Have you ever had dreams?
Dreams for life to be much better than it is right now?
Better relationships.
Better finances.
Better health.
Better…everything?
Is your life – just ok? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a life that’s “Better Than Ok?
Jesus came to make and show us that we are a new type of human. That human has supernatural qualities on the inside of them. That human is YOU!
2 Corinthians 5:17 (TPT) says, “Now, if anyone is enfolded into Christ, he has become an entirely new creation. All that is related to the old order has vanished. Behold, everything is fresh and new. Or ‘Behold, a new order has come!’” You’re not just a new person but a new KIND of person.
Jesus didn’t come just to make you better; He came to show you who you are. Ephesians 2:22 (TPT) says, “This means that God is transforming each one of you into the Holy of Holies, his dwelling place, through the power of the Holy Spirit living in you!” Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” TINY. MATTERS.
What God has placed in you is huge and God’s provision is ALWAYS greater than the need. But hearing this and knowing this isn’t enough. We start by believing what Jesus did for us on the cross, but even this only gets us to the doorway. We’re still not entering into the rest of knowing that He has taken care of it.
It’s still head knowledge, and while renewing our mind is critical, it won’t produce the rest of God. This rest must be experienced, firsthand, from Christ Himself. Nobody else can do it for you, you must enter into it yourself.
When your priority becomes to experientially know Christ, instead of checking all of the boxes and making it a “works” thing, you begin to truly understand what’s inside of you.
