KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:” Ephesians 1: 3 (KJV)
In order to reign, you must know and understand what is available to you. The gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is a complete gospel. It is a total package. It tells you where you are coming from and also let you know what you are entitled to. We have in time past failed to emphasize the believer’s entitlement. So when somebody says “I am a Christian” he does not even know what makes him one. He is ignorant about what is available to him.
The believer is in Christ. That means that everything Jesus deserves; you are entitled to as well. Everything Jesus deserves you also get. You are not just redeemed from sin; you are also blessed. As a believer, you are standing on blessed ground where there is no sickness, lack, barrenness, struggle, or curse. On this blessed ground, you are made wealthy. He brought you out so He can set your feet on solid rock. He does not just bring you out so you can stay on the muddy ground. No! He brought you out so that you can stay in a wealthy place. Child of God, understand the fact that Jesus is wealthy! Therefore, you cannot but desire wealth.
When you wake up in the morning, expect only good to come to you. What is good is your portion and there is nothing the devil can do about it. This is so because Jesus took everything that has to do with you and handed over everything that has to do with Him. It was a spiritual exchange, and you must understand this to appropriate it. Don’t let the devil lie to you. Don’t let him look at you based on your present circumstance. Anyone looking at you based on your circumstance now is deceived because I can tell you without any shadow of a doubt that we have not heard the last of you. You will spring a surprise!
