The Lord Jesus Christ told His disciples before He departed,

Matthew 28:20 "And lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

We as believers in Him have the assurance that Jesus Christ is living in us even today.

Colossians 1:25-27 "Of this church I was made a minister according to the stewardship from God bestowed on me for your benefit, so that I might fully carry out the preaching of the word of God, that is, the mystery which has been hidden from the past ages and generations, but has now been manifested to His saints, To whom God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."

That Christ in us is our identity. It is our very hope of glory. We have been identified with Him and raised to new life in Him.

Romans 6:4 "That as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life."

Ephesians 2:6 "And raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus"

This Christ in us gives us the authority and power to preach His Word. This Living Word in us gives us the ability to heal the sick, to cast out the devil, to baptize with the Holy Spirit, to raise the dead, to set the captives free, etc. etc.

We now have the faith of Jesus Christ and we can do what He would have us to do. We can fulfill any calling on our lives and serve Him with the utmost.

John 14:12 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father."

Mark 16:17 "These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues"

We now have the faith, the power and the ability to carry on the Ministry of our Lord. We are the Body, and He is the Head.

Not all are called to do miracles, but we are seeing a recent surge over the last 100 years or so. There has been great outpourings of the Holy Spirit and some powerful men of God and ministries that have moved in the last century or two.

As we get nearer and nearer to the end times and the return of Jesus Christ, I believe that there will be one great final push by our Father to usher in the return of our Lord. I believe there is a great chance for the salvation of many, for multitudes to come to Christ who had never known Him before. I believe there will be great outpourings and manifestations of God that haven't been seen since the day of Pentecost and the ministries of the Apostle Paul and the original Apostles.

It will be a great chance to see God move and perform many miraculous signs and wonders, and for many to come to know Him, and for those who have known Him to draw even closer.

But regardless of what the future holds, we know that Christ lives in us mightily, and where He is, there we shall be, ever present with our Lord (1 Thess. 4:17)! God Bless.
