KEY SCRIPTURE: Colossian 3:4 KJV “When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.”

The preceding verse to our key scripture says”Col 3:3 KJV “For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.”.This verse shows us how Christ became our life. On the cross, our Lord took our place. He became sin. This was our life and nature. Within this nature was absolute failure and total dominance by Satan. We were children and bore the very life of Satan John 8:44 .The only means by which men could become children of God was the complete killing of this nature called sin, as revealed in 2nd Corinth 5:212Co 5:21 KJV” For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” Jesus’ death was the end of our old nature.

At the resurrection of Jesus, we resurrected with Him. Hebrews 2:10 put it this way,” For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings” Jesus through His suffering has brought us into glory. We share His life, we are partakers of His glory. We are like the fruit of a planted seed. He was the seed that was planted, while we are the fruits.
The life of the fruit is the very life of the seed, and that is what we are. Jesus is our life. This life which is our real life, is hidden in Christ and God. Jesus is one with the Father, His life is the life of the Father, and that is where we are. We dwell in God.

In heaven, there are no two or three thrones, there is only one. Rev 4:2 KJV” And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.” The Lord Jesus is the one John saw on the throne because He is the alpha and the Omega, the God of the Universe, the Father of Glory. Isa 9:6 KJV “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Our life is hidden in Jesus in God. Hallelujah!. We are physically living and walking on this earth, yet the life we have is Christ ( Gal 2:20). We must act, think and relate with men as Christ would have done. That is our real personality. We are actually from above and carry Christ’s authority and Christ’s power. This is the reason there are always angels to assist us, for we are sons of God. Heb 1:14 KJV” Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?”

These truths emphasize our uncompromised security. It also shows us how we ought to live on this earth. We must understand our mission and mandate our methods to fulfil our mission.

CONFESSION.

Glory be to the Lord. Christ is my life, and I live in heaven, yet I am living on this earth. My life here is the life of Christ
I have His life, so I bear His authority, His power, His favour with the Father, and the same angelic support and protection. What a life. I am light to my word and answer to the questions of many.
