"...So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness... For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority... God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross." Co1.2:6- 12 We are so quick to lose sight of the fact that when we have received salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, that we have been made alive with Christ and that our debt of sin is cancelled, and that weaknesses in our physical bodies does not mean that there are any weaknesses in our spiritual power and authority through Christ. The passage even tells us that we have been given fullness in Christ. In Ephes. 1:18-20 we are told that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work within us who believe. Let us learn to walk in what He says we are, not in what we sometimes feel like we are.

Alive with Christ
