THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part 114.

Ephesians 2:4-7 (KJV) But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 1:3,19-23; 2: 1Corinthians 15:20-23,45-54;

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.

122. By the wisdom and the grace of God, Jesus the word of God was sent down from heaven to become a man for the redemption of man and the plan of God for all creation. By this decision God was changing and moving His plan for man and all creation in Adam to Jesus Christ. Jesus came down to become a new and the last Adam through whom God would still fulfill His plan for man and all creation in heaven and earth. When Jesus died as a man He officially and automatically paid the full price and penalty for the sin of Adam. And by His resurrection from the dead He officially took on the position of the new and the last Adam.

Being from heaven Jesus the last Adam and the new man has the body and life of both the earth and heaven. Unlike the first Adam who was only earthly with no access to heaven, Jesus the new man can comfortably live on earth and in heaven at the same time and wherever He wants. This first privilege of living in heaven and earth at the same time is what all believers are enjoying now in Christ Jesus for the bible says we are all sitted together with Christ at the right hand of God in heaven. And at the rapture we shall all move over to heaven physically. And at the second coming of Jesus we shall return with Him to the earth to rule here for one thousand years.

Therefore when Jesus died and rose from the dead as the last Adam being the first man to be resurrected from the dead, He changed the nature, the body and the life of man from earthly to heavenly. Jesus came from heaven to give all men the heavenly life in place of the Adamic earthly life and in place of the dead life of the fallen man. He also gave us a heavenly Spirit, a heavenly mind and a heavenly body. As a result, forever Jesus has changed the position of man from earthly beings to heavenly beings. All men in Christ Jesus are now citizens of heaven and of the household of God.

All these were made possible because in the eternal wisdom and plan of God when Jesus died, we all died with Him being the new Adam. When He rose from the dead, we were also raised with Him and when He ascended into heaven we also ascended with Him by faith. Just as the when the first Adam sinned, fell and died spiritually all men sinned, fell and died spiritually with him, so we all take unto the new Adam. The bible says in Romans 5:18-19 (KJV) "Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous." 1Corinthians 2:1-8; 15:20-23,45-57; Philippians 2:5-11; Hebrews 2:14-15; John 3:16; Ephesians 1:19-23; 2:4-6,19; 1Thessalonians 3:13; 4:14-17; 2Thesssalonians 2:1; Revelation 20:1-7;

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. Judgement Day is coming. 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.
