“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”John 10:10 (NKJV)
Even when you know all the words that says concerning you, yet you do not believe in your heart WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST, nothing will manifest in you. So it is our job to bring this abundant life into our soul.
1. BIBLE says you are ‘Child of God’ – Romans 8:11-14(NIV)
Old sinful nature will try to over power you. But you have to allow the Spirit of God to lead you. This is upto us. We decide and start doing. It will not happen automatically once you are in the Lord. You are cut off from earthly family and adopted into GOD’S FAMILY. e.g. Prince acting like a beggar
2. You are ‘Seated in heavenly places’ – Ephesians 2:4-7(NIV)
Imagine yourselves seated with Christ Jesus and Lord. How many of you imagined that way? Yes this is true. We are not somebody that are in this world. Our position is in the RIGHT HAND OF GOD with JESUS. Be bold and comfortable to communicate with God.
3. You ‘don’t belong to this world’ – 1 Peter 2:11-12(NIV)
Behaving like we belong to this world and setting our minds on worldly things will war against your soul that tries to live according to God’s expectation. We are supposed to live a SUPERNATURAL LIFE. Let not this world system affect you positively or negatively.
4. You are ‘Co-heirs of Jesus’ – Romans 8:14-17(NIV)
We are Co-heirs of God and Joint-heirs with Christ. If we really put in our mind what is to possess along with Jesus and God, you will live a more than normal life. e.g. JOINT A/C JESUS has with us and we got to just draw. Your Bank is above so do not depend on your Bank Balance. You have SUPERNATURAL PROVISION. Believe & receive it.
5. You have ‘Angels to help you’ – Hebrews 1:13-14(NIV)
Believe angels are there and they bring messages to you and help you in need. SUPERNATURAL PROTECTION & HELP. Imagine there are angels around you and believe.
6. ‘You already got’ what you need for this life and godliness – 2 Peter 1:2-4(NIV)
Use your DIVINE NATURE. Having the divine power is not at all enough. Receive by faith. Go on believing till you receive.
7. You have ‘Eternal Life – Not Death’ so always expect good. – John 5:24(NIV) & Romans 8:26-28(NIV)
You should believe bad things never come to you. Because JESUS says we crossed over already from death to life. Even it looks like that you should not accept. ALWAYS EXPECT GOOD THINGS.
8. You ‘Speak to the Mountain’ when problem comes – Mark 11:22-24(NIV)
You have to speak to your problem and ask it to leave. God will not do it for you. THANK GOD & SPEAK TO YOUR PROBLEM TO LEAVE. e.g. Jesus to raise Lazarus.
9. You ‘Resist the devil’, when he messes in your mind – James 4:5-7(NIV)
You ask the Devil to leave in JESUS’ NAME otherwise he will go on troubling you. God expects you to do. When the Devil messes with your mind with negative thoughts SHUT HIM UP.
10. ‘Walk by faith not by sight’ – 2 Corinthians 13:5(NIV)
Find out for yourselves whether you are in faith and whether JESUS is in you. Find out.
11. You are ‘Spiritual Being’ – 1 Peter 2:1-3(NIV); Hebrews 5:12-14(NIV)
Feed yourselves with WORD OF GOD(milk) and EXERCISE what you LEARNT(meat).
12. ‘Put your heart on heavenly things’ – Colossians 3:1-4(NIV)
Find out. What pleases GOD? How I can bless JESUS? This will give a clear picture of what to do in this world. You need to store up things for you in heaven. You do that with the perishable things over here – Make friends JESUS said and help poor.
13. ‘Do greater work for God’ for JESUS depends on you – John 14:12-14(NIV)
Signs and wonders will follow you as you give the gospel to people around you. Just like it happened to JESUS and his disciples. Even greater things than JESUS we are supposed to do.e.g. Bro. DGS Dhinakaran, Benny Hinn.
14. ‘Rejoice in the Lord always’ – Philippians 4:4-7(NIV)
Joy of the Lord is our strength to go on. THE LORD IS WITH US ALWAYS.
15. ‘Show love to good & bad’ as your Father does – Matthew 5:43-48(NIV)
You should act as if you have got all that your Father got in POWER and GOOD DEEDS. Step by step you can attain your full potential as JESUS. Do not give up when you fail. The devil wants you to feel powerless so that he can defeat you. Ask Holy Spirit to help you. He is willing to do. NO USE LIVING FOR THIS WORLD.
LIVE A SPIRITUAL LIFE WHICH IS LIFE ABUNDANT.
