RECEIVE GRACE TO REIGN IN LIFE FAR ABOVE ALL PRINCIPALITIES AND POWER Rom:5:17 For if because of one mans trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [Gods] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE HAVE BEING GIVEN ALL AUTHORITY BOTH ON EARTH AND IN HEAVEN TO LIVE A LIFE OF VICTORY OVER EVERY ADVERSARY THAT WILL EVER COMES OUR WAY.Luke:10:19 Behold! I have given you authority {and} power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and [physical and mental strength and ability] over all the power that the enemy [possesses]; and nothing shall in any way harm you. THE DEATH AND THE RESURRECTION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST HAS BROUGHT US A GLORIOUS, VICTORIOUS, TRIUMPHING, AND OVERCOMING LIFE, SO LET US REFUSE TO LIVE A LIFE OF FAILURE. Rom:4:25 Who was betrayed {and} put to death because of our misdeeds and was raised to secure our justification (our acquittal), [making our account balance and absolving us from all guilt before God]. Rom:5:7-8:Now it is an extraordinary thing for one to give his life even for an upright man, though perhaps for a noble {and} lovable {and} generous benefactor someone might even dare to die.But God shows {and} clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE KINGS AND PRIEST.Rev:5:10 And You have made them a kingdom (royal race) and priests to our God, and they shall reign [as kings] over the earth! AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE A CHOSEN PEOPLE, PECULIAR AND A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD.1Pet:2:9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, [Gods] own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds {and} display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE HONOURABLE IN THE EYES OF THE LORD:Isaiah:43:4 Because you are precious in My sight and honored, and because I love you, I will give men in return for you and peoples in exchange for your life. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE AN OVERCOMER,TRIUMPH, CONQUEROR, AND VICTORIOUS. 1Cor:15:57 But thanks be to God, Who gives us the victory [making us conquerors] through our Lord Jesus Christ.2Cor:2:14 But thanks be to God, Who in Christ always leads us in triumph [as trophies of Christs victory].... AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE HAVE ALL SUFFICIENCY IN EVERY AREA OF OUR LIVES ENDEAVOUR, WHERE THERE IS NOTHING MISSING AND NOTHING LACKING.2Cor:9:8 And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always {and} under all circumstances {and} whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].8:9 For you are becoming progressively acquainted with {and} recognizing more strongly {and} clearly the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (His kindness, His gracious generosity, His undeserved favor and spiritual blessing), [in] that though He was [so very] rich, yet for your sakes He became [so very] poor, in order that by His poverty you might become enriched (abundantly supplied). Mark:16:17 -18: And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages;They will pick up serpents; and [even] if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE HAVE PEACE WITH GOD.Rom :5:1 THEREFORE, SINCE we are justified (acquitted, declared righteous, and given a right standing with God) through faith, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE ACCEPTABLE TO GOD IN CHRIST.Eph:1:6 [So that we might be] to the praise {and} the commendation of His glorious grace (favor and mercy), which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. Eph:2:8-9:For it is by free grace (Gods unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment {and} made partakers of Christs salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God;Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Laws demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.] AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE HAVE BEING DELIVERED FROM THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS TO THE MARVELLOUS LIGHT KINGDOM OF GOD. Col:1:13-14: [The Father] has delivered {and} drawn us to Himself out of the control {and} the dominion of darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, In Whom we have our redemption {through His blood,} [which means] the forgiveness of our sins.Eph:5:8 For once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of Light [lead the lives of those native-born to the Light]. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, THE CURSES OF THE LAW HAS NO MORE DOMINION OVER US. Gal:3:13-14: Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse (doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming a curse for us, for it is written [in the Scriptures], Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified); To the end that through [their receiving] Christ Jesus, the blessing [promised] to Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, so that we through faith might [all] receive [the realization of] the promise of the [Holy] Spirit. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE THE SALT AND THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. WE ARE TO BE INFLUENCING IN OUR SPHERE.Mat:5:13-16: You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste (its strength, its quality), how can its saltness be restored? It is not good for anything any longer but to be thrown out and trodden underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence {and} your praiseworthy, noble, {and} good deeds and recognize {and} honor {and} praise {and} glorify your Father Who is in heaven. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST WE ARE FORTIFIED, AND NO WEAPON OF ENEMY FORMED AGAINST US CAN PROSPER OVER US, BECAUSE THE LORD OF HOST DWELLS, RESIDE AND ABIDE IN US.Jer:1:18-19: For I, behold, I have made you this day a fortified city and an iron pillar and bronze walls against the whole land--against the [successive] kings of Judah, against its princes, against its priests, and against the people of the land [giving you divine strength which no hostile power can overcome].And they shall fight against you, but they shall not [finally] prevail against you, for I am with you, says the Lord, to deliver you. AS WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM. Col:2:9-10: For in Him the whole fullness of Deity (the Godhead) continues to dwell in bodily form [giving complete expression of the divine nature]. And you are in Him, made full {and} having come to fullness of life [in Christ you too are filled with the Godhead--Father, Son and Holy Spirit--and reach full spiritual stature]. And He is the Head of all rule and authority [of every angelic principality and power]. BECAUSE WE ARE IN CHRIST, WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUEROR. Rom:8:37 Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors {and} gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us. Phil:4:13 I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christs sufficiency]. AS A TRUE BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN, WE ARE JOINT HEIR WITH CHRIST. Rom:8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father! The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God. And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering if we are to share His glory. WHAT AN AWESOME LIFE WE HAVE IN CHRIST BY HIS GRACE!
