YOU HAVE BEEN IN-CHRISTED
Dr. Mike Okonkwo

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)

Oftentimes, the problem with us as believers is that we fail to appropriate what God has already done for us in Christ. Beloved, whenever you see yourself as flesh, you are limited and you miss the point. God does not see you as you are in the flesh. He does not see you as a sinner or failure. No! He sees you in Christ because you have been ‘in-Christed’. When you made Jesus your Lord and Saviour, you became one with Him in the Spirit. Colossians 1:27 says that “… Christ in you, the hope of glory:” Beloved, simply put, Christ in you is the end of shame, embarrassment frustration, disappointment and failure. Remember, He quickened you, raised you up and made you to sit with Christ in heavenly places far above principalities and powers. That is why you can never fail.

With Jesus on the inside and working on the outside, you have more than what it takes to succeed. Jesus didn’t have to die, but He did so you can walk in royalty. He wants you to be blessed, so refuse to be satisfied with the crumbs. Put on a success mindset. Think big! Talk big! Meditate regularly on these truths and no power or circumstance can overwhelm you. Let the enemy know that the Greater One lives in you and he will flee from you. Don’t ever forget that what God has done for one is an evidence of what He will do for another. You will not be denied. I cancel every delay in your life. My God will grant you speed. He will compress time for you. I declare over your life that the things that hitherto stood against you will begin to bow to you. Whatever has resisted in the past will submit to you.
