity has been supplanted by His divinity. You ought to give vent to the divine life in you: expressing the Christ-life is God’s dream for you.

Become conscious that as the Father has life in Himself, so do you (John 5:26). That life is the transcendent life; it’s not susceptible to sickness or defeat.

If you feel pressure from the adversary, say, “I’m strengthened; I’m empowered; greater is He that’s in me than he that’s in the world. I’m the healed of Christ. I’m born of God, and I’ve overcome the world!”

Go Deeper
John 1:14; Colossians 1:27

Speak:
My life is the expression of the Christ-life. Christ is unveiled in me to my world today; His divinity is manifested through me, and I live in the consciousness of the higher life in Christ! Thank you, Lord, for your wisdom, ability, and power, that’s inherent and revealed in and through me today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
