And Christ lives within you, so even though your body will die because of sin, the Spirit gives you life because you have been made right with God.
—Romans 8:10 NLT
Everything that lives is actually in the process of dying — everything, that is, except for those animated and empowered by the Spirit of the living Christ. The power that raised Jesus from the dead is actually at work in us. Not only does the Spirit empower us to find life now, but his presence ensures life forever. We don't stand under judgment but have passed from death to life (John 5:24), and the Spirit is the life within us that is our assurance that we are joined to the Creator of the universe and the Son of God who was raised from the dead. The risen Christ is alive within us!
Everlasting Father, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, I thank you for the gift of your grace in Jesus. Without him, I would be nothing. Because of him, by the power of the Holy Spirit within me, I have been reborn to eternal life. Thank you! In Jesus' name. Amen.
