// Read Col. 2:9-15 //
9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. 11 In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh[a] was put off when you were circumcised by[b] Christ, 12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
13 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you[c] alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins,14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.[d]
MEDITATION:
Redemption gives us access to the finished work of the cross. In Christ, we are circumcised in the putting off of the sinful nature. This was done by Christ and not with hands of men. Is this not also wonderful? Also, He has canceled every written code and regulation that was against us and that stood opposed to us, He look it away and nailed it to the cross. Halleluyah! Do you really know you have all these benefit in your new birth?
PRAYER: Meditate and pray on these benefits until your mind set in changed
