For once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of Light [lead the lives of those native-born to the Light]. Ephesians 5:8
This is what we all need to share with each other all of the time: that we are now and forevermore in the Light. We need to constantly fellowship in the Truth that the Light has driven out the darkness. We can never hear it too much that the Light will never leave us or forsake us and that the Light will always be greater in us. Way too many of us think that we can be in darkness and in the Light and that is not how it works. Turn a light on in a room and the darkness leaves. Our peace is that we have complete and total victory because of Jesus.
For we are fellow workmen (joint promoters, laborers together) with and for God; you are God's garden and vineyard and field under cultivation, [you are] God's building. 1 Corinthians 3:9
But it is God Who confirms and makes us steadfast and establishes us [in joint fellowship] with you in Christ, and has consecrated and anointed us [enduing us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit]; [He has also appropriated and acknowledged us as His by] putting His seal upon us and giving us His [Holy] Spirit in our hearts as the security deposit and guarantee [of the fulfillment of His promise]. 2 Corinthians 1:21-22
We are one with Jesus so we can live like Jesus, love like Jesus, think like Jesus, expect like Jesus, have faith like Jesus, and grace like Jesus. Sin has been defeated for us so that we may be used by our Father to serve in the full capacity of Christ. We are now one with Jesus and there is now nothing impossible for us. Our Father can do through us what He did through Jesus and He can now use us in even greater ways because Jesus was so successful.
Our knowledge level will not hinder God from using us. Our doubts will not hinder Him either. If we are weak, He is strong through us. If we have an issue our Father will prune it out of us and the situation will work out for our good. God will Author our Faith, give us our Hope, teach us everything, give us gifts, meet our needs, insure our success, and it is all undeserved and free.
