2023 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES – MESSAGE.
In their ignorance, some Christians sing songs like “Draw me nearer to you, O Lord!” Others are concerned that their prayers won’t go beyond the ceiling. They believe God is far above in Heaven while they are down below on Earth. The truth is, you don’t need your prayers to reach the sky or to draw closer to the Lord because He’s already inside you! Ask yourself, “How much “nearer” can I get to someone who’s right inside me?”
Do you get it now? The God to whom you pray is right inside you, where you are, under the ceiling! Christianity is Christ in you, not Christ with you, or among you, but in you. There’s a distinct difference. When you realise that this great God of glory, in all His fullness and power, truly lives in you, it’ll change the way you think and the way you live; you’ll have a completely different perspective on life. This is why you need to practise and train yourself to have the consciousness of the indwelling Christ. Have the mentality of Jesus.
When He was on earth, He lived in union with the Father, and was constantly mindful of the Father’s indwelling presence. In our opening verse, where He said, “…the Father who dwells in Me…,” He was referring to the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is co-equal with 29 ONE YEAR TWO YEAR God. He is the Father who lives in you! So, you see, He’s not far away; He’s in you! 1 Corinthians 6:17 talks about our inseparable union with Jesus; it says, “But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.”
This is the reason you can enjoy rich fellowship with Him, and walk in union with Him. There’s no need to try to reach out to Him, crying out as though He were far away. Everywhere you are, He’s in you, and you’re in Him. He is your home; you were born into Him when you were born again.
2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation…”; you live, move and have your being in Him. Like Jesus, be bold to say, “I am in the Father, and the Father is in me” (John 14:11). Glory to God!
