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!
