“To whom God would make known what is
the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in
you, the hope of glory” – Colossians 1:27
LIGHT FOR NOW: Christ in you is the hope of glory.
The mystery behind every believer is Christ in
him, which is the hope of glory. In other words, once you receive Christ into
your life, you become a carrier of God’s glory. The strength of the Christian
faith is Christ in him. Our text for today tells us that when Christ lives in a
man, he becomes a partaker of God’s glory. So, a believer in Christ Jesus does
not hope for the worst in life. No! The hope of every believer is glorious.
Hallelujah! What defines your hope is not any kind of situation or condition
you are facing, but Christ does.
Remember that Christ Jesus was reproached so
that you might be glorified. You must be consistent in what you are hoping for.
Hope is the confident expectation of something. The Bible records in Romans
5:18 that Abraham “against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many
nations; according to that which was spoken”. Also, Apostle Paul in
Romans 5:2 says, “By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand,
and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God”. When Christ is not the
hope of your glory, you may easily be distracted by the greed for material
things. And when your expectations are not met, you may become depressed. In
the contrary, when you focus on Christ and not on material things, the joy of
the Lord becomes your strength. Hallelujah!!!
INSTRUCTION:
Let your hope be in Christ.
PRAYER: I am in Him justified and He is in me
glorified, in Jesus Name.
QUOTE: Glory is not a feeling, but tangible.
