YOU HAVE BEEN DELIVERED

“And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”
Hebrews 2:15(KJV). 

From our opening scripture, we understand that when Jesus Christ died on the cross, He broke the power of satan over your life and delivered you from the fear of death and bondage. Therefore, you need to become aware of your deliverance, and know that satan has no claim over your soul because the blood of Jesus has been shed.

You need to understand that the blood of Jesus has claimed your soul from satan. That is why the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 6:20, “For ye are bought with a price …” If you have been bought with a price, it means that you are not your own but God's. So, you belong to God right now and satan has no legal claims on your life.

In Colossians 1:12-13 the Bible says, “Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:”

This means that the day you got born again, you were removed from the power of darkness. The word 'power' in this context means authority and control. This means that satan has no right to control your life as a child of God because you have been removed from his authority and control from the day you got born again.

Everyone that is not born again is in the kingdom of darkness, whether they like it or not, they are under the power of satan. This is according to Ephesians 2:2 which says, “Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:” This clearly shows us that the unbeliever is under the influence of an evil spirit, but the man in Christ has been totally delivered from the power and control of darkness.

CONFESSION
Dear Father, I thank you for you have qualified me to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light. I have been delivered from the power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of God's Dear Son. Amen.
