Holy Spirit, teach us about Christ within
First, let us pray that the Holy Spirit will
be our teacher. Pray these words with all sincerity:
“God, I pray
that you illuminate my mind by the power of your Spirit and by the power of your
Word, that I may understand the wonder of my union with you.
That I will
progressively come to understand that Christ dwells within me. That I will
develop a consciousness that I am filled with God by Christ in me. That I am
filled with Christ and that he flows through me, today and every day.
I am filled with
God; that I am fused with you. My nature is altered by yours; I am blended with
Christ. By the Spirit of God’s Son in me, I enjoy that same sweet intimacy with
the Father as Jesus did. I love and worship my Father from this awareness.
Holy Spirit,
teach me more about Jesus. Make God real to me. I open my mind and my heart,
even my very flesh and my entire being, to the influence of your Holy Spirit.
My glorious hope
is that Christ will be revealed in me in fullness and completion — Christ in
me, the hope of glory.
In Jesus’ name I
pray, Amen.”
