THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part 65.

1Corinthians 15:24-26 (KJV) "Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death."
Revelation 20:13-15 (KJV) "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."
John 10:10; Hebrews 2:14-15; Revelation 1:18; Philippians 1:20-23; 1Corinthians 15:54-57;

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

73. Unfortunately most believer are trying to have dominion through anointing power, some others want to have dominion through money, wealth and riches. Remember Adam had all the power, money, riches and wealth yet he lost everything to the devil because he did not understand and follow God's model of how to rule and reign in life. Adam instead of following the slow and steady divine formula of being fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, subdue it and have dominion, wanted to have dominion through the quicker way of knowledge of good and evil. He wanted to be like God, wanted to rule by knowledge.

Same challenge we must overcome in the Church today, we can only rule and reign in life through the slow and steady divine formula of being fruitful, multiplication and filling the earth with believers not just by our knowledge and power or by financial prosperity. No matter how much we know and how much of power we have and how many times we cast out devil, what really matters is our fruitfulness and multiplication in the kingdom. Kingdom is about people not things or power. Rulership is about people not about things or power. All the knowledge we have of the scriptures is to make all men disciples of Christ not just for us to accumulate divine wisdom and revelation.

We are called to rule and reign in life not for ourselves but to prevent all men from experiencing the second death. God will judge your ruling and reigning in life in your generation not by any other exploits but in the multlipilication of the kingdom and how much did you fill the earth with believers. Translating Genesis 1:28 in the new testament Jesus delegated all the power and authority over the earth that He had taken from the devil over to all believers to go into the world and make disciples of all nations. Christ has delegated to us all power and authority for us to be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth with believers, subdue it and have dominion.

To rule and reign means to have dominion. Through Adam, death is ruling and reigning on earth to bring all men unto the second death. But through Christ, death including spiritual death, physical death and the second death have all been abolished for all men as it was before the fall of man. In Christ Jesus the last Adam, life is now ruling and reigning and we must make sure all men get this life and escape the second death. Genesis 1:28; 3:1-8; Romans 5:12-21; Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; 2Corinthians 5:10;

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 of your body 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. The time is very short. Choose Jesus today.
You can become a born again child of God today. The bible says If you shalt confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, you 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. 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.
