READ YOUR RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. HE BROUGHT US OUT, TO HIMSELF - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 28TH, 2016.
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. Hallelujah!
CONFESSION:
I 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.
