POWER IS FOR THE SONS

“But as many as received Him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe in His name” John 1:12.

LIGHT FOR THE NOW: When you understand what Jesus did at the cross, you begin to walk in victory.

There is a mystery behind the cross. It is much more than the tree or stick we see. The cross is the evidence of the power of God. It is the evidence of our Christianity. Christianity without power is a mere religion. By the law of relationship, all the deeds at the cross are now left for us to claim them. The blood of Jesus that was shed at the cross becomes our defense in life. The finished work at the cross of Calvary brought justification to men by the blood of Jesus. It is therefore an abuse of privilege to know Jesus and live an ordinary life devoid of the manifestation of power. When you understand what Jesus came to do for you at the Cross of Calvary, Satan will not be able to withstand you anymore. The cross remains an eternal symbol of the defeat of Satan.

God defeated Satan and all power belongs to God and His saints (Psalm 62:11; Luke 10:19; Mark16:17-18). Power is the dynamic ability to cause changes. If you cannot bring change to your situation, then you cannot bring change to your generation. When you possess power, you have the ability to change any situation you don’t like. The knowledge of the Word of God that you have endorses you for power. You can access power through the name of Jesus. You must believe in the Lord Jesus in order to access the power made available to you. God also defeated Satan and handed over riches to believers. The riches of God brings favour to men (Exodus 3:21; Psalm 30:5). The redemptive power of God helps you connect to the wisdom of God. Wisdom is knowing what to do per time, how to do it and when to do it. All these things that Jesus collected from Satan, he did not take them back to heaven. Power, riches, wisdom has been handed over to believers in Christ Jesus to enable us live a victorious life here on earth. It is the responsibility of believers to come into this knowledge that Satan has been defeated and does not have any stronghold on them anymore.
