Me, Himself and I AM

Welcome to the Lifestyles of the Anointed 

13 For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. (Philippians 2:13)

Take a minute and think about your relationship with Christ, I'm sure what comes to mind is how He has been working in you, for you and before you. How sweet it is to be loved by Him?! Truthfully the relationship most of us have with Christ is intangible but at the same time so powerful, we can't touch His love but oh do we feel it and see it working on our behalf. Metaphorically it's just like a volcano, a seemingly normal exterior with nothing special to describe but then on the inside molten lava, raw power stewing and moving. 

17 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!( 2 Corinthians 5:17)

The most encouraging part to this walk is that truth actually comes to pass, what the scriptures tell us we get to watch happen right before our own eyes. In Christ we get to shed our old selves and start over in the lap of His power. Christ uses what we've been through, what we have experienced and what we have learned and then forms that into a new person, isn't that amazing? As time goes on and the relationship continues to grow its like we forget that we were once separate, we forget the osmosis that has now taken place in our lives.  

20 My old self has been crucified with Christ.[a] It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.( Galatians 2:20)

As a child of God it's no longer I am but "Me, Himself and I am" that lives within us, we become the resting place of the God Head. Just imagine in a life that was once victim to the whims of the world there is now power inconceivable, limitless potential, and the blueprint to the master's plans. 

Be encouraged believer, son or daughter, God saw fit to chose you, to instill His belief in you, to call you to be one of His own. Be encouraged beloved that today is just one day in destiny and God is surely working to perfect everything concerning you. Know what power is fueling your drive, what strength in backing your ambition, what author wrote the book on you...
