"The extent we believe we are righteous in Christ is the extent we will see resurrection life flowing into every area of our lives!"
Wherever the revelation of righteousness goes, resurrection life springs forth. The extent we believe we are righteous in Christ by faith is the extent we will see resurrection life flowing into every area of our lives—from our spirits, to our souls, to our physical bodies.
Many times, the trouble lies with the soul (our thoughts and emotions), which is the bridge between the spirit and the body. Is your soul overwhelmed by your senses, having become more conscious of your failures and your circumstances than of your righteous standing in Christ?
Don't feel condemned about it. Instead, simply start fixing your mind on the fact that you are the righteousness of God in Christ. This week, start your day with a grace-based daily devotional that reminds you of how loved you are by the Lord. On your commute or in your free time at home, listen to sermons that remind you of the perfect work of Jesus’ at the cross that has made you righteous in Him. Spend time in the Word of God to behold the beauty of Jesus and see how as He is righteous, favored, successful, healthy, and whole—so are you in this world.
As you fill your mind with the truth of your righteous standing in Christ, you are allowing the resurrection life in your spirit to permeate your soul (the mind and emotional realm). Then you will start seeing that resurrection life also flow into your physical body, bringing healing, strength, and wholeness. This is what it means to experience the blessing in 3 John 2—“that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers”!
