#DailyVictoryDevotional FRIDAY AUGUST 15 2014. TOPIC: YOUR NEW STATUS GOLDEN SCRIPTURE: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new - 2 Corinthians 5:17. The word ‘status’ implies a person’s legal position and social standing. Usually it speaks of someone’s rank or social position in terms of respect and honour. Redemption accords the son’s of God a new spiritual, physical, and social status. The bible says we are raised up together with Christ and made to sit together with him in the heavenly places, far above principalities and powers. There are three classes of spirit that rule in the world of the spirit, i.e. the spirit of God, the spirit of man, and the spirit of the devils. Of all, the Spirit of God is the apex, followed by that of man, because man was created in the image of God, and through redemption was further initiated into the realm of God; because through Christ, the redeemed man is given the power to become the son of God. The bible says they are begotten of God and have become God’s offspring. Having made us to sit together with Christ, men now share in his power and authority. Satan and his demons are now under us. We have acquired a new status in God. We are now sons with full sonship rights. PRAYER: Lord, thank you for who you have made me in Christ. BIBLE IN ONE YEAR PLAN: Psalms 94 – 96, Romans 15: 14 – 33.
