<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Through our Lord Jesus Christ, we
have received abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness to reign in
life. So, grace and righteousness are two powerful forces given to empower new
creation in Christ to reign over the forces of financial hardships. The Holy
Scriptures is replete with cases where God’s people were exempted and shielded
from calamities and famines as demonstrations of God’s grace and glory. Our God
is the same yesterday, today and forever (Heb. 13:8). <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">No matter the severity of hardships
and difficulty in the land, if God’s people can stand in the abundance of grace
and the gift of righteousness made available to us in Christ, our souls shall
be delivered from famine. In Psalms 33:18-19 and Psalms 37:18-19, God’s
assurances are very certain that we shall not be ashamed in evil times and in
the days of famine we shall be satisfied. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In 2 Cor.
9:8, God is able to make His grace abound towards us (God’s people), so that in
all things and in all times we will always have more than enough to abound in
good works. God gives His grace and glory as sun and shield to ensure that no
good thing is withheld from His people (Ps. 84:11-12).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Isaiah
prophesied that when the darkness covers the earth and gross darkness His
people, God will arise upon us (because of His grace) and His glory shall be
seen upon us to distinguish us from the darkness. In gen. 6:6-8, Noah found
grace in the eyes of the Lord and he and his family were exempted from the
holocaust sent to consume mankind. That ark he built was a type or shadow of
Jesus Christ today as a new creation is entering the ark of exemption. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The Bible
says hardships are meant to be the experiences of transgressors/sinners
(Prov.13:15). God does not allow the righteous and the sinners to suffer the
same fate (Ps.37:18-20). In the days of Abraham and Isaac, there was famine,
but they came out stronger after the famine than they were before it
(Gen.12:10; 13:1-2; Gen 26:1, 12-14). The grave of hardship is too small to
hold the righteous (Ps.16:10).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">There is
therefore no better time for the believers to stand in faith appropriating the
forces of grace and righteousness than now. We must get ourselves to believe in
what Christ has accomplished to provide abundance of grace and the gift of
righteousness to reign over financial hardships. The faith of the believer is a
believing and a speaking faith (2 Cor.4:13; Rom.10:6-9). We should therefore
not fear what the people of the world fear and talk the way they talk. The New
Testament faith is released in speaking the word of God. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">During the teaching of last week, we
stated that salvation is a movement from the lower realm of life in the world
into a higher realm of life in Christ. This movement was powered by man’s
redemption and forgiveness of sin accomplished by Jesus Christ through His
blood (Col. 1:12-14). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 9.0pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Our redemption through our Lord Jesus
Christ provides the platform for our operating in the higher life in Him. We
have already been delivered from the powers of darkness that held sway in the
lower realm of this world and translated (carried to a higher realm) in Christ.
No wonder Jesus said in John16:33 that in Him we shall have peace but in the
world we shall have tribulations. This clearly affirms that there are two
realms of living viz: Life in Christ (the higher realm) and life in the world
(the lower realm). Redemption moves the believer from life in the world where
the powers of darkness hold sway to Life in Christ; where Jesus reigns
(Colo.1:13). For the believer to operate in the reality of the new realm he/she
has been lifted to function, his/her thinking has to be transformed through the
renewal of his mind (Rom.12:2).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 9.0pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The believer has to begin to think
and operate in God’s higher thoughts and ways (Isa.55:8-9). He/she has to have
a working knowledge of the great accomplishments made during his redemption.
Last week we dealt with three of such accomplishments. Today we shall look at
two other accomplishments of redemption. They are:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">To be blessed
under the law was conditional (Deut.28:1-2); such conditions were too hard to
meet. Jesus clearly stated that His mission was not to abolish the law but to
fulfill it. To fulfill means to meet its demands. Jesus has met all the demands
of the law on our behalf. Obeying the law no longer determines our right
relationship with God; but believing in what Jesus has accomplished via His
work of redemption. When Jesus fulfilled the law, He met all the demands of the
law unconditionally. We are no longer bound by the demands/responsibilities of
the law.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Peter said
the forefathers of the Jews could not bear the weight and the yoke the law
placed on them (Acts15:10-11). No wonder Jesus said we should come unto Him all
those struggling under the heavy weight of the Law and we shall find rest in
Him. He said His burden was light and His yoke was easy (Matt.11:28-30).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

LIVE FROM THE ALTAR-CHRIST END OF ALL MAN'S STRUGGLES

TOPIC: JESUS CHRIST: THE END OF ALL OF MAN’S STRUGGLES<br />
TEXT: JOHN 14:6; 1 TIM. 2:5-6;<br />
Jesus Christ is the end of all struggles man is going through. The woman with the issue of blood was plagued with an illness that could not be healed with man’s prescriptions, she suffered for so many years but when she met Jesus her struggles came to an end ( Mark5:25-34). No wonder He said " come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, a<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">nd I will give you rest." Matt.11:28-30. Many are already in Christ but are still running from pillar to post struggling and looking for solution to their problems. This is largely because many churchgoers do not know JESUS CHRIST. Some Christians only know Him as a punctuation sign in their prayers. In church today, we teach all kinds of things except teachings centred on Jesus Christ. The people's faith are on many mundane things ( sinking sand), rather than on Jesus Christ (the Solid Rock).</span></div>

Jesus Christ revealed Himself as the Alpha and Omega. The Lord Jesus Christ is both God and mediator between God and man. There is only one mediator between God and man; that is the man of Jesus Christ. Jesus was God who took on human flesh for the sake of man’s redemption (1 Tim.2:5-6). Jesus Christ though God Almighty emptied Himself of everything that made Him God in order to become a man (Phil. 2:6-8).<br />
It is through Jesus all of God’s ways and eternal purposes are made manifest or known. Outside of Jesus, God remains a mystery. Jesus Christ is the unbundling of the mystery of God. Jesus Christ is not God’s assistant, neither is He one of the Gods in heaven, Jesus Christ of Nazareth is God.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Jesus answered Philip, “whoever has seen me has seen the father”. The father is Jesus and Jesus is the father (John 14:8-9). God is seen in the person of Jesus.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT JESUS CHRIST (JOHN 1:1-5, 14)<br />
>The Word which is God Almighty Himself was made flesh<br />
>His name was not Jesus before He came into the world.<br />
In the pre-creation, he was not called Jesus, but “The Word”.<br />
>It was for the sake of man’s redemption He had to come to now have a name.<br />
The name was to carry the symbol of His assignment to the world.</div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">UNVEILING
THE NEW CREATION IN CHRIST JESUS.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The
unveiling of the believer is tied to the revealing if Christ.  The new creation believer is created in the
image and likeness of the resurrected Christ, i.e the last Adam. And it is from
this source he/she draws his being, nature or life (Eph. 4:24, 2Peter 1:2-4).
The greatest good we can do for a believer is to help him/her to know who
he/she has become in Christ. The faith that the new creation is required to
live by is activated by these knowledge and understanding (Philemon:6).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Paul’s
greatest prayer for the New Testament churches he founded was for them to have
revelation knowledge and spiritual understanding (Ephes. 1:17-21; Colo. 1:9-11).
This is because the things many Christians are struggling to get have already
been given to us in Christ (Eph. 1:3). We need knowledge to enjoy them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">THINGS TO KNOW<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<b><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">1.<span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">    
</span></span></b><b><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The new creation is blessed in the
heavenly realm with all spiritual blessings. <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The new creation has no past, so he cannot suffer any form of curse. So,
every enablement/empowerment he needs spiritually to succeed and become the
best has been given to him in Christ. The blessing of the new creation is not
subject to the law or based on what he does or does not do (Deut. 28:1-2 VS
Ephe.1:3). The blessing upon the new creation is superior or above any curse on
the earth. The new creation is blessed above all people. The faith of Christ is
what the new creation needs to convert the blessings in the spiritual realm
into physical reality. All that the new creation needs to make things happen is
to believe in Jesus Christ. John6:28-29; and to speak what the word says
2Corint.4:13. Whatever is too big for your mouth (to speak) will be too big for
your hand to handle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></b><b><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The new creation has the mind of
Christ (1Cor. 2:6-16)<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The believer by the virtue of the Spirit of God at work in his mental
facilities has unlimited mental powers and capabilities. The new creation is
able to gain access to secrets in God’s mind because God’s spirit indwelling us
is able to reveal God’s mind to us in every situation. The Spirit or the power
of Christ working within us is able to bring to pass our desires expressed in
words and conceived in our imaginations (Eph. 3:20). In Gen.11:1-9 we see how
powerful and unstoppable is the imaginative capacity of man even in his fallen
state. The City of Dubai is an Emirate (like a state) in the country of U.A.E;
but unredeemed minds engaging their imaginative ability thought up the idea and
are following through with it. How much more could the new creation believer
capable of doing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Since the New Creation has the mind of Christ, he is also able to
function under the powerful influence of the spirits of the Lord, wisdom,
knowledge, understanding, counsel etc which empowered JESUS mentally to operate
in superior mental prowess. Isaiah11:1-3. He was able to judge things beyond
the physical eyes and ears.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

this reality? Isaiah55:8-9.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 9.0pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Salvation is a movement from the
lower realm of life in the world into a higher realm of life in Christ.
Redemption and forgiveness of sin were obtained through the blood of Jesus
Christ. The life of Christ was offered as a ransom for our redemption. It was
an eternal redemption that flows to all generations of mankind (Mark 10:45).
The value and integrity of our redemption cannot be corrupted because of the
kind of price paid for it (1 Peter 1:18-19). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 9.0pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">We were not redeemed with corruptible
things like money (which loses value and purchasing power) but by the precious
blood of Jesus Christ – A lamb without blemish and without spot.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">We were chosen in
Christ before the world began, even before Adam was created. It was not after
Adam’s sin that God determined our redemption; it was before the foundation of
the world. Before there was Satan, sin and death, God already had the plan of
redemption in place. The plan of redemption was put in Jesus Christ. To operate
in the Higher or Superior life in Christ Jesus we must have a working knowledge
of what Jesus Christ has accomplished for us via the work of Redemption.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This forms the basis of our holiness and purity. They are attainable
when we are in Christ. Jesus’ coming to the earth was to execute the blue-print
of man’s redemption. No effort of man to be holy or maintain the highest level
of morality can meet God’s standard of holiness and righteousness. On the
cross, a divine exchange took place: Jesus took our sin and gave us His
righteousness (2 Cor.5:21). Receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of
righteousness and reign in life (Rom.5:17).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Eternal life is the ultimate gift to humanity in Christ
Jesus. It is the heart of Christianity. In Adam we all died, but now in Christ,
we have been made alive (1 Cor. 15:21:22). The Higher life in Christ is powered
by the highest level and quality of life ZOE. This life was implanted in every
born again believer at the instance of his accepting Jesus Christ as the Lord
of his life. His/her human life (psuche) was replaced with eternal life (Zoe)…
1John5:11-13. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

has taken away sin (John 1:29).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The scriptures give us understanding that sin is primarily a
nature that expresses itself in sinful acts. We can deduce from the above that
sin is not a behavioral problem, but a nature. The work of redemption deals
with the sin issue from its root by offering us an opportunity to have a change
of nature. It is therefore wrong to subject people to spiritual, mental and
physical drills to free them from sin or behavioral challenges in the name of
deliverance. Teach them Jesus Christ and the realities of His accomplishments
in our redemption, their minds will be transformed to operate in the Higher
life we have been translated into. When a believer attains the realm he begins
to see sinful tendencies and acts as bringing him/herself into lower things. It
is only dogs that return to their vomit.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
