Open the eyes of my heart Lord!
The greatest need a believer has is to receive the Spirit of revelation to know Christ better. This knowledge will give you the spiritual understanding of who Christ is and who you are in Him.
The ?eyes of your heart? must be opened so that you can see the truth and the reality of these spiritual matters. Once they do become real to you, you will begin to live the life of freedom and victory Christ has won for you. Your natural understanding will never grasp these matters but God?s power at work in you will bring you to comprehend what you can hope for and confidently expect through your position in Christ.
Key Thought
You have inherited the riches of God?s glory and grace by being in Christ. This means God?s own enabling power is at work in you so that you can live a life of purpose, authority and victory. With this comes the responsibility of living under the government of God through Christ.
Prayer
Lord, help me to see my glorious position in Christ and to take up my place of authority. I ask You to open up the eyes of my heart so that I can receive this spiritual understanding.
Discipleship Steps
Spiritual truths are precious and costly. It takes time to receive them and assimilate them into your life. And yet without such spiritual experience you cannot progress very far in your Christian life. Give God time to speak to you. Learn to meditate on these truths as you read the Word and pray. Spend a special time in prayer today asking God to help you discover your true position in Christ.
