Are you aware that you are one with Jesus Christ?

#RhemaThread
Are you born again? If your answer to that question is "yes", then you have come into union with Jesus. There's no distinction between you and Him right now. We have become inseparably one with Him; so united that the Bible says we are one Spirit with Him (1 Cor.6:17).
That's mind blowing, isn't it? We are one with the God of Heaven and Earth.
Jesus, Himself, showed us how vital this union is. It's not just a figurative expression. We are literally one with Him. That is why we are able to live and exercise authority in His name.
In John 15:5 He said, “I am the vine and you are the branches. Those who stay united with me, and I with them, are the ones who bear much fruit; because apart from me you can’t do a thing" (CJB).
Look at that. This shows how real our union with Him is.
There's no distinction between a vine and it's branches. The branches are an extension of the vine.
In the same way, we are the extension of Jesus on the Earth. He is the Head, and we are members of His body (the Church).
The Head and the body come together to form Christ.
The Church is the part of Him that functions in the Earth and manifests His excellencies and perfections (1 Peter 2:9).
Knowing this, you can never be mediocre in life, because you are a part of this body.
You have a unique purpose and role to fulfill. You are not ordinary; never look down on yourself. Ephesians 5:30 says we are "members of His flesh and of His bones". That means that everything in Him is in us.
Now you see why we're declared righteous and holy? We're righteous because Jesus is righteous; we're sons of God because He is the Son of God; all things are ours because all things are His. How awesome is that? To know that everything in Him is in us.
His divinity is at work in us, and His glory is manifested through us.
Do you know why it's impossible for you to fail when you're conscious of this?
We cannot fail because His wisdom and ability flow through us.
This is what gave Paul the boldness to say, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13).
There's no problem that's too difficult for us to solve. Christ has become our wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30).
The same wisdom that created the world is at work in us.
There's no task that is too difficult for us to accomplish; we have God's power at work in us.
His life flows through us; this is why we don't get sick.
When you understand what this union we have means, your life will...
...never be the same again. He is in us, and we are in Him; inseparably one.
"This mystery [of two becoming one] is great but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the Church" (Ephesians 5:32 AMP).
This baffles the natural mind, but it is our reality.
The Christian is no ordinary person. We are associates of the God-kind. We have the DNA of Christ. We are not of this world.
Don't think and live like a mere mortal, because you're not. We are connected to divinity.
