His Life, Now! with David Hughes

Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God has made everything fit beautifully in its appropriate time … ALSO, He has set eternity in our hearts. You are here at just the right and appropriate time with eternity (Christ) dwelling on the inside. As a believer, eternity is not something way off in our future – it is […]

We are in union with Christ through the new birth and now share in His life within us. The heart of living by our identity is relational – it’s all about Jesus and the new life he has given us. We are joined to the Lord in spirit and that truly changes everything. Sometimes our […]

The life we live in Christ means everything, but the flesh/self will always seek to rob us of that experience.  Paul prayed in Ephesians 1:15-23 that the eyes of our understanding would be enlightened to know 1) The hope of HIS calling 2) HIS glorious inheritance in the saints 3) HIS incomparably great power to […]

Jesus has become the very identity of every believer through the Holy Spirit within us. The Song of Solomon 2:4 says that His banner over me is love! The word banner comes from a word that means to flaunt or be conspicuous. The Lord dwells in us through the Spirit and He has raised his flag […]

2 Corinthians 4:18 says to look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen – one is temporal the other is eternal. So do you want to live out of your geography or live out of your identity? – one is set in the earth and the other […]

Worship is proclaiming what you value – it comes from the ancient word “worthship”. Everything we do is worship – we live based on what we value and put worth in. The heart of true worship is love and a heart overflowing with love is a heart that overflows with worship to the Lord! Don’t […]
