The Spirit of Ressurection

THE SPIRIT OF RESURRECTION
Monday, 11th January, 2016

“But if the Spirit of him that raised Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he..shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his spirit that dwells in you” (Romans 8:11)

This is for those who have “wasted years”. To those that feel they have lost so much. You find it difficult to start again. Your life right now feels like shambles. Your mates are far ahead of you. Perhaps you are grouping in the darkness of shame and disgrace…

Be strong dear, whatever it might have been, there is an ability of the Spirit called the Spirit of resurrection. The Spirit of resurrection is often mistaken to be just the spirit of restoration, but it’s far more than that; it is a combination of God’s creative power with His restoration ability.

Now consider Jesus while he was on earth, he was not Lord, he was Emmanuel. Before his death he did not have the name above all names, the devil had partial dominion over the earth due to the authority he stole from Adam.

In revelation however, we see Jesus introducing himself, I am he who was, who is and is to come and I (now) hold the keys of hell and death.  (Revelation 1:18). So he who once lived on earth experienced transformation by the spirit of resurrection and was exalted to heaven.

Now this is how it works. When the Spirit of resurrection steps into your situation it does not merely restore you to your former state but it creates a by far greater reality so that your later is greater than your former.

God is love. He is not just able to restore your lost years but also to transform you into a better person, with a brighter future.

SELAH: No matter how bad it has been, the spirit of resurrection is more potent.
