TOPIC: YOU ARE COMPLETE IN HIM
“For in Him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him, which is the head of all principality and power.’’ Colossians 2:9-10 KJV
Beloved, God has no abandoned projects. Therefore, there will be no abandoned issues in your life. He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Christ. While it is true that the devil wants you put down, humiliated, frustrated, and discouraged, nevertheless, I have good news for you.
When Jesus paid the price for you on the cross through His death, burial, and resurrection, He changed your status. When He came to the earth, He paid the supreme price so that your status of slavery, failure and disappointment, sin, and bondage may be changed.
That is the reason why the devil has no right to hold you bound or determine how far you can go in life. Why? You are complete in Him who is the head of all principality and power, and that includes the devil.
The Word of God also declares that you are seated with Christ Jesus in the heavenly places, far above all principalities and powers. For as long as Jesus Christ our Lord has paid the supreme price once and for all time, you can no longer be held bound. If nothing could hold Him bound, then nothing can hold you bound also.
You are complete in Him. Settle that in your heart. There is no record that Jesus was ever a failure, so you cannot fail. He was never disgraced or embarrassed. If Jesus is free, then you are free also. Enough of sneaking around.
Take courage and step out. God has put you in charge. It is a clear fact that Jesus was a threat to the devil in His days on earth. He did not lose sleep because of what the devil was doing, so why should you lose sleep?
You have a divine mandate to succeed because you were made in God’s image and His gene is flowing through you. That means you are not a failure, and you were not called for disappointment or frustration.
