Real Christianity, authentic Christianity, is God alive and functioning in a human being. It is the pulsating life of Christ in a human body; Jesus come to make His home in you.
You are a child of God legally, because God declared you righteous the moment you received Christ; and you are His child vitally, because His very life and nature were imparted to your spirit. Both are true at the same time.
This is what gives you boldness. You do not approach God as an outsider hoping for a favour; you come as a son, into a house that is your own.
Live today with that consciousness, and see how quickly fear and inferiority lose their grip on you.
Prayer: Dear Father, thank you for making me your child, legally and vitally. I live in the reality of your nature in me, and I come boldly to you today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
