“Jesus knew that his mission was now finished, and to fulfill Scripture he said, “I am thirsty.”” John 19:28 NLT
“A jar of sour wine was sitting there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put it on a hyssop branch, and held it up to his lips.” John 19:29 NLT
“When Jesus had tasted it, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.” John 19:30 NLT
THE FIGHT IS FIXED
* The Arrangement
THEN GOD SAID... Genesis 1:26
When you’re re living a holy & righteous life it doesn’t matter what people SAY ABOUT YOU, the only thing that matters is what God SAID ABOUT YOU!
STOP CHASING DOWN WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT YOU and START CHASING DOWN WHAT GOD’S WORD has already said about you!
“How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!” Psalm 139:17 NLT
“I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!” Psalm 139:18 NLT
“Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness... Genesis 1:26 NKJV
Let them have DOMINION OVER the fish of the sea, OVER the birds of the air, and OVER the cattle, OVER all the earth and OVER every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”” Genesis 1:26 NKJV
The arrangement from day one was for us to live our lives OVER THE ATTACK never UNDER IT.
Frustrations are the breeding grounds for new opportunities.
“But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, BUT YOU LACKED OPPORTUNITY.” Philippians 4:10 NKJV
“As an eagle stirs up its nest, Hovers over its young, Spreading out its wings, taking them up, Carrying them on its wings,” Deuteronomy 32:11 NKJV
“And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; HE WILL CRUSH YOUR HEAD...”” Genesis 3:15 NIV
Satan came to interrupt the arrangement, Christ came to restore it.
But when the right time finally came, God sent his own Son. He came as the son of a human mother... Galatians 4:4
Satan can’t REARRANGE what God has already ARRANGED to win!
Christ made an arrangement to DIE ON EARTH so that we could LIVE WITH HIM IN HEAVEN.
"It is finished.” John 19:30
Jesus paid in FULL the debt that our EMPTY sins accumulated.
“THEN JESUS SHOUTED OUT AGAIN, and he released his spirit.” Matthew 27:50 NLT
We fight FROM victory not FOR victory!!!
Death couldn’t take Jesus OUT, so Jesus had to let death IN.
“AT THAT MOMENT the curtain in the sanctuary of the Temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. The earth shook, rocks split apart,” Matthew 27:51 NLT
* Access Has Been Granted
“Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.” Matthew 6:9 KJV
“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10 KJV
* All Authority Has Been Released
“When they saw him, they worshiped him—but some of them doubted!” Matthew 28:17 NLT
“Jesus came and told his disciples, “I HAVE BEEN GIVEN ALL AUTHORITY in heaven and on earth.” Matthew 28:18 NLT
“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19 NLT
“Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”” Matthew 28:20 NLT
The reservations that you have about yourself, doesn’t change the reservations that God has made for you.
Your INPUT doesn’t change God’s OUTPUT.
“And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.” Luke 10:18 NKJV
“Behold, I GIVE YOU THE AUTHORITY to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19 NKJV
You can be in a storm but the storm doesn’t have to be in you.
You’ve been assigned this storm to show the world that the waves and the wind still obey His NAME.
Have you accepted this arrangement?
What storm are you facing this morning?
What’s your fight?
