Sorry for using my devotion book again but yesterday evenings was to good to pass up.

He Lives In You

"I work and struggle, using Christ's great strength that works so powerfully in me." Colossians 1:29


God was with Adam and Eve, walking with them in the cool of the day.

God was with Abraham, even calling the patriarch his friend.

God was with Moses and with the children of Israel.

God was with Peter, he could touch God's face. He was with James, he could watch Him sleep. Multitudes could hear His voice. God was with them.


But if you have His Spirit, God is In you... He will do what you cannot.

Example, imagine a million dollars being deposited into your checking account. To any observer you look the same, except for that goofy grin on your face. But really your not the same.

With God in you you have a million resources that you did not have before!

Can't stop worrying? Christ can. And He lives within you.

Can't forgive the jerk, forget the past, or forsake your bad habits? Christ can! And He lives within you.
