CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST

MEMORIZE: "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."Galatians 2:20.

SCRIPTURE READING: Galatians 2:19-21.

"19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God. 20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain."

EXPOSITION:

After the fall of Man, humankind was destined for eternal damnation. Man’s disobedience led to our separation from God  our fallen state could not withstand the presence of the Almighty God. Sin gained power over Man and humankind became victims of their own fleshy desires. But thank God for Jesus Christ, who took the fall for Man and redeemed our lost souls. To be crucified with Christ, simply means that we have totally surrendered to Him, by faith, and have turned away from our own selfish desires and motives. Because of what Christ did, we can confidently stand and say that we are in Him and He is in us. Though we live in our earthly bodies, our spirit has been regenerated. We have been redeemed. We have a glorious future ahead of us, and it is by faith we believe this and continue to live out the will of God for our lives. We live a life of faith now, of total trust in our Savior, Jesus Christ, the Son of the Almighty God, our Father, who never stopped loving us and never will. He has been there for us far before we know Him or even thought of coming to Him.

The price of our redemption is totally paid in full on the cross at Calvary. Henceforth, I am indebted to Him all through my life to live not even for myself but for Him alone who have redeemed me. Hallelujah!!! I am a bona fide son of God, and joint heir with Christ Jesus. Hallelujah.

PRAYER POINT:

Kindly make this confession with me: 

Jesus, my Savior, thank you for what you did for me and for everyone else on this earth. It is because of you and your love, I can confidently say that you live in me. I will continue to confess this until my time to return home, to you, finally comes. Thank you for this beautiful life I now have in you, O Lord. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
