Having The CONSCIOUSNESS Of Christ(part 2) : by PstChrisAmadi: 5:23pm On Sep 30, 2020
That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto His death (Phil. 3:10).

Main Bible Refs. : Eph. 3:14-21; Phil. 3:7-14).

Christ's Consciousness is the highest spiritual attainment in this life, and it is the only right way to know God. To be Christ conscious is to be completely born again. It is to be fully and truly transformed, and to put on Christ's nature or the nature of God or heavenly nature.

To be Christ conscious is to be heavenly minded, and to always have the fear of God. This would subsequently guide one to be careful in one's speeches and actions, because of the awareness that God's presence is in all places.

But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of Him that created him (Col. 3:8-10).

To be Christ conscious is to avoid sin and follow the path of holiness and righteousness, because you know that God is holy.
But as He which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation (conduct); Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy (1Peter 1:15-16).

To be Christ conscious is to have the full understanding that the Kingdom of God is Christ-based. The Lord Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and Life (Jn. 14:6). We must look up to Him because, He is the author and finisher of our faith (Heb. 12:2). Those who make references to the Law and Moses, or Elijah or even the mistakes of Peter and Paul, have not fully realized Christ. This is very serious.

To be Christ conscious is to be filled with the quest and burden to do the will of God or to discover more about God, like Paul did. In our opening scripture, Phil. 3:10, the Apostle Paul was burdened to know more about God.

At the initial stage of his calling, Paul's concern was what to do for the Lord.
And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the bricks. And he trembling and astonished said, Lord what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do (Acts 9:5-6).

To be Christ conscious is to be filled with His fullness, mystery, grace and power.

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Col. 1:27).

If we are Christ-conscious, things would be at our command, as the Lord Jesus Christ is Lord over all things.

To be Christ conscious is to live with heaven in focus or view.

If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with Him in glory (Col. 3:1-4).


God's original plan has always been that man should be in dominion. Through the Lord Jesus Christ, that original plan of God has been restored. In Christ we have God's abounding grace to do all things. Even Satan is subject to us through the name of Jesus Christ. Arise and lord it over the issues of life.

And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name (Luke 10:17).

What is your level of Christ's Consciousness? Many are seeking to know God outside of Christ. That is an adventure in futility. Jesus Christ is all in all. God bless you.
