Union With Christ
Are you looking to level up your relationship with Jesus Christ? Want to feel the power and presence of the Lord in a real, tangible way? Then, you need to understand what you already have in your union with Christ.
Union with Christ is a fancy term that refers to the spiritual bond between you and Jesus. In essence, when you put your faith in Jesus, you become united with him in his death, resurrection, and ascension.
The moment you become a believer in Jesus, the Holy Spirit makes Union with Christ a reality in your life. He takes up residence in you, forging a spiritual connection between you and Christ.
Being united with Christ comes with a ton of benefits, including being justified before God, forgiveness of sins, being adopted as God’s child, direct access to the Father, and a seat in heavenly places with Christ.
Living out your union with Christ requires you to grow closer to him every day through prayer, reading the Bible, obeying his commands, and finally (the hard part) letting him transform you into his likeness. This means saying goodbye to your old self (including your old desires, habits, and ways of thinking) and living for Jesus, all while sharing the good news of salvation with others.
It has the power to bring a whole new level of hope and peace to your life. But, it’s not enough to just read about it. You have to take action and make it a reality. So, make a commitment to pursue this relationship with Jesus every day. The reward is a life overflowing with his power and presence. Don’t miss out on what God has in store for you through your incredible bond with Christ.
