Reigning in Christ Jesus



  One of the most exciting privileges of any Christian is the right to reign over all the situations life may bring on his way. A religious mind will have problem with this very truth because he doesn’t know Christ Jesus. This truth can only be accepted by people who listen to him and it is not only about listening  but also because  they have personal experiences with the power of the word of God. 1 John 4:6, “we are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us.” But if you can take in this truth your life will never be the same.



                                              Why is the Christians Reigning?
  Romans 5:17, “…because of one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and gift of righteousness will reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.” They are reigning because they have received the abundance of grace and gift of righteousness; they are reigning in life because the elements of the world or sin are not part of their new life; they are born of God.
                                                      They reign as Kings
Revelation 5:10, “…and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.” Christians reign as kings because God has made you to reign on earth.  That is why they will decree a thing in the name of Jesus and it will be established. We overcome the world.  Christians are the only being on earth that has the ability to overcome the world and all its elements. 1 John 5:4-5, “for everyone who has born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome that has overcome the world-our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?


                                            You can reign over all  your problems today
 There is an opportunity for you to “king” over all the unfavourable  situations you may be facing in your life today, even right at this moment as you are reading this message or article. God is not about to change and He cannot change because of your problems. You can dare to believe in Jesus Christ today and you will see your life will take a new direction of glory to glory.

You are alive by the Spirit

    But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you Romans 8:11. God gave birth to us by the Word, through the spirit. You’re not ordinary person if you are in Christ or if you have the new life in Christ Jesus. The human life you received from your parents has been replaced, supplanted, by the divine life of Christ. 1 Peter 1:23 says, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of corruptible, by the word of god, which liveth and abideth forever.”    Often, I tell people that Christianity is more than a legal document; it’s a vital experience; there’s a true life from Christ beating in your heart which is the new life in Christ Jesus. The natural man (anyone without the New Life in Christ Jesus or anyone who is not born again) lives by blood, but a Christian lives by the Spirit. No wonder Jesus, referring to the ne...

The Reign of Death is over

  Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come (Romans 5:14)  Satan became the god of this earth because he got it from Adam who lost out through disobedience, resulting significantly in the reign of death. Remember, God had told Adam, “… in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die” (Genesis 2:17). He was talking about spiritual death; spiritual death is the cause of physical death. So, our theme verse says, “Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses (the Law of Moses)…”  But who had the power of death? The Bible says, “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is the devil” (Hebrews 2:14). Satan was actually behind this reign of death. Now, here’s something exciting that I want ...

The Divinity of Jesus

   “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father; but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, have seen him” John 14:6-7.   “Is Jesus really God?”   This is one question many still ask today. They believe He was a great prophet and teacher, but find it difficult to accept that He is Himself God, but He is. The Bible says “In the beginning was the Word, and the word was with God, and the Word was God ” John 1:1. That “Word” that the Bible says “was God” became flesh-Jesus- and dwelt among us: “And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:14.     Now, the prophecy that came forth before the birth of Jesus also foretold His divinity: “Behold, a virgin shall be with a child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanue...
