The Nature Of The New Man In Christ. Series

2 Tim 3:16-17.

"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."

The perishing of souls and sufferings of damages by believers can only be linked to ignorance of the word. People make merchandise of you when you are ignorant of what God says to you and say of you.

The mandate of the church, therefore, is the impartation of the knowledge of Christ and the nature this knowledge create in the New man.

Mark 16:15.

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."

It's through the preaching of the word that people come to the knowledge of the truth.

John 8:32

"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

Freedom from sin, oppression, demonic possession, lack and all the rest comes when we receive the knowledge of the light of the word.

Psalms 119:130

"The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple."

Psalms 107:20

"He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions."

Heb 4:12

"For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

THE GIFT OF NO-CONDEMNATION

The devil is going to wage war continuously against your mind. He is going to make you feel unprofitable, unqualified and worthless. But that's no longer you!

2 Cor 5:17-19

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new...."

You have received the gift of no condemnation! The devil can no longer condemn you, so don't condemn yourself.

Gal 5:1

"Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage."

Guilt is a disqualifier and unnecessary guilt is a destroyer and a yoke of bondage. The devil cannot harm you until he first makes you guilty.

The reason Christ died was for you to live in this gift.

Ephesians 1:4b

"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:"

The gift of no condemnation had established peace for us with God forever

Romans 5:1

"

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:"

THE GIFT OF THE SPIRIT.

Victory over satanic challenges is only possible until we realize that we have been given the gift of the Spirit. You might be a natural being but your walk is in the Spirit and is supernatural.

John 1:12

"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:"

Psalms 82:6

"I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High."

If God calls you His child, you have his traits.

John 3:6-8

"That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit...."

Being born of God grants us victory over Satan and all his works.

1 John 4:4

"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world...."

We received this gift, when we received Christ.

2 Cor 1:22

"Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts."

Ephesians 1:13

"In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,"

THE GIFT OF DOMINION

Along with the new man's nature comes the gift of Dominion. You rule through the Spirit and are in charge. Satan has no power but the one you ascribe to him. Until you know that, Satan will always use and mesmerize you.

Ephesians 1:19-22

"And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,...

Ephesians 2:6

"And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:"

If seated with him in the heavenly, we exercise Dominion as he does.

The nature of the new man is to live in Dominion over sin, lust and the flesh.

Rom 8:2

"For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death."

Declaration:

I walk in power, I walk in miracle, I walk in victory.
