TOPIC: You Are Not Different From Christ (TREM Devotional 25 August 2021)

“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.” Romans 8: 16-17 KJV

We are the executors of the promises that God has made to us. We are the ones that are supposed to speak on His behalf. When we speak, it is a done deal because “we are heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ.” So, you are not different from Christ. It is a religious mind that makes you always see yourself different from Christ. We say, “after all He is Christ and I am man.”

We are not ordinary, we are spirit beings. The day you became born again, you received all it takes to function like God. We are spirit beings trying to catch up with the world; that is why the renewal of our mind is important. You are not trying to know how it works. You are trying to get your mind to accept that it is finished. Do you know that you are already healed? God does not see you in that situation. There is nothing missing in the life of Jesus and as He is, so are we.

Your mind is telling you that you can’t make it in life, that you will fail, and that others are called to be successful but you are not; your mind says others are to be called to be world champions but you are not. Your mind is lying to you! But your spirit says that is who you are.

When Adam was naming the animals, the scripture says whatever name he called them so they were; God did not change it. Remember the Word of Jesus: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father” (John 14:12 KJV). Who lied to you? Who told you that you are limited?
