2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

This is probably one of the most powerful verses in the Bible. I can take this scripture and teach a whole month on it. This scripture shows the position of the believer; it is the believer’s address. It is our final place of rest. In Christ, we have arrived because all things are in Him. The opening scripture says, if any man be in Christ....... This means that the day you were born again, you were placed or immersed in Christ. Now Christ is your place of abode and residence. What a life!

Today, in many parts of the world, we see so many folks who are disadvantaged. Many are suffering terribly. When you hear what some folks are going through your ear will tingle. Poverty has ravaged many lives; many are sick; some are living in war torn countries with lots of lack and fear. In all of these things, what is the lot of the believer in Christ?

To be in Christ is not religion; it is more than joining a church. It is about being put into Christ. It means Christ is now your home and realm of living. Hence even though we live in this world, we are actually living in another world called Christ. And in that world there are no disadvantages; there are no limitations; there is no sickness and disease. This is beyond what the human mind can comprehend.

If you are born again, you are already in Christ. Therefore refuse to be disadvantaged in life. Don’t accept the low life and never indulge in mediocrity. Many have come to believe that they are disadvantaged because of their family, location or country of origin. When you come into Christ, that is not an issue any more. You were born a Victor and not a victim. You can live in perpetual victory.

Christ is the richest place on earth. To be in Christ means you were immersed into absolute victory, untold success and unquestionable advantage. This is where you are today. Start renewing your mind to conform to this truth. And begin to confess who you are in Christ and your rights and privileges. In Christ is victory forever. Praise God!
