Alvin Ekwang, The Apostle Of Graces

2 Corinthians 4:13 KJV We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; Catch the Spirit of Faith Believing and Faith are different Eliminating Doubt Results of Believing and Faith Heart Speech and Mouth Speech

Genesis 24:45 KJV And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water: and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee. Mark 11:23 ISV I tell all of you with certainty, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ if he doesn’t doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Luke 6:45 ISV A good person produces good from the good treasure of his heart, and an evil person produces evil from an evil treasure, because the mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.”

Learn how to employ the God-Life that Christ gave you to positively affect every area of your life let alone the life of others around you.

Where you see correctly and live to see the good that you saw. Grace is that power and means.

In the year 2021, using what the Lord has given us, we will OCCUPY TILL JESUS COMES and He shall give us authority over nations as OVERCOMERS...

ACCESSING THE CREATIVE SUBSTANCE

Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

We have to be aware of the invisible substance which gives birth to all that we see or want to see. By this creative substance, we can get all that we want to have even if we don't have some physical factors of production. This creative substance also causes the seemingly lesser things that we have to make us have much better results. King David had access to this atmosphere that is why he transformed the distressed, indebted and discontented/bitter people into a wealthy and productive commonwealth.

Reckoning The Effects of The Cross with respect to THE GOOD SHEPHERD.

You will get to know what we mean by Sheep, Hireling and Shepherd.

You are a Shepherd that gives all for the wellbeing of the SHEEP or BUSINESS, TALENTS, GIFTS, FAMILY, MINISTRY, GOVERNANCE, EDUCATIVE KNOWLEDGE, MEDIA, SERVICE or CULTURE. God the Father has trust in you as the Good Shepherd, you also know and trust God concerning you in this regard. As a Good Shepherd, you better the life of the House of Israel (All what you currently have-little or much) and Like Jesus, you are assured that your sacrifice on the Cross will bring in much more (the Gentiles) to your fold. A Good Shepherd takes good care of Israel with all his life knowing that Gentiles will come in too. He/She knows that his Sheep (what you currently do) know him/her very well by voice and the Shepherd also knows the Sheep by name even if they are in another man's fold even as the Gentiles never knew the Lord Jesus Christ before.

Are you going to be that Good Shepherd?

Romans 6:11-12 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

The other aspect of Reckoning The Effects of The Cross is Reigning. On the Cross, you died to good and bad things that you may attain and correctly rule over them. Having known the workings of the Cross, we are meant to Reign as Kings and Lords over things (good or bad) that the Cross has purchased for us.

Reign from the throne of Christ and do not let defeated and powerless beings and things to scheme you out of what is rightly yours. Besides focusing on what the cross gave you look forward to what is around Christ Jesus in the heavens above. Reign over subjects that willingly submit to you as well as those who need a rod of iron.

Endeavor not to enter a "fist fight" with wayward subjects but Let your Father make them your footstool. King David had fist fights in the early part of life and when he sat on the throne, other people took on that role; Jesus used to cast devils in some way but he sits on the throne and other entities take care of that now. Your mind is key in this Reigning, for by it we bring every thought to the obedience of Christ.

Part 2 Reckoning The Effects of The Cross

Why should one have to focus? What did we die to? What you have to know (by experience as well) that Jesus Christ and you did on the Cross? What is Reckoning? What is sin? How to relive the life of the Cross?

What happened to Jesus Christ and what he did to every negative and positive thing also happened to all who are of the faith of Christ Jesus. Jesus died to sin and death once and these negative things no longer have any Dominion on him.

We are to likewise Reckon or account/see/think Jesus' victory as ours too. Jesus experienced the cross and tapped its power before he ever faced it, a thing which is termed as TASTING THE POWERS OF THE AGE TO COME. That is why Jesus offered up prayers with tears and loud cries to God. The Father then gave him power that caused him no to be killed by anything or anyone, he could lay up his life and pick it at will.

Hence the cross can give one who has died and rose from it power over all negative and positive things in heaven, earth and under the earth. Besides what you defeated and achieved on the cross begin to Reckon or consider the new life and what Jesus Christ enjoys at the right hand of God where we sit together with him.

What do you "shepherd"? Does your "sheep" hear your voice in obedience? You can define what you shepherd.

Galatians 6:14 My only boast is in the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus, our Messiah. In him I have been crucified to this natural realm; and the natural realm is dead to me and no longer dominates my life.

We have to reckon or count it to ourselves that what is true about Jesus Christ on the cross is true and applicable to us who are of his faith in this life (world) and in the one to come.

The world in its fallen nature must not affect us in anyway because we are dead to it and it's dead to us. We have to be serious about this such that we are not labelled as mere talkers and religious people with no evidence that we are Christ's.
