DAILY VITAMIN
- The Perfect Life Is Yours
"Fear the Lord, you his holy people, for those who fear him lack nothing. The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing." (Psalm 34:9-10 NIV)
God is recreating a Perfect world in you. That was what man had before he fell. The Bible says there were no weeds, thorns, sin, death and decay before the fall (Romans 8:20-21). No rot or failure. Man knew no failure, no struggling, no hardship; and when Jesus died and rose again, He restored that perfect world into our identity again.
Remember that the garden was called the garden of God. So it was just a physical place, it was also a spiritual experience, like the very Kingdom. And Jesus says it is within you.
In other words, through Christ we have access once again to that perfect life of dominion God prepared for man; and through Him we can exercise it in our daily lives. Your case can be different from the rest of the world. Recall that this is God's original plan (see Mal 3:18), and living with the spiritual mentality of this whole new world you inhabit and inhold is how you do it. All of a sudden, you just notice yourself being favoured when others are denied (Job 22:28-29).
It isn't luck, it is His gift to you. Become conscious of it, and live in that consciousness every day. others have a down time but not you, because you are blessed and highly favoured in Christ. Understand this, and you will never be the same again; for filled in you is all of Christ's goodness (Romans 8:30). That is, everything that makes Him Christ including this abundant life.
