Victorious Authority in CHRIST’s KINGDOM (4)
Our Victory is as An Overcomer over All Battles, Endure to the End of the Race, To Sit with JESUS.
- Revelation 3: 21
Our Confidence of Being Called & Delivered Out of Satan’s kingdom Into GOD’s Kingdom in CHRIST.
Colossians 1: 12 – 14 (Amp)
Giving thanks to the FATHER, Who has qualified and made us fit to share the portion which is the
inheritance of the saints (GOD's holy people) in the Light.
[The FATHER] has delivered and drawn us to Himself out of the control and the dominion of darkness
and has transferred us into the Kingdom of the SON of HIS Love, in Whom we have our redemption
through HIS Blood, [which means] the forgiveness of our sins.
Our Faith to be Strong in JESUS, as the HEAD, the KING of GOD’s Kingdom & HE is in Full Authority.
1 Corinthians 3: 23
And you are CHRIST's, and CHRIST is GOD's.
We are to have the Understanding that GOD’s Kingdom is Spiritual, yet we are Blessed in the Natural.
Romans 14: 17 (Amp)
[After all] the Kingdom of GOD is not a matter of [getting the] food and drink [one likes], but instead
it is Righteousness (that state which makes a person acceptable to GOD) and [heart] Peace and
Joy in the HOLY SPIRIT.
1 Corinthians 4: 20 (Amp)
For the Kingdom of GOD consists of and is based on not talk but Power (moral power and
excellence of soul).
In the World, many Serving ‘Idols’ of the Self Kingdom, We are to be Obedient & Loyal to our LORD.
Romans 16: 18 – 20 (Amp)
For such persons do not serve our LORD CHRIST but their own appetites and base desires, and by
ingratiating and flattering speech, they beguile the hearts of the unsuspecting and simpleminded [people].
For while your loyalty and obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, I would have
you well versed and wise as to what is good and innocent and guileless as to what is evil.
And the GOD of Peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.
The Grace of our LORD JESUS CHRIST (the Messiah) be with you.
Our Faith to be in JESUS Whose Authority & Power is Far much Greater than Satan’s He & his demonic angels will be put under Submission to us as GOD’s Kingdom People.
Romans 16: 24 – 27
The Grace of our LORD JESUS CHRIST be with you all. Amen.
Now to HIM Who is able to establish you according to my Gospel and the preaching of JESUS CHRIST,
according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now made manifest, and
by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the Everlasting
GOD, for obedience to the faith - to GOD, alone wise, be Glory through JESUS CHRIST forever. Amen.
~ JESUS Defeated the enemy, but HE is yet to Put under Full Submission - Obedience overcome him.
Hebrews 5: 8 – 9
Though HE was a Son, yet HE learned obedience by the things which HE suffered.
And having been perfected, HE became the Author of Eternal Salvation to all who obey HIM.
Our Lifestyle & Conduct ‘Set on’ the Truth, our lives ’Hidden in’ CHRIST so Renewed in GOD’s Power.
Colossians 3: 1 – 3 (Amp)
If then you have been raised with CHRIST [to a New Life, thus sharing HIS Resurrection from the dead],
aim at and seek the [rich, eternal treasures] that are above, where CHRIST is, seated at the
Right Hand of GOD. And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things),
not on the things that are on the earth.
For [as far as this world is concerned] you have died, and your [New, Real] Life is hidden with
CHRIST in GOD.
All in CHRIST to be Under Spiritual Authority of the Local Church, as their Spiritual Covering.
1 Peter 5: 5b – 6 (Amp)
Clothe (apron) yourselves, all of you, with humility [as the garb of a servant, so that its covering
cannot possibly be stripped from you, with freedom from pride and arrogance] toward one another.
For GOD sets Himself against the proud (the insolent, the overbearing, the disdainful,
the presumptuous, the boastful) – [and HE opposes, frustrates, and defeats them], but
gives Grace (favor, blessing) to the humble. Therefore humble yourselves [demote, lower yourselves
in your own estimation] under the Mighty Hand of GOD, that in due time HE may exalt you.
Our Covering is Submission & Humility in Servanthood Clothing, as Draws Abundant Divine Grace.
1 Peter 5: 7 – 8 (Amp)
Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all]
on HIM, for HE cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.
Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours,
the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour.
To Know our Spiritual Position in CHRIST – to Know who our enemy is, our faith to Resist him.
- 1 Peter 5: 9
Under CHRIST’s Authority, HE Knows How to Deliver us from Trials & Temptation, Stay under HIM.
2 Peter 2: 9 – 10a
Then the LORD knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust
under punishment for the Day of Judgment, and especially those who walk according to the flesh
in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed.
We are Not to Be Presumptuous & Self-Willed, What are we ‘To Know’ to Stay in Kingdom Boundary.
2 Peter 3: 17 – 18
You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own
steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked; but grow in the Grace and knowledge
of our LORD and Savior JESUS CHRIST. To HIM be the Glory both now and forever. Amen.
To Keep in the Kingdom Boundary of Righteousness by Living in the Truth – A Daily Walk Boundary.
3 John 1: 2 – 4 (Amp)
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well, even as [I know]
your soul keeps well and prospers.
In fact, I greatly rejoiced when [some of] the brethren from time to time arrived and spoke [so highly]
of the sincerity and fidelity of your life, as indeed you do live in the Truth [the whole Gospel presents].
I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my [spiritual] children are living their lives in the Truth.
Walking in CHRIST’s Truth - Power of Grace works, Guard us Being Led into Error - Enemy No Right.
1 John 5: 18 (Amp)
We know [absolutely] that anyone born of GOD does not [deliberately and knowingly] practice
committing sin, but the ONE Who was begotten of GOD carefully watches over and protects him
[CHRIST's Divine Presence within him preserves him against the evil], and the wicked one does
not lay hold (get a grip) on him or touch [him].
GOD’s Kingdom Boundary is Set for Protection of Committing Spiritual Adultery with the World.
James 4: 4 – 5 (Amp)
You [are like] unfaithful wives [having illicit love affairs with the world and breaking your marriage vow
to GOD] ! Do you not know that being the world's friend is being GOD's enemy ? So whoever chooses
to be a friend of the world takes his stand as an enemy of GOD.
Or do you suppose that the Scripture is speaking to no purpose that says, The SPIRIT Whom HE has
caused to dwell in us yearns over us and HE yearns for the SPIRIT [to be welcome] with a jealous love ?
~ The SPIRIT of GOD Dwelling within SPIRIT-Birthed Children has Protective Jealous Love for them.
Backlash Exposures that Allow the Enemy to Penetrate thru Spiritual Covering of GOD’s Kingdom :
1. Pride and ‘Haughty Spirit’ Diminishes Grace & Delegated Authority to Resist the Enemy’s Attack.
Proverbs 16: 18
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
James 4: 6 – 8 (Amp)
But HE gives us more and more Grace (Power of the HOLY SPIRIT, to meet this evil tendency and all
others fully). That is why HE says, GOD sets HIMSelf against the proud and haughty, but gives Grace
[continually] to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it).
So be subject to GOD. Resist the devil [stand firm against him], and he will flee from you.
Come close to GOD and HE will come close to you. [Recognize that you are] sinners, get your
soiled hands clean; [realize that you have been disloyal] wavering individuals with divided interests,
and purify your hearts [of your spiritual adultery].
2. Disobedience to GOD’s Truth – the Living Walking Instructions of Life vs Destruction by Evil One.
When we Cross-over to GOD’s Kingdom of Light & Truth of HIS Righteousness – on ‘Holy Ground’.
As Joshua was Leading the Next Generation of ‘Uncircumcised males’ into GOD’s Promise Land.
~ Reference Joshua 5: 1 – 12.
~ To Enter into Kingdom is as Entering into Promise Land - Spiritual Circumcision to face Enemy.
Joshua 5: 13 – 15
And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold,
a MAN stood opposite him with HIS Sword drawn in HIS Hand. And Joshua went to HIM and said to HIM, “
Are You for us or for our adversaries? "
So HE said, "No, but as Commander of the Army of the LORD I have now come." And Joshua fell
on his face to the earth and worshiped, and said to HIM, "What does my LORD say to HIS servant?"
Then the Commander of the LORD's army said to Joshua, "Take your sandal off your foot, for
the place where you stand is Holy." And Joshua did so.
~ The Circumcision took place at GILGAL, where then was the Entry into HOLY Ground – HOLINESS.
GILGAL - the Place where the 1st King of Israel was Appointed & Anointed to Lead by Obedience.
~ Reference 1 Samuel 10.
1 Samuel 10: 8 – 9
“You shall go down before me to Gilgal; and surely I will come down to you to offer burnt offerings and make
sacrifices of peace offerings. Seven days you shall wait, till I come to you and show you what you should
do."
So it was, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, that GOD gave him another heart; and all those
signs came to pass that day.
1 Samuel 13: 5 – 13 (NLT)
The Philistines mustered a mighty army of 3,000 chariots, 6,000 charioteers, and as many warriors as
the grains of sand on the seashore ! They camped at Micmash east of Beth-aven.
The men of Israel saw what a tight spot they were in; and because they were hard pressed by the enemy,
they tried to hide in caves, thickets, rocks, holes, and cisterns.
Some of them crossed the Jordan River and escaped into the land of Gad and Gilead.
Meanwhile, Saul stayed at Gilgal, and his men were trembling with fear.
Saul waited there seven days for Samuel, as Samuel had instructed him earlier, but Samuel still didn't come.
Saul realized that his troops were rapidly slipping away.
So he demanded, "Bring me the burnt offering and the peace offerings !"
And Saul sacrificed the burnt offering himself.
Just as Saul was finishing with the burnt offering, Samuel arrived. Saul went out to meet and welcome him,
but Samuel said, "What is this you have done?" Saul replied, "I saw my men scattering from me, and you
didn't arrive when you said you would, and the Philistines are at Micmash ready for battle.
So I said, 'The Philistines are ready to march against us at Gilgal, and I haven't even asked for the LORD's
help! ' So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering myself before you came."
"How foolish!" Samuel exclaimed. "You have not kept the command the LORD your GOD gave you.
Had you kept it, the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel forever.”
1 Samuel 15: 17 – 23 (NLT)
And Samuel told him, "Although you may think little of yourself, are you not the leader of the tribes of Israel?
The LORD has anointed you king of Israel. And the LORD sent you on a mission and told you,
'Go and completely destroy the sinners, the Amalekites, until they are all dead.'
Why haven't you obeyed the LORD? Why did you rush for the plunder and do what was evil in the
LORD's Sight? "
"But I did obey the LORD," Saul insisted. "I carried out the mission HE gave me. I brought back King Agag,
but I destroyed everyone else. Then my troops brought in the best of the sheep, goats, cattle, and plunder
to sacrifice to the LORD your GOD in Gilgal."
But Samuel replied, "What is more pleasing to the LORD: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your
obedience to HIS Voice? Listen ! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering
the fat of rams.
Rebellion is as sinful as witchcraft, and stubbornness as bad as worshiping idols. So because you
have rejected the Command of the LORD, HE has rejected you as king."
~ Disobedience, Stubbornness, Self-Willed, Presumptuous, Rebellion are All Offences to our GOD.
1 Samuel 28: 16 – 18 (NLT)
But Samuel replied, "Why ask me, since the LORD has left you and has become your enemy ? The LORD
has done just as HE said HE would. HE has torn the kingdom from you and given it to your rival, David. The
LORD has done this to you today because you refused to carry out his fierce anger against the Amalekites.”
~ There are Consequences for Disobedience in our Lives to GOD’s Truth & HIS Leading us in Truth.
The Disobedience of King Saul, Opened the Door for the Enemy to Defeat & Destroy him & his army.
~ Reference 1 Samuel 30
Colossians 1: 27
To them GOD willed to make known what are the Riches of the Glory of this mystery among the Gentiles:
which is CHRIST in you, the Hope of Glory.
We are in CHRIST, Hidden in CHRIST’ Kingdom in HIS Glory, so HIS Authority & Power is over us.
