supernatural And “Uninfectable”
And these signs shall follow them that believe;
In my name shall they cast out devils;
they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents;
and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them;
they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover (Mark 16:17-18).
The above scripture is extraordinary; it reveals
something striking about the believing ones:
they’re supernatural beings. As a believer, there’s
something about you; you’re not ordinary, because
you have the divine life. It’s the reason you can’t be
poisoned or destroyed; the life of God in your spirit
has supplanted the human life! You’re now a partaker
of the divine nature; an associate of the God-kind.
It doesn’t matter what the enemy concocts
against you; it makes no difference how the poison
gets into your system; it shall have no power over
you. In Luke 10:19, Jesus said, “Behold, I give unto
you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and
over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall
by any means hurt you.” How much better can it get?
This is either true or false, but it’s true. Therefore, live
with the consciousness that you’re supernatural and
“uninefectable”; refuse to think otherwise.
Maybe you ate or drank something that’s causing
you pain and discomfort; well, it was because you didn’t
know the truth. Now that you know, declare the Word
until the divine life in you gains the ascendancy.
The problem of many is that they really don’t
believe. When Jesus used, “they” in the scripture under
reference, He was letting the disciples know what kind
of people would come from the resurrection. Christians
aren’t people who believe in Jesus and are trying to
get saved. Christians are people who have come from
death. They’re a different breed. That’s why the Bible
says, “But ye are a chosen generation…” (1 Peter 2:9).
The word “generation” is the same word for “breed.”
You’re a special breed, superior to the devil, sickness,
infirmities and anything that’s of the devil.
What you need is to upgrade your life; upgrade
your thinking, and see with the eyes of the Spirit. You’re
not of this world; you’ve been severed, separated
from the death, decay, and corrupting influences in
the world. Take charge from the realms of the spirit
and subdue your world and your environment. Live
victoriously every day through the Word, and by the Spirit.
Prayer
Blessed Father, you gave me the authority to cast out devils,
speak in tongues, and walk in victory and dominion over Satan,
the world, and its systems.
Thank you for your divine life in me, and the power of your Word
and the Holy Spirit in me today, and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen
