This is an amazing truth, that The Greater One lives in you! You Have His Supernatural Life In You. Everything He is, is in you. I love the verse in 1 John.
1 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.
Because the Greater One is in you, He calls you, yes, you, and overcomer. Not because you are great, but because He is Great! Whether you are living this or not, you are changed and different. You have a new spirit within you.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
You have been spiritually awakened; you are not who you used to be. The old man is dead and buried with Christ. Everything about you in your spirit has been made new and alive unto Christ.
The Message translation says it this way “Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life emerges! Look at it! All this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and Him,…”
You have Jesus Christ in you and on your side. We have His supernatural ability and life inside us now that we did not have before He came into our lives.
1 John4:17
Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.
Do you see that? We are just like Him, but many times we fail to see ourselves this way and then we fall back to who the world tells us we are. They don’t know you anymore, so stop listening to them, and listen to the Spirit that lives in you instead!
I love this quote from Andrew Wommack – “ God’s words spoken from the outside paint a picture on the inside, and pictures on the inside determine actions on the outside”.
This week, think about the New Person you already are, not trying to be. It will change your words and your actions.
Remember, you are Loved, you are Righteous, and you are Hus!
Love this! Thank you Colleen!
Thank you dear sister for these words of wisdom. I truly need to start seeing myself as healed whole and well instead of stuck in the pattern of pain and sickness. You’re the BEST COLLEEN! from Colleen in Massachusetts
Colleen Tedesco,what you just said stands for me too.It’s hard to not focus on the pain because every move is pain.However ,our father’s word is true and we won’t give up.We are so loved. Cheryl Berger from College Station Tx
Colleen,I’m so grateful for you guys and all the Healing Journeys teachers.
On the one side there is the pain the inability disability frustration that tells me I cannot do what I need or want to do.
On the other side there is The Truth… the Word the Lord Jesus Holy Spirit tells me I can do all things… that as He is so am I in this world.
It is in the midst of these two where I decide to put my focus.
It rarely looks perfect, but my decision is The Truth..and therein I rest.
