“Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.” (Ephesians 3:17, NLT)

A thought came to me as I pondered Christ settling down and being at home in my heart.

"Lord, is there any chance that You would take over the management of the whole house and teach me how to glorify you by operating it according to Your principles? Would you do for me as You did that closet?

Would You take the responsibility to give me the desire and power to obey You as You have promised?"

“...Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.” (Philippians 2:12-13, NLT)

His face lit up as He replied, "I'd love to! That is what I want to do. You cannot be a victorious Christian in your own strength. Let me do it through you, for you and show you how to apply my Word to your life. That is the way. But," He added slowly, "I am just a guest. I have no authority to proceed, since the property is not mine."

Dropping to my knees, I said, "Lord, You have been a guest and I have been the host. From now on I am going to be the servant. You are going to be the owner and Master."

Running as fast as I could I took out the title deed to the house describing its assets and liabilities, location and situation. I eagerly signed the house over to Him alone for time and eternity.

"Here," I said. "Here it is, all that I am and have, forever. Now You run the house. I'll just remain with You as a servant and friend."

“So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life - your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life - and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.” (Romans 12:1, The Message)

Things are different since Jesus Christ has settled down and has made His home in my heart.

“that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite him in. And I ask him that with both feet planted firmly on love,” (Ephesians 3:17, The Message)

P.S. I am indebted to Robert Boyd Munger for some of these concepts.

• What will be different for you, when you let our Lord Jesus settel down in your heart?

Rejoicing, On the Victory Side!
