Christ In You Part 3 // Pastor Rafy Panlilio

Christ In You Part 3 // Pastor Rafy PanlilioDecember 21, 2025Matthew 1:21–25; Colossians 1:27–29Christmas reminds us that Jesus is Immanuel—God with us. But the Gospel does not stop there. In Christ In You Part 3, we are reminded that while Jesus was with us in the flesh for a season, God’s greater purpose is that Christ now lives in us.Anchored on Colossians 1:27–29, this message explains how Christ in you is not just a truth to believe but a power to experience—both in serving and in living.First, Christ in you gives you the power to serve. God calls every believer to serve, but never in our own strength. Ministry requires toil and perseverance, yet Scripture reminds us that it is God’s power at work within us that sustains our service. As we commit ourselves to God’s purpose, He supplies the strength we do not have (Zechariah 4:6; 1 Corinthians 15:9–10).Second, Christ in you gives you the power to live. Life is filled with changing seasons—plenty and lack, joy and hardship. When Christ reigns within us, we gain inner strength that allows us to remain content, faithful, and loving in every circumstance (Philippians 4:12–13; Ephesians 3:14–21). His power within us enables us not only to endure life but to reflect His love to others.This message challenges us to move beyond seeing Jesus only in the manger and to allow Him to become the Lord and Manager of our lives. When Christ truly dwells in us, His power is evident—in our service, our endurance, and the way we live every day.Watch it in 4K on our official YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/FXRcG_KnjAM#ChristInYou#GTCSundayService#WhereLivesChange
