Experiencing The Resurrected Life

Experiencing The Resurrected Life

By Jesse Morrison –9th April 2023 ––Easter Resurrection Sunday

INTRODUCTION

If we celebrate the Resurrection of our lord Jesus Christ only once a year, then we’re missing out!

We can live and walk in resurrection power every day.

Jesus’ death and resurrection has everything to do with our life.

Hebrews 8:6 NLT

But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood, for he is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises.

The death of Jesus should be celebrated because he gave us a new covenant, a better covenant with better promises, and most Christians don't even know it.

Many are still living under the old covenant

So, his death doesn't mean anything if you continue to operate by the old agreement

Jesus has provided for us an abundant life now and for eternity.

We are meat to live and operate in resurrection power every day!

What Adam gave over to Satan in the Garden of Eden by disobedience, was taken back by one perfect Man’s obedience.

God reclaimed THE BLESSING that was stolen in the garden and got His family back. He gave us back the dominion and authority that rightfully belong to us as His children.

Colossians 2:13-15 NKJV

And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, [14] having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. [15] Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.

Jesus sealed Satan’s defeat—it’s done.

Satan has no power over you unless you give him the power. He has no authority—unless you give it to him.

Jesus did the final work, the finished work to seal his defeat.

Now we need to live in that finished work—the work of resurrection power!

Most Christians stop at the cross and don’t take full advantage of all that Jesus provided. But you can!

Start today with these four ways to live in resurrection power every day.

1. Believe It

Being born again won’t cause resurrection power to automatically operate in your life— you have to choose to believe it.

Believing is what activates the power in your life.

You activated resurrection power when you allowed Jesus Christ to come into your life as your Lord and Savior. You have to activate it by faith—by believing.

To access all the benefits—healing, abundance, peace, joy and every good thing—you must put that same belief—faith—into action to receive full use of resurrection power in your life. Every yoke is destroyed under resurrection power and every part of THE BLESSING is released. Believe it!

It starts from your heart. ( Healing, deliverance etc)

Romans 10:9-10 NKJV

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. [10] For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Salvation starts with the heart.

·God heals you through your spirit.

2. Speak It

When you believe something, you keep speaking about it all the time.

You don’t talk about it once in a while. You speak about it all the time. Because that is what you believe and what know.

To appropriate

To appropriate means to take possession of.

If Jesus shed His blood for you to have something, you need to take it.

The blood of Jesus and the power that’s invested in it won’t work for you unless you personally appropriate it and take possession of it for yourself.

When you believe that resurrection power is residing in you, you begin to activate it through your words. You speak faith-filled words to release THE BLESSING.

The power of God is in faith-filled words. If the Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he will make alive your mortal flesh (Romans 8:11).

Notice, it doesn’t say He will make alive your glorifiedflesh, but your mortal flesh. That’s resurrection power coming out of God from His Word, into your spirit, out your mouth, and quickening your flesh with resurrection power.

Every time you speak the Name of Jesus or plead the blood of Jesus over a situation, Satan is reminded of his defeat.

3. Act on It

Make no mistake—Satan’s defeat was sealed by the Resurrection, but we have to enforce it, or act on it.

The very same power that raised Jesus from the dead is now living in you (Romans 8:11)!s

God raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Satan is defeated. When he tries to bring the curse back into your life—he’s trespassing. You have the authority to make him leave. Now act on it!

How?

Apply the Name of Jesus, the blood of Jesus, God’s power to every situation in your life.

When sickness tries to come—apply the blood of Jesus—resurrection power. If lack tries to take up residence in your life—apply the blood—declare the curse is over in your life and the enemy is defeated, and claim the triumph Jesus won for you on the cross.

Don’t ever accept defeat in your life—Jesus paid too high a price for you to accept anything less than total and complete VICTORY.

Learn from Gloria Copeland and Billye Brim how The Glory of God is Resurrection Power!

There is enough power in it to meet every single one of your needs.

Next, you have to believe and have faith in all that God’s Word says about the blood of Jesus.

Have faith that:

· You’re healed because of the blood.

· You’re delivered because of the blood.

· Your needs are met because of the blood.

· You have authority over the devil, over pestilence, and over the coronavirus, because of the blood.
