We Are Complete In Him

April  14

We are complete in him

And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all

principality and power:  Colossians 2:10

Look not too much at thyself, there is nothing but vanity, weakness, sin, and misery there; but thy God hath united thee to His beloved Son.

Jesus is one with thee, and all that He has is thine. Thou art unholy, but He is made unto thee sanctification; and He will sanctify thee wholly, body, soul, and spirit.

Thou art foolish, but He is made unto thee wisdom: and He will make thee wise unto salvation.

Thou art weak, but He is thy strength; and thou canst do all things through His strengthening thee.

Thou art unrighteous, but He is made unto thee righteousness; and thou art not only righteous, but the righteousness of God in Him.

Thou art lost, but He is made unto thee redemption; He has redeemed thee from the curse of God, and from the present evil world, and He will redeem thee from death.

In thyself thou art not only incomplete, but wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked; but in Jesus thou art holy, wise, strong, righteous, rich, happy; in a word, COMPLETE.

View thyself, then, at least occasionally, as COMPLETE  IN   CHRIST, who is the head of all principality and power.

Still onward urge your heavenly way,

Dependent on him day by day,

His presence still entreat;

His precious name for ever bless,

Your glory, your strength, and righteousness,

In Him you are complete.
