John 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. 33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.
Yes, Jesus is the rising tide that lifts all boats, but the question we should all ask ourselves is, Is my boat sailing on the same ocean as he is? Because if not, you cannot be raised together with him. Only those who are on board with him can fly the same way he is. We are meant to be inside of him; that is what redemption is all about.
Romans 6:3 (Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life). To be baptized into Christ and begin to walk in his way; do what he does and be a replica of him because as he is so we are in this world (1 John 4:17). We are seated in heavenly place inside of Christ, so if he is not seated we cannot sit; we are in him so that he can be wherever we are at all time; so any one that touches us touches him; whatever that cannot humiliate him will not be able to reach us.
Ephesians 2:6 (And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus):
Ephesians 1:20 (Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come):
That is the mystery of the new birth. Understanding this simple logic makes us untouchable, unmovable, and more than conquerors. We are above only entities, and what happens to those who are on the floor cannot happen to us because our attitude towards God is what determines our altitude in life. We cannot claim or proclaim what we don't know, and that is why we need to get ourselves familiar with the terms and conditions of our relationship with Jesus. Obedience to the terms and conditions of your contract with Jesus is what will bring about the reality of redemption´s benefits. But how many believers even understand the terms and conditions of their relationship with Jesus? To gain a deeper understanding of our relationship with Jesus, we need to live a studious life by studying the Word privately and also being consistent in our church attendance. There are priests ordained by God to put us through and to interpret the terms and conditions of this relationship to us. Jeremiah 3:15 (And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding).
The above only position we are talking about is only available to those who are willing and committed to obey his commandments. We need to do what Christ does to secure our space inside of Him. The power to raise others up like Christ has been given to us, and all we need to do is activate it by reaching out to the lost souls. The commandment of soul winning is as important as the ten commandments because as he is, so are we in this world. Friends, are you sailing along the same ocean with Jesus, or do you want to come over to the coast where he is? In case you are not there yet, he wants you to come over by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus' name.
Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins and accept You as my Lord and Saviour. I believe you died for me to make me a new man/woman. Forgive me all my sins, wash me with your blood, and give me a new heart. Thank you, Lord, for saving my soul. Now I believe that I am born again. And I am a child of God. Amen!
NENE ISAH,
