All Real Beginnings Lie With Christ.

And raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2.6.

I recall when I first began to serve the Lord that I prayed He would raise me up with Him. I thought at the time that if the Lord should raise me up with Him I would then have the power to do God’s will. It was wrong for me to pray like this, for I had started from myself. All real beginnings lie with Christ. The Bible says that I have been raised with Christ. This is an accomplished fact. Remember that the more we turn in to look at ourselves, the worse we become.
