REVELATION CHANGES YOU

 Stop Confessing Defeat & Renew Your Mind NOW

  Beloved, the greatest tragedy in the church today is not that men have rejected Christ, but that multitudes have received HIM and yet have never known what really took place when they were born again. They have eternal life in their spirits, but they are living as though redemption were still a hope instead of a finished reality. 

 They have been made new creations in Christ Jesus. 

 And yet they still think, speak, and act as though they were the old men whom God crucified with Christ. 

 This ignorance has robbed the church of its power, its authority, and its joy. 

The believer's failure is not moral weakness. It is mental darkness. 

His spirit has been recreated, but his mind has never been renewed. He has been born from above, but he still judges himself by the testimony of his senses. 

 He sees weakness. He feels failure. He hears defeat. And he accepts these things as facts, not knowing that the Word of God has declared another reality. Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. The old things are passed away. Behold, they are become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17. 

   God did not say they are passing away. He said they have passed away. Yet the unrenewed believer still talks as though the old things were alive and ruling him. When the church lost sight of revelation-knowledge, it substituted effort for faith and discipline for identity. 

 Men began trying to be what God had already made them. They prayed for righteousness when God had already declared them righteous. 

  They begged for power when the Holy Spirit already dwelt in them. They asked God to do something about sin and weakness, not knowing that God had settled the sin problem and recreated the human spirit in Christ. 

  The tragedy is that they are trying to obtain by prayer what belongs to them by birth. The scripture tells us plainly that my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Hosea 4:6.  It does not say they are destroyed for lack of sincerity or lack of prayer or lack of consecration. 

  They are destroyed because they do not know. Knowledge here is not sense-knowledge. It is revelation-knowledge. 

   It is the knowledge of what God has done in Christ. The believer who does not know his place in Christ lives under condemnation, fear, and weakness. Not because God wills it, but because he has never seen what redemption has accomplished. Many believers honestly suppose that humility consists in confessing weakness and unworthiness. 

 They say, "I am only a poor sinner saved by grace." Not knowing that such a confession denies the very purpose of redemption. 

 God never calls the believer a sinner. He calls believer a new creation. He calls believer righteous. He calls believer His child. 

 For ye received not the spirit of bondage again unto fear. But ye received the spirit of adoption whereby we cry, "'Abba, Father." Romans 8:15. 

 Yet the unrenewed believer still approaches God as a servant trembling before a master instead of as a son standing in the presence of his Father. 

 This divided life, redeemed in spirit, defeated in experience, is the fruit of ignorance. The believer has life, but he does not know he has it. He has authority, but he does not dare to exercise it. He has been made complete in Christ, but he still seeks completeness in feelings, experiences, and human approval. Apostle Paul declared, "Ye are complete in HIM." Colossians 2:10. 

Not someday, not after growth, but now. 

 Yet many believers live their entire lives trying to become what God says they already are. The mind of the believer has been trained for years by the five senses. 

 It has learned to reason from appearances. It says, "l am sick because I feel pain. I am weak because I fail. I am defeated because circumstances oppose me. But the Word of God reasons from redemption." It says, "By His stripes you were healed." 1 Peter 2:24.  It says, "Greater is HE that is in you than he that is in the world." 1 John 4:4. It says, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:1. Until the believer learns to accept the word as the final authority, he will remain a spiritual child tossed about by every sense testimony. God never intended the Christian life to be a struggle for victory. 

Victory was obtained in Christ.
