New Man, New Plan

The disciples didn’t really understand what was happening as Jesus hung on the cross. There, Christ took our sin and gave us HIS life in return! We became God’s righteousness on earth—the habitation of His Holy Spirit! We are enabled and empowered to act as Christ in the earth, because He now lives IN us. The disciples saw a man, but God saw humanity!

You Can Change Things

Jesus is our example. He destroyed the works of the devil, and He had power over sickness, disease, lack, oppression and everything else that comes from sin and darkness. You and I today have that same power! It doesn’t matter how long or how difficult the situation is in your life—Jesus lives in you and gave you His authority to change things!

Here and Now Power

Why do we keep pointing to what Jesus did, said, and what is recorded of Him in the bible? Because He is the true picture of who WE are. He has set the bar for what God’s original intention is for us, the new creation. Then He paid every price so we could fully live in that reality—not in the sweet by and by of heaven—but in the here and now on earth!

Presenting Yourself to God

“Lord Jesus, I thank You and take by faith the healing and deliverance You have given to me. Thank You that ALL things are now possible to me, because I believe Your ‘power of the possible’ is effectually working in my life. Thank You that I’m healed, I’m delivered and I am FREE!”

Hidden With Christ in the Father

When you were born again, you and the Father were made friends again. In Christ, you were brought back into the Father as He desired from the beginning. You were empty and without purpose, but now Christ lives IN you, and you do His works in the earth. You’re a new creation with a new life—in God’s eyes, a person without a past!

Living Reflections of Christ

“We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit” (2 Corinthians 3:18 HCSB). How do we become more like Christ? As we see Him here in this life through God’s Word, we are transformed into His image in our spirit, soul and body.  There is no, “If you do, then I will” in this verse. It doesn’t say we qualify if we are good enough, if we pray enough or if we give enough. He has qualified us by His sacrifice, His blood, and His victory over Satan. The key is to allow Him to transform us by the renewing of our minds!

Command and Conquer

I believe Elijah stood in front of the battles before him and was able to call down fire from heaven. He was able, when necessary, to stop the rain. He was able to speak the will of God over his situations and over an entire nation of people. Elijah’s prayers prevailed, and now, with the very life and power of God living within us, how much more so should ours!

No Longer I Who Lives

Paul had an interesting view of himself. He thought of himself as a man who had died and awakened to a new life in Christ. He considered himself a dead man, yet still breathing. Dead men do not get offended at people. Dead men do not scream back when they are screamed at. Dead men can be poked, kicked, mocked and spit upon, and they still do not respond. The devil and his followers have no weapons left when Christians do not respond in fear or anger to their evil threats and actions!

 

Expectation Brings Demonstration

Your atmosphere is the mood, the influence, or the environment that you surround yourself with. An atmosphere without expectation will kill your dreams because it destroys the hope that is within you. An atmosphere of expectation, however, is conductive to the supernatural and divine intervention of God in your life!

Whose Side Are You On?

When the twelve spies came back from the Promised Land, ten of them couldn’t conceive themselves winning in a battle with the giants, because they saw themselves as grasshoppers. God was for them, but they were against themselves. Start agreeing with God and see yourself achieving the impossible!
