And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you. Romans 8:11

Have you ever noticed this verse tucked away in one of Paul’s long, complicated chapters?  Paul’s writing is full of wonderful truths, but sometimes it is hard to keep up with him.  For a moment, consider this one verse.  I boil it down to one thing, the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead lives in me.

If that is true, so many other things are also true.  Here are just a few:

· There is no limit to what God can do through a Christian.

· The deposit that guarantees our inheritance makes heaven a sure thing.

· The comfort available to a Christian has no limit.

· Satan couldn’t keep Jesus in the grave, so what chance does he have against us.

· Living in a manner worthy of this deposit requires committing our full mind, body, and spirit.

So much hope is wrapped up in just this one verse!  Let this thought roll around in your mind this week. I bet you will find some other amazing truths.
