This
is one of the most awesome of all the benefit that accrue to being in Christ.
It is as important as others but carries much weight because it embodies so
many other benefits. I call it “the onion benefit”. Now it reads thus;
“For
in Him we...have our being...”
Acts 17:28
Your
being is the totality of who you are ranging from your health,
marriage/relationships through your carrier/ministry and job etc. You will
agree with me that your being is as good as your relationship with Christ. One
change on meeting Christ just leads to another in succession. Let take the
young man that was born blind in John 9 as a case study.
He
was born blind; came in contact with Jesus and everything changed, his status
and identity so changed that he wasn’t known when he returned seeing. Apart
from all that, you will agree with me that that man who was born blind but now
seeing on meeting Jesus could now pursue a carrier, build his house, get
married and bare children etc now that he had met Christ.
Conclusively,
having our being in Christ should inspire meet Him now if you have not yet
given your life to Him or develop a closer fellowship Him. Have you not read
that;
“There
are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that
shall stand” Prov 19:21
That
is why you are admonished to;
“Commit
thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass” Psalms 37:5
Also
in Prov 16:3, you are admonished to;
“Commit
thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established”
This
is another typical Ark of Naoh which will be taken up soon; be wise enough to enter
it mow lest you have yourself to blame both in this world and that which is to
come. Shalom!
