Recently at Living Word, Pastor Mac talked about the truth that when you are saved, you are immediately brought into the kingdom of God. Beyond that, you have a choice. You can choose to grow in your relationship with Christ and become more and more like Him. You can also choose to let your flesh rule and ignore the leadings of the Spirit.
In which of these scenarios will the world see Christ in you?
The first one, of course! When we choose to change our ways and follow Christ, the world notices something different about us. Christ becomes our hope! He becomes our future, our expectation. We start to see things through His way of thinking and operate with Bible-based thought patterns. We confidently expect that God will show up in the direst of circumstances and deal with whatever issue we're facing. There's no room for condemnation to undermine this expectation when you prioritize God in your life.
So how does this happen? Christ formed in you is a product of prayer. You can get beyond the dictates of the flesh through prayer and allowing the Holy Spirit to pray through you. You can also pray that Christ would be formed in others. When Christ is formed in you, that's when you will make a spiritual difference in this world.
