DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, MAY 10, 2012
THE OPERATION BELONGS TO GOD
Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. Colossians 2:12
The bible tells us that we are complete in Christ Jesus. We are buried with Christ in baptism and we are risen with him in resurrection. How does this all work: "through faith in the operation of God." God is working out our resurrection--He is working "everything together for good" (Romans8:28) to bring us to abundant life in Christ Jesus. He is working on our faith, building it, causing us to believe the impossible. He is renewing our hope and strengthening our hand. He is operating in every circumstance of our life so that we will be who He designed us to be: complete in Christ Jesus.
Today, let us have faith in the operation of God.
