I have been a student of the Word of God since the moment I was born again! I would hear the Word taught and then check it out for myself in my own Bible. I would call someone I trusted if I came across something that I didn't quite understand. From the moment I received the Infilling of Holy Spirit, I have had an increased understanding of the Word, sometimes knowing things about HIM before I even saw it in the Word, because HE lives in ME! I have always appreciated, respected and made use of the wonderful GIFTS that JESUS has given to us (Ephesians 4) and I have no problem acknowledging the obedient vessels who allowed Holy Spirit to use them to bring the WORD to us! So, with that explanation, I want to share today's "Grace Inspirations" by Joseph Prince! I have heard this same TRUTH taught many times, but I have never heard this said any better than this!
THE LIFE OF JESUS IS IN YOU
John 10:10 …I [Jesus] have come that they may have
life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
Though Jesus is completely God, He was
born completely human. He went through temptation after temptation and
conquered every one of them. (Hebrews 4:15) And all that overcoming power is
found in His life. And He put that life in you—the life of Christ is in you!
During Jesus’ ministry on earth, He
conquered sickness, the winds and waves, the powers of darkness and death. It
is His life that brings victory over the devil and all his works. And He put
that life in you—the life of Christ is in you!
Finally, Jesus went to the cross. And
that life in Him put an end to everything that was natural of the Adamic
race—sickness, poverty, failures, pains, curses and death. All that was natural
ceased to be in that life of His. But all that was supernatural remained in
Him. And He put that life in you—the life of Christ is in you!
Then, Jesus rose from the dead. And in
that life of His was added the power of resurrection. And He put that life in
you—the life of Christ is in you!
After His resurrection, Jesus went back
to heaven to His Father. Today, He is seated at the right hand of God, resting
in His finished work, occupying a place of the highest authority. And He put
that life in you—the life of Christ is in you!
And because Jesus went back to the
Father, the Holy Spirit came to indwell you (John 16:7), so that you will live
life with His anointing in you and walk in His overcoming power.
All that Jesus is, God meant for you to
be. All that He has, God meant for you to have. All the exciting things that
you read in the Bible about Jesus, all the treasures of Him hidden in the Old
Testament and the unsearchable riches in Him that you find in the New
Testament, all of that life of His, is not out there somewhere. God has
deposited all of it in you, so that you can live the abundant life that Jesus
came to give you!
Thought For The Day: All that Jesus is and all that He has,
God has deposited in you so that you can live the abundant life that Jesus came
to give you!
AMEN! We are abundantly equipped to carry out ALL that JESUS has called us to do, here, in THIS life! HALLELUJAH! Here is Hillsong UNITED with "Shadow Step". Let's walk in the steps that HE has laid out for us, KNOWING that HE will step into each situation at just the right time, in just the right way, to give us the powerful, anointed and supernatural victory! AMEN!
Shalom in Him!
