Meditate On
…as He is, so are we in this world.
1 John 4:17
Keep
Looking Unto Jesus
God loves to point you to His Son, Jesus,
because as Jesus is right now, so are you in this world! The enemy, on the
other hand, loves to have you focus on yourself or man.
For example, he loves to point you to your
faults as well as your spouse’s faults. He makes you look at yourself and ask,
“Why am I so impatient?” He makes you look at your spouse and wonder, “Why are
you so slow to change in this area?” The enemy will never suggest that as
Christ is, so are you. Your challenge then, is to look away from the “I,” look
at the Man at the Father’s right hand and say, “As Jesus is, so am I in this
world. And as Jesus is, so is my spouse!”
It’s the same when it comes to symptoms of
sickness you may experience. If you’ve been told that you have a heart
condition, the enemy will point you to yourself and say, “Can you feel the
pain? It’s coming back, isn’t it?” My friend, that’s the time you need to say,
“No, no, no! Look at Jesus. His heart is in perfect condition. As His heart is,
so is my heart in this world!”
“But, Pastor Prince, what good can happen
by just looking at Jesus?”
The Bible says that as you behold the glory
of the Lord, the Holy Spirit in you goes to work, transforming you into the
very same image from glory to glory (2 Corinthians 3:18). My friend, your true
identity—who you truly are and what you have—is found in Him. So keep looking
at Jesus and His life will manifest in yours!
