Your true Identity 2

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
2 Corinthians 3:18(KJV)

Our opening scripture lets us know that we become what we see. The more we look into the glory of the Lord in the mirror of the Word of God we are changed into the same image from glory to glory.

The question I will like to ask you today is this; what image is before you? “Is it the image of your earthly father, your mother, or your uncle?” Remember that the image you are focusing on will determine what you say about yourself. So if you are saying things like; “I am easily provoked because in our family we have anger problem”. It is because you are focusing on the wrong image of you.

Therefore it is time for you to stop looking into the wrong mirror and start looking into the mirror of the Word of God and your shall be changed into the same image you see in the Word from glory to glory. When you look at the life of Jesus you will discover that He was never sick but rather He was healing the sick and casting out devils.

Therefore, since the Bible says in 1 John 4:17 that as He is so are we in this world, it means that you should also be healing the sick and casting out devils in His Name because you are as He is. Praise God.

PRAYER
Dear Father I ask that you make me perfect in every good work to do your will, working in me that which is well pleasing in your sight in Jesus Name. Amen.

Your true Identity 1

“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.”                
1 John 3:2(KJV)

Our  opening  scripture shows us that we are already sons of God just like Jesus. We are not going to become sons of God in the future, no, we are already sons of God today. The Bible goes on to say that when we see Jesus we shall be like Him. So the more I see Jesus in the Word of God (the Bible), the more I see who I am because I am as He is.

For instance, when you look into a mirror, who do you see? You see yourself. This is why the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 3:18, “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” So the more we look into the mirror of the Word of God, the more like Christ we become. Therefore, the identity crisis we have in the body of Christ is because we are not beholding Christ in the Word; “… because as he is, so are we in this world.” 1 John 4:17.

Having this understanding that we are like Jesus means that we ought to respond to the challenges of our lives in the same way Jesus will respond to them. Will Jesus have any sleepless night because of a financial need? When Jesus had no money with Him what did He do? Did He complain? No.

Matthew 17:24-27 shows us what Jesus did when He didn't have any physical cash with Him to pay tax, He immediately knew what to do. He simply said to Peter in Matthew 17:27(GNB), “But we don't want to offend these people. So go to the lake and drop in a line. Pull up the first fish you hook, and in its mouth you will find a coin worth enough for my Temple tax and yours. Take it and pay them our taxes.”

Child of God even as Jesus could not be disadvantaged even in an emergency need, it means that you can never be disadvantaged. Do you believe this?

WHAT ARE YOU LIVING FOR?

“Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.” Hebrews 10:7(KJV)

Our opening scripture shows us that Jesus came to do the will of God as written in the volume of the book referring to the book of the law or the Bible as we call it now. Therefore as a child of God if you want to know the will of God for your life, it can be revealed to you from the Bible.

Jesus Christ was the manifestation of the perfect will of God because in John 6:38 Jesus said, “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.” This shows us that Jesus came to do the will of God, not His own will. What about you, can you say that about yourself; that you are living for the will of God and not your own will?

So if you want to live in the perfect will of God for your life, the first step you need to take is to be born again.  Jesus reveals this in John 3:7(Good News Bible) where He said emphatically,  “…you must all be born again.” So if you are not born again, you can never fulfill the perfect will of God for your life no matter how good what you are doing is. You must first of all be born again; that is your access into God's perfect will for your life.

Therefore if you want to make Jesus the Lord of your life today and be born again, I encourage you to pray the prayer of salvation below: “O God, I believe in Jesus Christ. I believe that He is the Son of God. I believe that He died for my sins. I believe with all my heart that God raised Jesus Christ from the dead on the third day for my justification. I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is my Lord. I take Him as my Lord and personal savior. Jesus, come into my heart, make me a new person. I receive eternal life into my spirit even now. I ask that you fill me with the knowledge of you will for my life in Jesus Name. Amen.”

INSTRUCTION
 Rededicate yourself today to living for the will of God just as Jesus exemplified for us.

The Word Blessing

“And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.”
 Genesis 1:28(KJV)

Our opening scripture today shows us that God's blessings are carried in His Word because the Bible says, “And God blessed them, and God said unto them,…” So the blessing was carried in the words God said to them.

Now if God wants to bless Wale Feso, how is He going to bless me? He says, “I have blessed you with my Spirit.” So I am blessed because He said so. Therefore because I know what God has said when He blessed me I have faith for the Word to manifest in my life.

When Melchizedek blessed Abraham in Genesis 14:18-20, He only spoke words over him. So when you find what the Bible says concerning you, you are finding your blessing because the blessing is your inheritance. Let me explain this with the scenario of a man whose father died. Prior to his death, lets assume that his father was the richest man in that country. When the lawyer comes to read the will his father wrote, whatever the will says belongs to him is automatically his inheritance legally. But he has to take those words as his strong reasons and use them to claim what was given to him by his father in spite of any opposition that comes to challenge the acquisition of his inheritance.

Therefore, God has given you His Word, use that Word to war a good warfare against the devil and every contrary circumstance or situation challenging your faith in the acquisition of your inheritance in Christ. So when the devil challenges you saying, “why are you not going to fall sick, are you not a human being?” Use the Word against him, tell him, it is written, “by the stripes of Jesus I was healed.” Always use the Will which is the Word of God to lay claims to all your inheritance in Christ and every opposition will bow to you.

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that by the blood of the lamb and by the Word of my testimony, I have overcome every negative opposition. I lay claims to all my inheritance in Christ. I am strong, the Word of God abides in me and I have overcome the wicked one. Amen.

YOU ARE BLESSED 2

“And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:”
Genesis 12:2(KJV)

The word bless in our opening scripture is the Hebrew word 'barak' - it means to speak well over. In the New Testament we see the word bless used for the first time in Matthew 5:44 where Jesus said, “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, …” The word bless there is from the Greek word, 'eulogeo' – it also means to speak well over.

So the question you need to ask yourself is this, “has God spoken well over me?” And the answer is yes. Go to the Bible and you will find so many blessings that God has already spoken over your life. The reason some Christians are not seeing the blessing in manifestation in their lives is because when they see what God has spoken concerning them in the Word of God, they do not believe it; neither  do they lay claims on it and declare it over their lives.

Some others instead of them to simply believe the Word God has spoken concerning them, they are looking for some spectacular manifestation or maybe for an angel to appear to them and say, “Titilayo you are blessed.” They are like Thomas who  wants to see before he believes, but Jesus said in John 20:29, “…blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”

PRAYER
Dear Father I thank you because I know that you have blessed me with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Greatness is at work in me, greatness is upon my name and greatness is upon my seed in Jesus Name. Amen.

You are blessed 1

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:”
Ephesians 1:3(KJV)

Today we see from our opening scripture that we have already been blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. So as a Christian, stop waiting for God to bless you because God has already blessed you with all spiritual blessings.

The Christian that is waiting to be blessed is limited but the Christian that knows he is already blessed has the limits removed from his life. So he already has it made. Please make this confession out loud, say “I am blessed.”

The Bible says in Galatians 3:9, “So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.” 1 Peter 3:9 says, “… knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.” The blessing and the blessed life is your inheritance in Christ Jesus. You are already blessed. Therefore stop making statements like; “if God can only bless me.” Child of God, you are already blessed by God.

CONFESSION
 In the Name of Jesus I declare that Abraham's blessings are mine. I am blessed with wisdom, knowledge and understanding. I am blessed in my body, I am blessed in the city, the works of my hands are blessed, I am blessed with safety in my going out and in my coming in. My family is blessed, my finances is blessed, nothing shall be missing and nothing shall be broken. I and my household is blessed with peace, prosperity and health and the number of our days we will fulfill. Amen.

Living the finished work

“He was wounded and crushed because of our sins; by taking our punishment, he made us completely well”
Isaiah 53:5(CEV)

As a Christian you were born into the finished works of Christ. This is because everything written before Jesus went to the cross was a promise, but after Jesus died and rose again, all the promises have become our reality; in other words we have a right to enjoy everyone of those promises now.

For instance, before Jesus went to the cross Isaiah the Prophet prophesied many years before in Isaiah 53:5 saying, “But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.” Then after Jesus died and rose again, Peter the Apostle said in 1 Peter 2:24, “Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.”

Notice that Isaiah said, “…with his stripes we are healed.” After the cross Peter said, “…by whose stripes ye were healed.” This means that when you became born again, you were born into a life of health. So stop waiting for God to heal you, take your healing right now in the Name of Jesus because  by His stripes you were healed.

CONFESSION
 In the Name of Jesus I declare that by the stripes of Jesus I was healed. Right now on the authority of the Name of Jesus and the power of the Word of God; I speak life to every fiber of my being, every bone of my body and every cell of my blood, from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet I am completely made whole. Amen.
