REIGNING IN LIFE THROUGH CHRIST

Romans 5:17 (NKJV, NLT)

…if by…one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through …Jesus Christ. *For the sin of …Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and his gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ.

One of the results of Adam’s sin is that man was displaced from his position of authority and dominion. All the things man was supposed to be having authority and dominion over began to have authority and dominion over man. One of such things was sin. The nature of man was corrupted and man’s life was inferior and unable to overcome sin as well as many other evils; but thank God that Jesus came to die to save and redeem man!

When Jesus died on the Cross for man, He brought about a change in the nature of man and an elevation of man to his rightful place of dominion and authority. Right now, we are seated together in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus, (Eph.2:6) and this position is far above the rank of all principalities and power, (Eph.1:20-21). Right now, we can reign together with Christ because we have the life of Christ. Right now, we have authority and dominion over everything Christ has authority and dominion over. Jesus gave us a new and superior life which has power and dominion over sin, over sickness, over the devil and over all evil. We are no more slaves; we are kings!

The more you’re conscious of the grace of God and your gift of righteousness in Christ, the more you will reign in life.

Faith Declaration:
I have the superior life of Christ in me. God has raised me to Christ’s realm of authority and dominion
