All powers have been given to me
To live a renewed life in Christ, the life of the chosen, the redeemed and the one from the new Israel the new heaven and new earth in Jesus means to receive all the power and authority to rule as king and to have oversight and dominion over the earth and to have spiritual supremacy over all demonic forces. A renewed life is to be saved, to have eternal life through Christ Jesus.
Matthew 28:18-20
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Jesus Christ said all authorities have been given to HIM. I mean all authorities have been given back to Jesus. In Gen 1 28-30 authority and dominion was given to man Adam and Eve over the earth to cultivate and care for it and to control it. Because the authority and power was stolen from man in Gen 3 (the fall of man) by the thief. John 10:10.The old Serpent sole intentions were:
1. The destruction of man (the creation of man was Gods own initiation in his grace, his project of filling the whole world with brethren who are holy and whose obligation it was to worship him (see Rev 4:11)
2. To kill humanity completely (deceptively he told them, you shall not surely die, but knowing they shall certainly perish spiritually and letter physically too.)
3. To steal his wealth and power and the authority. (The authority and power of Adam was lost to the devil)
Indeed he succeeded and the innocent man Adam who suffered the identity crises lost woefully. From this point man became a slave to sin and the Devil.
Having received all authority and power from God, our lord Jesus went to the grave and defeated the devil the old serpent and retrieved the key the authority and power from the wicked one and is giving it to the elect. Jesus Christ is really sending those who live under his authority to the ones who have not yet received Him Jesus. Those who have not received salvation are not left out. Jesus Christ cares and loves them. Now Jesus is e delegating you and I to go and continue what he described as his FOOD; to do the will of his father.
To teach and baptize them, we need to first fill ourselves with the truth of the word of God. Psalm chapter 1:1-3 indicated that the righteous feed themselves with the word and in Joshua chapter 1:8 Jahweh commanded the Joshua to meditate in the book of law daily in order to become effective, successful and prosperous.
We need to realise that from the foundation of the creation, God the creator has chosen us and blessed us for his glory.
Luke 10:18-22
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
In the early chapter of this book, we discussed the power of the blessing in given to man from the foundation from the creation of this earth. To man was it given authority and dominion over everything that has life on earth.
Ephesians 1:3-5
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
4 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:
5 Having predestined us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Genesis 1:28-30
28 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. 29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Authority of rulership over all rebellious spirits was clearly declared in Genesis1 verse 30 when the beast and dragon as well as spirits of the air and even the creeping forces.
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
The beasts stand for the demonic occupation and the dragon in the book of revelation. The fowl are the rebellious demonic forces looking for where to live. These Flying homeless demons looking for empty minds and hearts to occupy and posses. Knowing these helps us to realise who this Christ we profess is. Jesus Christ is the word of God, the light that subdued darkness and eternal life, that resurrected life. He was from the beginning. He is the only way to our salvation read John 1verse1-2
John 1:10-13
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
The time we realise who he is and humble our selves and believe and receive him .then he adopts us as his own .we break away from this worldly dominated way of life.
May I implore you to be strong and courageous No matter the situation you are facing today, anchor yourself on Christ who is resurrected and has redeemed us from sin and has given us salvation. When we accept Christ as our saviour and follow his footstep, and (keep his commandments) and spread this gospel, he will be with us till the end of the time as he promised in. Matt 28:18 -20
HE is willing to heal all our afflictions and diseases. Matthew. 1:41. to crown it all, he has retrieved and restored for you and I the power and. authority of dominion over everything here on earth. We only need be courageous believing in Him, and then we can do exploits.
Mark 16:15-18
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18. They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Reporting the same what we just read from Matthew chapter 28 verse 18-20, Mark brought some thing to lime light Not only did Jesus receive power and authority, he passed it to you and I to carry out miraculous sings and wonders. Authority to heal the sick and to defeat the serpent the dragon, the devil.
Now that your live is renewed, stand up and head towards Jesus, shoulder up walk, like the King which you are and take up your position and the word of God and power of the Holy Spirit shall be upon you.
Take your place among the redeemed of the Lord. Declare your inheritance
Matthew 18:18-20
18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Here in Matthews’s gospel its clear that Christ has redeemed the life and dominion our first parents lost to Satan the Devil. As I’m writing I have eternal in Christ Jesus. What more do I deserve than to be saved.
Psalm 107:2
2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy. Our ach enemy the devil the Satan has been defeated and put to shame. You have been saved by the blood of the lamb and elevated by the grace of the Lord.
Shout Halleluiah, speak in heavenly languages because, the prophesies of redemption and salvation has come to pass in our time. We are blessed and loved. We are in the third day, the three thousand year of the Lord.
Receive your eternal life in Christ Jesus. AMEN.
Isaiah 51:11
11 Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
