THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part 4.

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 continue 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.

7. The glory of God that raised Jesus from the dead was the glory that came down or the presence of God that came down to accept the offering and sacrifice of the blood of Jesus and to glorify Him. If the blood of Jesus was unacceptable there would have been no remission of sins and all men and all creation would have no hope and no faith. Without His resurrection all God's plan and purpose from creation would have failed completely without remedy and all of creation would have been doomed forever.

Even Jesus Himself would have been doomed if He was not resurrected. Without the resurrection, Jesus would have remained in hell and Hades the place of all dead waiting for the white throne judgement of God. Without the resurrection of Jesus, God would have lost His Godship because He would have been a liar, because all His promises to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and David would have failed. Also having promised Jesus also of His resurrection, God would have lied and would have been in the same class as the devil who is a liar and a deceiver.

Without the resurrection of Jesus the name of Jesus would have had no power or significance, the devil would have won and all power and authority would have domiciled with the devil. Without the resurrection of Jesus the law of sowing and reaping would have failed, there would have been no rewards or judgement for any one's actions including the devil. The fallen man and the earth would have been at the mercy of the devil to rule and reign the world forever. With no redemption there would be no righteousness, no justification and no faith. Romans 6:4-5; Leviticus 9:6,23; Numbers 14:10-23; 1Kings 8:10-11; Hebrews 10:1-18; Genesis 12:2-4; 22:16-18; Philippians 2:5-11; Genesis 8:22; John 3:16-17; Matthew 16:21; 17:22-23; Mark 9:31-32; Luke 9:44-45; 18:31-34; John 8:44; 2Corinthians 4:3-4;

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.

Jesus is coming very soon. Are you ready? Heaven is real, hell is real. Choose Jesus today, choose life.
You can become a born again child of God today. 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.

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.
