You need the life of God in you to live the God dimension lifestyle. The God dimension kind of life is the life of victory over sin, sickness, poverty, limiting thought pattern, mediocre mindset, etc.

The God dimension kind of life is living with conqueror’s mindset. The Bible declares in Romans 8:37, “Yet in all these things, we are more than conquerors.” It is a life illuminated by the light of God, which stands out in darkness.

Darkness is what has kept people away from living in God’s dimension and they continue to live in their old way of life. Thank God today is the acceptable day of salvation and you can embrace living in God’s dimension. I pray you turn away from darkness and embrace the light of God today in your life in Jesus Name, Amen.

Don’t allow darkness to keep you in perpetual ignorance of whom God is and cut you off from the glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 4:18, “Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.” It is only in God that you will have eternal life. Eternal life is the gift of God to mankind and it is the God’s dimension of life.

You can only walk away from darkness by being Born Again and your spirit recreated in Christ. When your spirit is recreated, you have the responsibility to walk out of darkness. You need the life of God in you to live in God’s Dimension.

Jesus triumphed over darkness on the Cross of Calvary and He nailed darkness to the cross. He nailed your sin, sickness, poverty, sorrow and ungodliness to the cross and blots away the handwriting of ordinances that was against us. Colossians 2:14, “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross.” Have your sins being nailed to the cross?

Living in God’s dimension is living a life above all limitations. Why? Because Jesus took out of the way every limitations and nailed it to His Cross. Jesus nailed it to “His Cross” and not “your cross”. Why continue to live in darkness and being cut off from the eternal life, which only is found in God? Romans 6:1 asked a pertinent question, “What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?”

Living in God’s dimension is to cruise in Christian Faith. It is very important that believers in Christ understand the realities of who they are is in Christ. The Bible says, we are gods (Psalm 82:6). Colossians 1:13 says, “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.”

Salvation is the gateway to living a higher life in Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” God saved us from sins and not imputing our trespasses unto us (2 Corinthians 5:19). In other words, not counting our past sin or painting the picture of our deadness but their destiny in Christ because Jesus took it away, Praise the Lord! And not only that He took it away; He hath given us the ministry of reconciliation so as reconcile the world with Christ.

The God kind of life is a life created in righteousness and true holiness – that is the life of Christ. God Has given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son (1 John 5:11). When you received Jesus as your personal savior, you received the nature of God and whatever cannot hold God down, cannot hold you down.
