Jesus destroyed our spiritual enemy! Now our mission is to allow the Word of God to renew our minds and transform us, so we can effectively walk in this life He has purchased for us and be agents of the authority we have been given!

The world has forgotten what God looks like. Religion has hidden Him behind walls and ceremonies and shrouded His Word in mystery with their dead traditions. By comparison, Jesus came saying, “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also” (John 14:7).  Jesus offers us a relationship with the Father like the one He had!

If you are born again you are IN Christ and He is in you! He took away everything you had in Adam, and gave you everything that He had, including the dominion and authority Adam lost to Satan. This includes dominion over sickness, disease, lack and fear—Jesus has given you a brand new identity!

In God’s mind, time is always the present. Yesterday is gone. All your victories and defeats are in the past. You can learn from them and move on, or negatively dwell on them and remain stuck in the past, but God does not. He is interested in NOW!

Have you seen the cross of Jesus Christ? Have you recognized the fatal blow it delivered to the devil’s authority over you? Are you experiencing the resurrection power of God now available to you in forgiveness, deliverance, health and every area of your life?

You should never be too busy to say goodbye to your old self with its past habits, thought patterns, and mistakes of yesterday, and hello to all you have been given in your resurrected life in Christ. “You have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self. You are being renewed in knowledge according to the image of your Creator” (Colossians 3:9-10 HCSB).

Ephesians 1:6 says that we are seated together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. That’s not a future promise, it’s a present reality that will help you greatly as you navigate the tribulations on this earth. Our position in Christ is secure, because we’re not sitting next to Him, we are positioned IN Him, and He is IN us! When we understand this and look at ourselves from His perspective, we will rise above the mountains and the enemies before us!

Satan told Eve that eating of the fruit of the tree would make them like God, knowing good and evil. When we read in the book of Genesis we discover that as God created, each act of creation was followed by His decreeing that “it was GOOD.” God never intended for us to know evil, He intended us to enjoy the blessing and the goodness of all that He had created for us. It was Satan who desired that we experience evil, but Jesus has restored the blessing and our dominion to us!

Even though Jesus had the most significant purpose on earth to accomplish, He was never in a hurry. He was confident that His mission would be completed because He walked in an intimate relationship with the Father. Knowing how important this is, why are we not making that kind of relationship with the Father a priority in our lives?

Many people fail to receive what they pray for because of lack of understanding about confession. The word confession in the Greek language means “saying the same thing.” This means we are to believe and say only what God says in His Word about our sins, sicknesses and everything else included in our redemption. When we affirm what God says about it, He watches over it to make it good!
