I am COMPLETE in Christ!

Have been feeling the..

"urgh why am I always like this"

"people dun like you la! you have to change to fit in!!" (yea..... right!)

or..

"enough, stop coz you're too much" punyer feeling

That's how I see it.
That's how we see it.
That's how man sees it.
But I thank God He doesn't. He sees us differently, because of His Son.

God spoke to me just at the right time through Pastor Prince. And, I'm blessed! =)

When you look at yourself, what do you see? Do you see someone who is imperfect and lacking in many areas, or someone who is whole and complete in Christ?

Colossians 2:10
"... and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power"

There are believers who see themselves as incomplete. This is because they are conscious of their lack and imperfections. They say, “There are so many things imperfect about me! How can I be complete if there are so many things I am lacking in?” They see their weaknesses, condemn themselves and feel inferior to others.

The good news is that God does not see the way man sees. Man sees the flesh. God sees the spirit. He sees us already complete in Christ. In spite of our imperfections, He sees us as new creations, partakers of His divine nature and more than conquerors over our imperfections. And He wants us to see ourselves the way He sees us.

Know that what we think we need or are lacking in, whether it is godly character traits or physical health, we already have in Christ.

I used to think that I had to ask God to make me more patient, until I realised one day that Jesus is my patience. Since then, I no longer ask God to make me wiser either, because Jesus is my wisdom. (1 Corinthians 1:30) I am not waiting to receive more healing because Jesus is my complete healing at this moment. And I am not yearning for peace and rest one day because Jesus is my peace and rest today. Right now, I have everything. There is no lack or defect because I stand complete in Christ.

My friend, you are not going to be complete in Christ — you ARE ALREADY complete in Christ! And what remains for you is to walk daily in that completeness by believing that it is true and confessing that what you need right now, Jesus is to you. He is your complete forgiveness, complete righteousness, complete favour and complete protection.

So don’t focus on the lack you see in your life. Focus, instead, on how, in Christ, you are complete in everything at this moment! And instead of weaknesses, lack and imperfections, you will see His strength, wholeness, soundness and completeness showing up through you!

I'm blessed. Are you? Thus, I'm COMPLETE in Christ and so are you, friend! =) Hooray!




Jesus, the "could-be" missing puzzle piece in your life. He's the completeness. I'm complete because of Him. What bout you? =)
