THE SUPERIOR LIFE

“… Christ in you, the hope of glory:” 
Colossians 1:27(KJV)

God spoke to me saying, “Any Christianity that is less than what you see in the life of Jesus or the apostles is substandard Christianity.” This is because Jesus is the model of what we as Christians should be.

Jesus is a prototype of what zoe (the life and nature of God) can do in a human body. The Bible records that when Jesus touched a leprous man the leprosy left him (Matthew 8:3). This was to let us know that disease does not infect those who have zoe.

In order for you to better understand the power of the life and nature of God (zoe) in us, I will like you to know that under the law, if a man had leprosy and you touched him, you will become unclean because according to the law when you have leprosy you are unclean and whoever touches you becomes unclean.  (Leviticus 13:26, 44) But that is not the case when a man has zoe in him.

When you have zoe in you, instead of the disease contaminating you, you decontaminate the disease. How is that made possible? It is because zoe (the life and nature of God) is superior to every sickness and disease. For example we see the workings of zoe in the life of Paul when he was bitten by a serpent in Acts 28:1-5. When you read that portion of scripture, you will notice that the natives were watching him expecting him to die after he was bitten by the serpent, but when he didn't die, they concluded that he was a god.

This is why the Bible says in Romans 8:11, “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.”

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that the Spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in me, therefore He that raised up Christ from the dead gives life to my mortal body by His Spirit that dwells in me. I declare that greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world. Amen.

For further study read: 
Acts 28:1-5, Acts 3:1-8, 1 Peter 1:23.

DOING THE WORD
If you are afflicted with any sickness, command it to die and pass out of your body in Jesus Name.
