The Power of the Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ

The Power of the Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ - Kwabena Opare

The death and resurrection of CHRIST JESUS are events that totally changed the destiny of humanity. All who believe and confess the Lordship of JESUS CHRIST, HIS death and resurrection, are made righteous and obtain salvation.

When JESUS was crucified, killed and buried, the sinful nature together with the power of sin which was at work in the lives of all who believe in HIM were also crucified, killed and buried.

When JESUS CHRIST was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the FATHER, all who believe in HIM were also raised from the dead with a brand new personality and made to live new lives (a life free from sin).

The death and resurrection of CHRIST JESUS has made the believer, by CHRIST JESUS, free from sin. No longer a slave to sin as a result of HIS death which caused the power of sin to be broken, being made alive to live a brand new life unto the glory of GOD according to the resurrection of CHRIST JESUS.

In conclusion we read Romans 6 vrs 11 - 13:

"So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus. Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God." (NLT)

GOD bless you.

How to Know with Certainty the Plans God Has for You

All around the prophet Jeremiah, the whole world seemed to be falling apart. His home, his nation, his people—everything continued to slip away. But right in the midst of this dark time, God gave a promise that still fills us with hope today: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11) Perhaps you have come face to face with the sorrow that Jeremiah felt. Perhaps you, too, know what it’s like to see everything fall apart all around you. You know the pain, the uncertainty. But do you know the promise? God gave this pledge to the people of Israel who lived in exile, but it’s no less true to any of us who follow Jesus. He does have a plan and purpose for us that—while not always easy—is assuredly for our good and His glory (Romans 8). So, how can we know this plan He has for us? And how can we walk confidently in it? Listen Up Before God gave this famous promise, He warned the p...

Love as Strong as Death - Karabo Moloisi

Song of Solomon 8:6 says 'Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame' Think about this for a moment... You know, when its time for a person to die, there is nothing that person can do to escape it. There is no opinion that death asks from him or her. No negotiations at all. Death has no respect for anyone's dignity or whatever status or position a person holds. Now, the bible says "... Love is as Strong as Death ..." Same non-negotiable force death comes with. That's how strong this 'Love' is. Once He gets a hold of you, He won't let go. The Unconditional Never Ending Love of God #The_Unconditional_Never_Ending_Love_of_God Also read; Deuteronomy 4:24 24 For the Lord thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God. Isaiah 49:16 16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are...

The Wrong Way to Fast- Proph. Joshua Dsane

Fasting is not merely about seeking God daily and delighting to know His way that makes it profitable (vrs 2) One wrong way to fast is to find pleasure and exact all your labours (v 3). Fasting is not the time to do the things you love and get involved in so many activities. It's a time with the Lord. In some parts of the Bible, fasting is called mourning. Another wrong way to fast is for strife and debate and to smite (v 4). Fasting must kill the flesh and not empower it. It's not the time to quarrel, fight and argue. Cardinal scripture : Isaiah 58:1-14 all sentences are paraphrased from this verse #Doing the usual things and expecting results from fasting is impossible. #Don't just take delight in approaching God, allow God to work on you
