There is an expression "to awaken a sleeping giant". It means provoking a quiet, peaceful, or passive power that has massive hidden strength, causing it to react with overwhelming force. That is what happens in us when we are awakened to the Christ within. We are going to discuss today what that looks like.

1Cor 4:20 Mirror The Kingdom of God (the dominion of the Christ life) is about an empowered life and not just a matter of quoting your favorite teacher or scriptures.

Being what the church refers to a “born again” experience doesn’t necessarily mean that the sleeping giant is awakened. It is a good starting point. I believe that true awakening occurs when we divest ourselves of rituals, doctrines and traditions and begin to have an intimate relationship seeing him face to face or spirit to spirit. Am I saying that you can’t have an awakening with the power within if you go to church? No. I am saying that when Jesus becomes more important to you than your pastor and the church you belong to and God becomes your one and only focus, then we begin to really see that knowing him and ourselves better is the most important thing in this life and the result of that is love. Like Jesus said, love God and love your neighbor as yourself. 1 John 3:2 says, when you see him as I am, you will be like him.

1 John 3:2 Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is.

Where does he appear? In us. Verse 1 in the Mirror says The performance based systems of this world just cannot see this!
