The devil will not cloud our hearts with lies and profanity in Jesus name.
May we be focused to deliver our destinies in Jesus name.
In life we have the shadow and reality. The two are different from one another. Many of us follow the shadow all our lives. Yet we think we are living for real.
Many of our life experiences are the shadow and not the reality.
In John 10:10 we are able to get a clue to understand what I’m sharing. The shadow no matter how much it looks like the object don’t have life of its own. The shadow is dependent on the reality (object).
Colossians 1:13 KJV
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son
Hebrews 10:1 KJV
For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
1. Before a thief comes there’s an original plan, design, ownership.
2. Even when the thief holds on anything, he isn’t the owner.
Never take the shadow as the reality. The scripture is explicit enough.
3. To restrain the thief, there is an enforcement – from an enforcement agent… Here it is Christ Jesus
John 10:10 KJV
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
But from the time of Adam, Satan comes to steal the good life and gave out a shadow.
A life of pain, fear, trouble, poverty… All this downward life aren’t God’s design they are shadows.
Until we agree to this message we will never enjoy life to the full. Many of us because we are born in poverty, we have taken poverty to be our reality.B arrenness has become somebody else reality. Someone else thought sickness is a gift to humble them.
4. The thief comes to take what’s already on ground. The devil doesn’t create anything by himself – good job, business, children, marriage, etc.
From the foundation of the earth, the Lord has completed the work of prosperity, abundance, health, righteousness.
This is the reality
Tell God: The dastard experience shows nothing of abundant life. If you don’t know the difference between the abundant life of God and Satan’s destructive offers, the enemy will want to take our best life away.
Never, never take the shadow for the reality
Even the law of Moses is a shadow… So God wants complete liberty for us and the further reason why Christ came. So anything hindering must go.
For instance covid-19 is out there.
It represents:
Death
Loss
Poverty
Etc.
With such experience we are to run to Jesus and tell him: Daddy remove this death, stealing and destruction.
Hebrews 10:1 KJV
For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
You must know and you must stand your ground. Even the law of Moses with good show of religiosity has to be disposed of because of certain constraints in it. The reason: God want his children to be limitless in every sense.
So anything that doesn’t buttress abundant life in a nation, society and family is of the devil.
You don’t wait until it hurts you.
By confession, meditation
And prayer begin to superimpose abundant life over it in Jesus name.
1 John 3:8 KJV
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
You must know you have been delivered.
But this comes through the button of recognition.
Authority is not cheap… Power is not freely given by the oppressor. You demand for it.
Colossians 1:13 KJV
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
Then you must stand on what you know… That’s authority.
E.g this season of covid-19.
Tell yourself and pray:
No loss
No limitation
No death
No destruction.
Nevertheless, you cannot rule in Christ if you’re not of Christ
Let us pray:
Dear Lord Jesus, I’m lost in sin, unrighteousness and unbelief.
I have learnt of you. I desire the abundant life that comes from you.
I know I cannot have it unless I take your yoke.
Jesus I take your yoke today, I partner with you from now. Be my Lord, keep leading me.
Thank you for the new life of abundance in you… Thank you for the reality of abundant life.
Hallelujah
What you don’t know you cannot enjoy.
You must know what abundance is and the abundant life.
What you have to do:
Know what has been freely given in Christ, then insist on the manifestation… That’s demonstration of sonship.
As many as have received Christ before and tonight, to us gave he power to become sons.
In a time like this, sit and see that life is beautiful, you’re expanding, ideas are coming and you’re living fine.
