Complete Access In Christ.

“According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:”.     
Ephesians 1:4 

From our opening scripture, we see that God sees us through the eyes of love. We are holy and without blame before Him in love all because of what Jesus accomplished for us. That means that if you are born again, God does not hold your past against you. The Bible says that now that you are born again, you are holy without blame before Him in love.

You may have done something wrong and some people may still remember the things you did wrong and ascribe that offence to you. But if you have confessed your sin and wrongdoing, in the sight of God, you are without blame. This is because the Bible says in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” So in the sight of God, satan cannot bring any record against you because you are holy and without blame before him in love. Praise God.

Ephesians1:5 says, “Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,” In other words, God was delighted in saving you. This is because He saved us according to the good pleasure of His will. He adopted us to be His children by Jesus Christ. He is happy we belong to Him. God is not regretting that He has you. He is excited that He has you. His grace made you  accepted. Hallelujah.

Prayer.
Dear Father, I thank you with all my heart for sending Jesus Christ to die for me. Today because of what He did for me I am saved, I am delivered and I am made completely free from sin, its power and its condemnation by the blood of Jesus Christ. To You alone belong all the praise and glory, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.

The Day To Receive

“And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.” 
John 16:23

In our opening scripture, the Lord Jesus was talking about a day in which we will not need to ask Him for anything. That day is today. These are the days of receiving. So release your faith and be ready to receive from the Father whatever you desire of Him. Jesus said in our opening scripture, “Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.” John 16:24 says, “Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.”

John 16:26-27 says, “At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.” The Lord Jesus is saying to us here that He does not need to pray to the Father for us because the Father Himself loves us because we love Jesus.

Do you know that the Father Himself loves you and you do not need any intermediary to talk to Him or to pray to Him on your behalf? The Father Himself wants to hear you. You now have direct access to the Father and He is ready to give you whatsoever you ask if you believe.

The Bible says in James 1:5(GW), “If any of you needs wisdom to know what you should do, you should ask God, and he will give it to you. God is generous to everyone and doesn't find fault with them.” Remember that God is generous. And He will always be generous to you because He loves you. This is why the Bible says in Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us” This is your day of abundance because it is the day to receive.

Prayer.
Dear Father, I believe I receive the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you. I believe I receive (name whatsoever you desire) right now according to your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

How To Become Righteous?

 “Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.”               Galatians 2:16

From our opening scripture it is obvious to us that no flesh is justified in the sight of God by keeping the law. In other words, no man can be made righteous in the sight of God by keeping the law. No matter how much you keep the law, you are not righteous in the sight of God, you may be righteous in someone else's sight but not in the sight of God because God knows the heart. The Bible says in 1 Samuel 16:7, “…for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.”

So how do you become righteous? Galatians 2:16(ALT) says, “having known that a person is not justified [or, declared righteous] by works of [the] Law but by means of faith in Jesus Christ, we also believed in Christ Jesus, so that we shall be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of [the] Law, because no flesh [at] all will be justified by works of [the] Law!”

Therefore, “… if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-10.

Except by the means of faith in Jesus Christ, you cannot be righteous. Righteousness is a gift and it is the inheritance of those who believe in Jesus Christ. Therefore, one of the ways we express our faith in Jesus Christ is by being born again. So, if you want to be born again please pray the prayer below:

Prayer of Salvation.
“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 Saviour. Jesus, come into my heart, make me a new person. I receive eternal life into my spirit even now. I declare that I am righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.”

Live By God's Ability.

“Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Philippians 2:12-13

In our opening scripture, we see Paul urging the Philippian Church who has been living in obedience to obey much more in His absence. Someone may ask, “How can someone obey you much more in your absence?” This is difficult for some to do because it is easier for them to obey a leader when he is present with them than when he is absent. But Paul says He expects them to obey him much more in his absence, why? He tells us why in Philippians 2:13 saying, “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” In other words, God will give you the desire and the ability to do what pleases Him.

Therefore, if God requires anything from you, expect Him to give you the ability to do it. For instance, if you desire to pray, receive the grace to pray and you would not struggle to pray.

Therefore, when you know that grace and God's favour is always flowing to you, your attitude to life will change. You will begin to live your life with the mentality that you can do all things through Christ which strenghthens you. Having the sufficiency of Christ at work in you is also your inheritance in Christ.

Prayer.
 Dear Father, I thank You because the sufficiency of Christ is at work in me; empowering me to will and do of Your good pleasure. Thank you Father, for a release of Your grace towards me filling me with the ability to do all Your good pleasure today and always, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Freed From Death.

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned” 
Romans 5:12

Do you know that on the cross Jesus took the place of all humanity? The principle is what we see in our opening scripture that reveals to us that by one man, Adam, sin entered the world, and by the sin of that one man death passed upon all men. That was the same principle that accomplished the redemption. One man, Jesus Christ was sacrificed and the power of sin and death was broken from every man.

“Yet, death ruled from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, death ruled over all human beings, even over those who did not sin in the same way that Adam did when he disobeyed God's command. Adam was a figure of the one who was to come. But the two are not the same, because God's free gift is not like Adam's sin. It is true that many people died because of the sin of that one man. But God's grace is much greater, and so is his free gift to so many people through the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ. And there is a difference between God's gift and the sin of one man. After the one sin, came the judgement of "Guilty"; but after so many sins, comes the undeserved gift of "Not guilty!" It is true that through the sin of one man death began to rule because of that one man.

 But how much greater is the result of what was done by the one man, Jesus Christ! All who receive God's abundant grace and are freely put right with him will rule in life through Christ. So then, as the one sin condemned all people, in the same way the one righteous act sets all people free and gives them life. And just as all people were made sinners as the result of the disobedience of one man, in the same way they will all be put right with God as the result of the obedience of the one man.” Romans 5:14-19 (GNB)

Confession.
By my faith in Jesus Christ I declare that I have received abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness, therefore I reign in this life over the law of sin and death. Amen.

For further study, read:
Romans 5:21, Romans 8:1-2, Romans 8:10-13.

Doing the Word.
Be conscious of God's abundant grace upon you empowering you to live above sin and death.

No More Curses.

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree” 
Galatians 3:13

Today, I want you to settle it in your heart that the work of the cross was enough to completely settle you in glory. The work of the cross completely accomplished your total deliverance, safety, prosperity, health, etc. God had anticipated all the problems that you will ever have and offered the perfect sacrifice, now all you need to do is receive.

Someone may say, “Pastor, I am cursed.” Our opening scripture says, “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree” On the cross, all your curses were upon Jesus. The one that should not prosper died on the cross. The one that should not be able to have a child died on the cross.

Therefore, whatever curses that has been laid on you or that has existed in your family history, Christ has redeemed you from all such the day you got born again. From that day, if only you knew it; that curse ceased to be effective in your life anymore. The reason you are still suffering under that curse is because you do not know the truth. Now that you know the truth, walk out of every curse in the Name of Jesus.  The Bible says, “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony …” Revelation 12:11.

Confession.
In the Name of Jesus and by my faith in the Word of God, I declare that I have been delivered from every curse because Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law; every curse was upon Jesus on the cross. Now I am blessed beyond every curse. There is no enchantment or divination that can work against me. Whatever evil assigned against me is destroyed in the Name of Jesus.

For further study, read: 
Numbers 23:23, Matthew 16:18, Luke 10:19, Galatians 3:13-14(MSG).

Doing the Word.
Stop seeing yourself as cursed. Every curse became ineffective the day you got born again.

Get Rid Of All Symptoms.

“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.”                 
2 Corinthians 4:18

Yesterday, you learnt that your healing was already accomplished by Jesus for you over 2000 years ago. You also learnt that no sickness or disease has any right to remain in your body right now because of what Jesus accomplished for you.

Today, I will like to answer your question if you are trying to appropriate this truth in your life but you are still having doubts because of what you are feeling in your body or what you can still see in your body?

Firstly, I want you to know that what God says is more real than what you feel or see. For instance, if you dealing with a lump in your body, if God says you are healed, it is more real than what you feel or see. This is because the moment He said you were healed, the sickness was gone; He destroyed it from the root. Yet someone may say, “Pastor, I still feel and see the lump.” Remember what the Word says in our opening scripture, “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

” Stop looking at the negative symptoms you are seeing, they are not real; they are subject to change. Look back at the cross and accept what Jesus Christ has already accomplished for you then speak to your body, say, “In the Name of Jesus, as He is so am I in this world. There is no lump in the body of Jesus, so there is no lump in this body. I am after the same kind with Jesus. By His stripes I am healed. Lump you are gone, you are in my past.” As you consistently speak that way to whatever symptoms you still feel or see, after a while it will disappear and dematerialize because all such symptoms are subject to change by the Word of God. Get rid of them with God's Word because it has no right to be in your body now because it belongs to the past.

Confession.
I take the Word of God as final authority in my life. I declare that the Word of God is producing in my health, finances and every area of my life what it talks about, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

For further study, read: 
Matthew 21:18-22, Mark 11:12-14, 20-24, Romans 4:19-21(MSG).

Doing the Word.
Keep speaking the Word of God to your body and circumstances and stop observing the symptoms.
