RHAPSODY OF REALITIES **HE BROUGHT US OUT, TO HIMSELF** Sunday 28th February: Pastor Chris
Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers
of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from
the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his
dear Son (Colossians 1:12-13).
The word translated “delivered”
above is the Greek “rhuomai,” which means to pluck and bring to
yourself. You know, you can pluck something and let it fall; or place it
somewhere. However, it’s different when you pluck it and take it to
yourself. It means to rush something out of where it is, and pull it to
yourself. That’s what God did with us. He didn’t just “pluck” us out of
the domain of darkness, He brought us out to Himself! He rushed you out
of the power, the dominion, the control, the jurisdiction, the authority
of darkness, and pulled you to Himself; to absolute safety.
You’ve been delivered from the control of darkness. Darkness represents
evil, evil powers and all their works. It represents all that’s
destructive, everything that makes a lie, that works against the
purposes of God, that’s negative to you, including Satan’s dominion.
You’ve been plucked out of all such influences, and brought unto God.
You’re not under Satan’s jurisdiction; he has no authority over you; he
can’t decide what happens to you. You don’t function under his
jurisdiction, because you’ve been plucked out of his domain. Is it
sickness that’s attacking your body? Is fear trying to take a hold of
you? Is it fear of failure, fear of darkness, fear of the future, or any
other kind of fear? These all belong to the domain of darkness, and
you’ve been delivered from them all! Don’t be afraid of financial
failure; fear isn’t allowed in the kingdom of Christ where you belong;
it’s out-lawed.
It doesn’t matter what you’re going through, in
the mind of God, you were plucked out of it. He’s already done it. You
don’t need deliverance from the devil; no! Notice the tenses; it says,
“Who hath delivered us from the dominion of darkness and hath translated
us....” The word “translated” means “transferred”; He has transferred
us; we’re not in the process, we’re not on our way to glory land; no. We
were born there. Halleluiah!
CONFESSIONI am not under Satan’s
jurisdiction; he has no authority over me, and cannot decide what
happens to me. I dwell in the Kingdom of God’s “love Son”; the realm of
health, wealth, prosperity, and life eternal, soaring on the wings of
the Spirit, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY:Isaiah 33:24 And
the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein
shall be forgiven their iniquity.
Hebrews 12:22-24 But ye are
come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly
Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 To the general
assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and
to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24
And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of
sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
