THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part 77.

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 5:21-29; 6:39-58; 10:10; Philippians 1:20-23; 2Timothy 1:10; 1Corinthians 15:51-57; Hebrews 2:14-15; Acts 2:24-35; 3:26; 4:10; 13:28-39; 17:30-31; Revelation 1:17-18; 20:1-15;

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.

85. The resurrection of Jesus has abolished death and has given us immortality, everlasting and eternal life which is abundant life. When Jesus rose from the dead, death lost its power and relevance and was abolished among all creation in heaven and earth. In the beginning God created only the heavens and the earth. Death, hell and the lake of fire are outcast places where all those who do not fit into heaven or earth are cast or separated forever. After the second death, death, hell, lake of fire and all that are in them will be cast off forever with no communication, connection or relationship with heaven and earth forever. Death will no longer exist either in heaven or earth forever This is the abolishing of death. Death is abolished because with the resurrection of all dead by Christ, death is no longer the finality or end of life.

Life has conquered, subdued and abolished death forever. Physical Death is now only a transit point for believers and all unbelievers until the fullness of time when Christ will come to judge all at the last day. The fullness of times also means when Christ might have subdued all His enemies under His feet. The Christians Physical death is only a sleeping time after he might have subdued all the enemies assigned to him in his life time or has done his own part of subduing all the enemies of Christ. All the ministries and assignments in the body of Christ is for one purpose of bringing all the enemies of God under the feet of Jesus or under our feet for we are the body of Christ. The feet of Christ is in his body.

Resurrection simply means there is life after death. With the resurrection of Jesus He became the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the ending of all things. Death and hell ceased to be the end. With the resurrection there's hope beyond death as we see at the white throne judgement. Death no longer has the final say in our lives, we have the final say in the name of Jesus. When Jesus died He went to hell, Hades and the lower parts of the earth. These places are spiritual prison houses. Hades is the place where all the old testament saints were kept waiting for the redemptive work of Jesus and the resurrection of Jesus. Hades is also called Abraham's bossom. It is called Abraham's bossom because he is the father of faith. Whether old or new testament salvation is always by faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God whether old or new testament. 2Timothy 1:10; John 10:10; 1Corinthians 15:51-57; Hebrews 2:14-15; Acts 2:24-35; 3:26; 4:10; 13:28-39; 17:30-31; Revelation 1:17-18; 20:1-15; Luke 16:22-31; Colossians 2:15; Ephesians 1:19-23; 4:8-10; 6:12; Psalm 24:7-10; Matthew 16:18; Philippians 1:20-23; Romans 8:1-2; Hebrews 11:1-40

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.
