THE TRUE INDEPENDENCE AND HOW TO BE TRULY FREE

1st OCTOBER 2020

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” – John 8:36

Today in Nigeria, the people celebrate the independence of that country from the colonial masters, Britain. Happy celebration and Happy Holiday Nigerians! This message is not for Nigerians alone, but a message to the whole world!  I have always said to you that true independence is FREEDOM FROM DISEASE, IGNORANCE, AND POVERTY. Everyone ought to be truly free and independent from the shackles of ignorance and all the things standing between us and the manifestation of the plan and purpose of God for us. The major obstacle in our life is ignorance.  We do not seem to have any grip of the knowledge of the power that truly sets us free. The knowledge that truly set us free is the knowledge of Jesus, His saving grace and His divine nature. As children of God, we ought to be victorious in adverse situations, such as poverty, sickness and all manner of attacks. Beloved, your victory lies within the divine nature of God – THE WORD OF GOD! The good news remains that the knowledge of Jesus Christ and His redeeming power of Grace has set us free already from all earthly perplexities and suffering. But rather than let this power work for us, we have instead sold our birthright to the devil who continues to hold us hostage. There is absolutely no difference between the one who is held hostage by the devil and a nation still being held down by the colonial masters! Both of them are unable to think outside the box for they behave more like robots who are constantly manipulated by their manufacturers in order to give the desired result.  this is the time to gain true independence from the unseen power of evil. Many did NOT follow Jesus during His time because they had problems with His claims of being the SON OF GOD, as well as His DIVERGENT TEACHINGS, which were unique and different from the trend at that time. Even though the message of salvation by Jesus was very clear, the people were not ready to embrace the victory of the cross. The people continue to plunge deeper and deeper into the nets and traps of the devil and his Agents.  TO BE FREE FROM THE DEVIL IS TO EMBRACE JESUS AND HIS COMMANDS. The power that continues to put the devil under check is the Spirit of Christ that dwells in us and only those who obey Jesus’ commandments will have access to this power. That power is the power of God – the eternal word of God that manifested Jesus Christ. Jesus was manifested by God so as to destroy every evil work of the devil. Therefore, God has already made a way for each and every one of us to experience His faithfulness and power through obedience.  In order to tap into this power, we need to experience the baptism of the Holy Spirit such as is usually experienced by all true disciples of the master. Thereafter, we may experience a shift to a new realm of understanding and power. Remember, the Holy Spirit gives the anointing that breaks every yoke; Gives us the power to take authority in prayers; Gives us the power to hold onto God by faith; The power to recognize His grace upon our lives, the power to be free from ignorance and the evil machinations of men.  Also, note that the divine nature of Jesus Christ is the eternal word of god which is already in you – “… Christ in you is the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:26-27). therefore, when we follow the teachings of the master and endeavour to obey his commands, we are made to partake of his very nature which lies deep in our souls! In furtherance of that fact, the scripture says we have been filled with the Christ spirit. It is, therefore, true that the Christ essence of God is in us, empowering us to gain victory over hatred, deceit, falsehood, poverty, disease, and ignorance. All that is expected from us is a deliberate attitude of forsaking sin, following Jesus and becoming alive to his saving grace and power (Colossians 2:9-10). The word of God is telling us today to embrace Jesus in His teachings and commandments. This will align us with the greatest power of God which is in us. This is the power that truly set us free from disease, ignorance and poverty!

ONCE AGAIN, HAPPY INDEPENDENCE NIGERIA!!!

PRAYER

Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for the revelation of your word today. Father, I ask for your Grace to partake of the divine nature of Christ – my Lord and saviour. I am quickened by the Holy Spirit with the power to overcome and to create every reality in my life. AMEN.
