In The Ark Of Safety

Colossians 3:3 "For ye are dead,and your life is hid with Christ in God".
As believers we are dead, dead to sin, dead to self, dead to the ways of this world, we are dead to the old man and all his ways. We are hid with Christ.

When you are hid in Christ, Christ is the only life that God sees as living. Christ is your life in the eyes of God, the life which you live you now live through Christ who gave himself for you. You live and move and have your being in the life of Christ.You are hid in Christ.Christ is the only life, the only body seen by God and that is to be seen by the world. Just think how surrendered you must be to deny yourself to the point that all anyone sees is the Christ in your life. You truly must be a living sacrifice, truly not  conformed to this world, and truly must be transformed by a renewing of your mind. Focusing on the things above, not on the things of this earth. By working to cast down imaginations and every high thing which exalts itself against the knowledge of God, even to captivating every thought for Christ. This means to truly have your mind of heaven and heavenly things.
In practical day to day living, we need to turn off the T.V.; set aside the magazines and books about the bible and spend quality time in the study and meditation of God's word. Spend more time in prayer even learn to whisper silent prayers to God through out the day. Surrender your life totally to Christ after all you are dead, and the new life is hid with Chrsit in God. Walk in your newness of Life.
