The Glory Of His Sacrifice
Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and
searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace
that should come unto you: Searching what, or
what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was
in them did signify, when it testified beforehand
the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should
follow (1 Peter 1:10-11)
It was God-ordained that Christ should suffer
and the result of His suffering be glory, victory,
success and prosperity for us all. Therefore, you’re
to celebrate what Jesus did for you; He didn’t die for
nothing; His vicarious death gave mankind victory over
sin and its effects.
By hanging on the cross, as God’s sacrifice for sin,
He took your place and gave you the victory. Now,
God wants you not only to proclaim that victory, but
to live every day in the victory of His death, burial and
glorious resurrection. This means, if you were lying on
a sickbed, it’s time to get up for you’ve received life
in Christ.
The same goes for poverty; it shouldn’t take a hold
of you anymore for Jesus took your place of poverty
and gave you prosperity: “For ye know the grace
of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich,
yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through
his poverty might be rich” (2 Corinthians 8:9). You
can live absolutely debt-free now because the Lord
supplies all your need according to His riches in glory
by Christ Jesus.
Live with this consciousness. You’ve been chosen
out of the world and separated unto the glory-life.
The Bible says you’re “...a chosen race, a priesthood
of kingly lineage, a holy nation, a people belonging
specially to God, that you may make known the
perfections of Him who called you out of darkness
into His marvellous light” (1 Peter 2:9 WNT).
You’re a special breed, born with the life and
nature of God. He has designated your path to be that
of victory and success only.
Prayer
I thank you Lord for bringing me out of darkness into your
marvellous light, where I reign and rule as a king in life, enjoying
the joy, health, peace, prosperity, progress, success and victory
you’ve made available to me in Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
