Galatians 2:20

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. (Galatians 2:20)
Somehow this verse was brought to my attention when I first became a Christian, some seventy years ago. It has grown in my thinking until it certainly is one of my “favorite” passages in the Bible.
Every evening I pray that for the remainder of the night and throughout the following day it will be Christ who is thinking, speaking, and behaving in my body.
He will be living in my place. Meanwhile, I will be seated and resting in Christ at the right hand of God, having fellowship with my Father.
This is how I choose to live the remainder of my days on the earth.
I have been crucified with Christ.
Every day I choose not to fulfill my own desires but to permit Christ to give me what He wants me to have. In fact, I ask the Lord to give me His desires for me and to fulfill them as He will.
If you are of the opinion this is not a crucifixion, not a death of the old man, you have not tried it.
It is a crucifixion “with Christ,” not some sort of self-mortification. Christ is involved in every element of my crucifixion.
When we truly receive Christ as our Lord and Savior, our new born-again nature is lifted in Christ to the right hand of God.
Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. (Colossians 3:1-3)
Am I claiming that Christ is living in my body on the earth and my spiritual nature is at the right hand of God? That exactly is what I am saying. My spiritual nature is in Christ in God, and I endeavor each day to focus on that fact, refusing to be involved in the present confusion in the world.
