Paul, in his time, spoke about the end time. He said that they were in the end time in those days! This means we have reached the very end of the end time! And because of the times in which we live, when many things are failing, ignorance is not an excuse. It is necessary to know and be convinced about certain things from the Word of God otherwise you will live and fall like a mere man when you ought to be living like the New Creation that you are.
2
Corinthians 5:17: “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a
new creature (creation): old things are passed away; behold all things are
become new.”
You are not a mere man, because you have the life of God in
you. The Greater One lives in you and you have ceased to be an ordinary person.
John
10:10: “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I
am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly.”
1
John 4:4: “Ye are of God, little children, and have
overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the
world.”
You must be established in this otherwise you will get swept
away with the fear that is going around in the world. You must not be ignorant
or the devil and traditions and the law will thrive on your ignorance about
what God has done for you. You are not a normal person. You are not an ordinary
person! You will be in the midst of crisis and terrorist attacks and bombings
and dangers and accidents, and you will walk out of them unhurt. You will be in
the midst of dangerous diseases and viruses and you will be unhurt. The things
that harm and kill normal people will come to you and you will still be
standing, because “the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made you free from
the law of sin and death.”
The presence of the Holy Ghost in you has made you a
super-person! You are better than the superheroes you see on TV like Thor and
the X-Men. What you have on the inside of you is far greater than what they
have. The circumstance or danger doesn’t change what is inside you; it brings
out what is inside you. Just like the warrior in Thor rises to the challenge,
so we ought to let the power on the inside of us rise to the challenges around
us. What if you are not exempted from the trouble when it comes? What if you
are in the midst of it?
Psalm
20:1: “The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob
defend thee;”
The Lord will deliver you in the middle of the plane crash, or the bomb blast!
Psalm
91:1: “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide
under the shadow of the Almighty.”
Psalm
91:7-8, 11: “A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten
thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine
eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked…For he shall give his
angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.”
The day of trouble reveals the character of your spirit and
your soul. In the day of trouble, what is in your head will be of no effect but
what is in your heart will answer to the situation.
We are raising champions here! God has made you a champion
and you are manifesting what He has made you.
Give voice to the Christ in you!
When you come to the place of lack, and your knees are
jittery, do not despair! Go back to the Word and let it soak into your
consciousness until it bursts out of you and you kick the lack out! Assume the
character of God’s Word until it begins to paint pictures in your heart and
fear dissolves! God is your Refuge, your Provision and your Defender, He is
your Protector! You have no reason to be afraid because you are not taking care
of yourself. You are not your protector and your defender, God is! And you must
let this become a conviction that settles in your heart. Come to know the
principle of life that is at work in you. It eliminates death.
Romans
8:2: “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from
the law of sin and death.”
2
Corinthians 5:17: “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a
new creature (creation): old things are passed away; behold all things are
become new.”
You are in Christ; your sins are forgiven; you are
righteous. You are better than Superman!
