REIGNING IN LIFE 2: ROYAL AUTHORITY RESTORED
For if because of one man’s trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [God’s] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). (Romans 5:17 Amp)
So great a joy that the price for our redemption from the dominion of Sin and death has been paid, nay, paid for in full on the cross. Jesus descended to hell after His death on the cross to take the keys of hell and death so that henceforth the powers of hell and death would be render inoperative over the people of God.
He came to His own and His own received Him not but as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become Sons of God even to those who believe in His name. (John 1:12). Believing in the finished works of Jesus at Calvary is the primary requirement to entering into the reality of the provisions made available by the act. Salvation from sin and death isn't achieved by making a list of sins and confessing them but it is achieved by first believing in your heart that Jesus died for your sins and rose on the third day and then making a bold confession with your mouth of same. (Romans 10:9-10) However, you cannot come to this point without a remorse and repentance produce by the conviction of the Spirit within you.
By the death of Jesus on the cross, our sin was poured into Jesus so that His righteousness can be poured into us so that those who believe in Him would become the righteousness of God in Christ (1Cor 5:21). Everyone who believes in Him receive the same eternal life and gift of righteousness. The gift of righteousness is the same for every believer. You just need to believe that you are the very righteousness of God by your union with Christ. By this privilege, you have an unhindered access into the holiest of all by the blood of Jesus shed in the cross of Calvary.
However, while the gift of righteousness is the same for every believer, the dimension of Grace enjoyed by each person is different. One can increase in grace but you cannot increase in righteousness. You can grow in the knowledge of His righteousness. Grace can multiply on individuals. The Grace of God through Christ is boundless and abundant. It is the knowledge of His righteousness and grace that multiplies Grace upon the believer.
Operating in the consciousness of this righteousness and appropriating the grace of God by your knowledge of the finished works is the key to dominion. Dominion is achieved by engaging the privileges of the righteousness of God in Christ to receive Grace in increasing measure. You reign in life to the level of Grace you have received from heaven and to the level to which you can engage grace by faith.
Faith is the key to dominion. Walking by sight in this world is walking under satanic dominion, walking by faith, in the Spirit and by the revelation of His Word is the key to dominion on the earth. Never stop taking time to enjoy His presence to receive His grace and to increase in the knowledge of God for Dominion on the earth. The power and grace for Dominion is received in the place of communion and the more consistent your communion is, the more consistent your dominion will be. To enjoy dominion on the earth, delight yourself in the Lord, spend time always and consistently in His presence and as His word gain ascendancy over your life in your life, you will also gain ascendancy over every opposing forces of life to enjoy your dominion in reality.
Arise, Shine for thy light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you!!!
