He Who Is In You + Christ Church Event
Good morning Immanuel. The Spirit of God is the very presence and power of Jesus Christ in you and me!
“He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4).
Sometimes doesn’t it feel like the darkness is closing in, like the world is too evil to handle? There is so much injustice, so much anger, so much division, and so much violence. It all feels oppressive and heavy. It really is too much for us. We weren’t made to handle this much awareness of this much crisis. Friends, this is when we must remember and cling to these words from 1 John 4:4: “He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”
Satan is the prince of this world, and he does wreak havoc. He is far more powerful than you or me. He is full of hate and wants to see evil and darkness thrive. So why do we not fear and tremble? Because of who is in us, the Spirit of God! He is the very presence and power of Jesus Christ in you and me. And Christ is Lord of all. He is infinitely greater than Satan and all his forces.
Jesus already won the war, but Satan is still scrapping and fighting. He is on borrowed time and is no match for the victorious King who dwells in every believer. What an assurance for all who follow Jesus! In the words of Martin Luther:
The Prince of Darkness grim,
We tremble not for him;
His rage we can endure,
For lo! his doom is sure,
One little word shall fell him.
