Today’s Daily Devotional
BIBLE MEDITATION
“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.”
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT
The key to living a victorious Christian life is to discover who you are in Christ. Many Christians have never discovered this. They remind me of the man who had an identity problem and an energy crisis at the same time. He didn’t know who he was and he was too tired to find out.
God doesn’t work from the outside in. He works from the inside out. God doesn’t modify our behavior in order to change us. He changes us in order to modify our behavior.
You’re never going to purify the water by painting the pump. That’s legalism, and that’s a dead end to discovering who you are in Christ.
ACTION POINT
As you study God’s Word, start a list: begin to write down those phrases that apply to you, like the phrase “in Christ.” Now that you are “in Christ,” the phrase “no condemnation” is one you should write down!
