THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part 129.

1John 3:2 (KJV) "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is."
John 1:12-13; Romans 4:13-14; 8:14-17; Galatians 3:26-29; 4:1-7; Ephesians 2:4-6,19; 3:6; Colossians 1:15-17; Hebrews 1:2-3; Titus 3:7; Genesis 1:28; 5:1-3;

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.

137. Just as Abraham had many children but only Isaac was called the seed of Abraham, the son of Abraham and the heir of Abraham. In the same way even though Isaac had twins only Jacob was counted as the son of Isaac. Even though there are other men who are called children or servants of God, only the church are called the sons of God. Not only are we the sons of God in Christ Jesus but as Christ is also the heir of God, so are we the heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ to the throne of God and all that God has and is.

Sonship is not a title. In every family sonship is a position specially reserved for those who carry the same authority as the father potentially by inheritance. Sonship is not earned, you cannot work to be a son, neither can you merit to be called a son. It is a free gift of inheritance by nature. No one can make himself a son and no one can make you a son. Sons are called sons by the father, sons are not made. Sons are born not made. Sons are born leaders, they are not made leaders. As sons of God we are leaders by birth, we carry power and authority by birth. It is not a conferred power or authority but by inheritance.

Spiritually sonship is the same thing as the position of the firstborn son, who is heir to the father and entitled to double portion of inheritance. He is above all other children and if the father dies he automatically takes over the kingdom without doubt. This is the kind of sonship we have with God in Christ. If God ceases to exist, Christ and the Church are by inheritance to takeover. But since God cannot die and God cannot cease to exist, the Father has programmed all His sons to rule and reign with Him, hence we are all sitted at the right hand of the Father's throne.

As sons we are given various portions of the Father's kingdom to rule and reign in His name and authority, both in this life and that which is to come. Our faithfulness in the assignment given to us now will determine how much we are going to be involved in ruling and reigning with Christ in the Father's eternal kingdom. Now we are to rule and reign with Christ until all the enemies of Christ and God are subdued and destroyed. Job 1:6; 2:1; Genesis 6:24; Acts 17:29; Galatians 4:1-7,21-31; Romans 5:17; 8:29-30; 9:7-13; 1Corinthians 1:9; 15:20,23; Ephesians 1:6; 4:4; 2Timothy 1:9; 2Peter 1:3; 1John 3:1; Hebrews 1:1-14; Colossians 1:18; Luke 3:22; Mark 9:7; Revelation 1:5; 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. 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.
