THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part One.

Ephesians 1:19-23 (KJV) And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
Romans 6:3-5; 8:11; 1Corinthians 2:7-8; 15:12-23

Today we begin a new series of study titled THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS to enable us to walk in the fullness of the resurrection power.

1. The word resurrection in the Greek means a rising up or standing up again unto eternal life or unto eternal damnation. The resurrection of Jesus from the dead was not the first time a person was raised from the dead in the bible. But the resurrection of Jesus was outstanding and peculiar because it is filled with great mysteries or divine secrets above all the wisdom this world and the devil. It was a mystery that was hidden from the old testament prophets and saints and also hid from the devil and all his kingdom.

Even though Jesus kept announcing His death and resurrection yet both his disciples, the Jews and the devil could not understand Him. Hence the scripture says in 1Corinthians 2:7-8 (KJV) "But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory." If the devil, the Jews and the Romans knew the mystery of the resurrection they would not have crucified Jesus. Ephesians 1:9; 3:1-11; 1Kings 17:17-24; 2Kings 4:8-37; Mark 5:35-43; John 11:1-44; Romans 11:25; 16:25; 1Corinthians 15:51-57; Colosians 1:26-27; 4:3; 1Timothy 3:9,16; Matthew 16:21; 17:22-23; Mark 9:31-32; Luke 9:44-45; 18:31-34.

The bottom line of all what we are saying is that God wants you to begin to see yourself in the eyes and light of all that the resurrection of Jesus has done for you and has made you. And no more in your fleshly natural sin nature so that you can begin to enjoy the fullness of the blessings of the mystery of the resurrection power which includes eternal life and freedom from sin, sickness, diseases, poverty, demonic oppression, fear, doubts, anxieties and death.

If you need healing the bible says In Matthew 8:17 that Jesus Himself took all our sicknesses and diseases. Therefore you can receive your healing now by faith in the name of Jesus. Just lay your hand on the affected area and say this prayer. Father God in the name of Jesus I believe that Jesus died for my healing. I believe He took all my sickness and diseases on the cross. If He took them, then I cannot have them. Therefore I resist and I reject every sickness in my body and I confess Jesus today as my healer and I receive my healing now. Thank you Jesus that I am healed. 1Peter 2:24; Ps 107:20.
Now begin to do what you couldn't do before because of the sickness. You are healed in Jesus name.

You can also become a born again child of God. The bible says If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10; John 1:12.

Say this prayer: O God have mercy on me. I come to you today in the name of Jesus. I believe in my heart that Jesus is the Son of God. I believe that He died for me. I believe that you raised Him from the dead for my salvation from all the powers of the devil. I accept Jesus in my heart today and I confess Him today as my Lord and Saviour. Thank you Father that today I am saved In Jesus name.

Jesus is coming very soon. Are you ready? Heaven is real, hell is real. Choose Jesus, choose life.
If you prayed this prayer of Salvation, please go to a nearby bible believing Church in your area, so you can grow in the grace of our Lord Jesus. Grace be with you.

Grace be with you.

Jesus never resurrected. The Romans killed him. thats all. Jesus was used. period. Most of things the gospel claimed Jesus said, he didn't say them. If Jesus should come back and read the gospel, he will be shocked about many things written about him. Same goes for Mohammed. They were used.
