BEING RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD
“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”
2 Corinthians 5:21
Main Text: Main Text: 2 Corinthians 5:17
The plan of the enemy is for the humanity to be doomed forever. John 10;10 expressly summarized the mission of the enemy as to kill, steal and to destroy. Anyways, he’s still deploying the same approach and ONLY if you are saved by grace that you escaped from the jaws of death. Jesus came to give life to humanity and to give it abundantly!
God sent His Son as a sacrifice to come and redeem man from deadness to life! The first Adam died spiritually, and became distant with God, Satan was excited, he thought he had defeated man, but God has a plan, a plan of restitution a plan to restore man back to his former glory, therefore, he sent his Son Jesus as the last Adam and he made us alive together with Christ Jesus!
The new creature is alive to God! And being alive to God means awakened to his reality! We need to be conformed to the death of Christ. That is, reckoning ourselves dead to sin and all its effects upon us in the same way that Christ is dead to sin and all its effects upon Him. Many people focus on the death to sin and omit, or at least put secondarily, being alive unto God. When you said Yes to Jesus, a spiritual transformation happened that changed the status of your inner man!
God is not the God of the dead but of the living (Mark 12:27) you are alive in Christ! Put on the whole armor of God! you are not ordinary! you have a future, hope! A life in Christ Jesus! Why not begin to grow in the revelation of who you are today! I tell you the evident grace of your divine life in Christ shall be made know to all.
Confession:
I am alive in Christ Jesus unto God; nothing dies around me! I experience noiseless breakthroughs! I am blessed beyond measures! Hallelujah!
