Your Journey to Victoryනියැදිය

Christ in Me

My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. —Galatians 2:20, NLT

 Many who have caught glimpses of the victorious Christian life have, through the arm of flesh, built up their self-confidence, which is a poor copy of faith and triumph. Self-confidence is no greater than self. Real faith is as great as God and has its foundation in His nature and person. Such confidence in God then is superior to every other expression in life because it is founded in the person of God Himself. It is not built through striving. It comes entirely through surrender. It dwells in real humility, which is a far cry from self-criticism and condemnation. Real faith moves mountains and is the yielded partnership with His nature. I find significance and confidence when I discover that as a born-again believer, I am in Christ. Therein lies my significance. As a result, my significance is more substantial than I ever could have wished for myself before my surrender to this perfect Father. Where can you see true confidence—at rest in His nature—operating in your life?

Point to Ponder

My confidence is in God’s faithfulness, and because Christ lives in me, I will be victorious.
