BVOV Magazine 2013 - present

I know. If it were easy everyone would be doing it—and they aren’t. As a born-again child of God though, you were born to do it! You’re an heir of God’s promise. You’re the seed of Abraham and you’re fully equipped to follow in his footsteps. You actually have even more going for you than Abraham did! For after Jesus was raised from the dead, when He established the new covenant, He reenacted the same scene we saw in Genesis 22. He went into heaven’s sanctuary with His own blood and “having obtained eternal redemption for us…through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God” (Hebrews 9:12, 14). Picture it! Jesus stood there in the holiest place in the universe and was judged spotless. He was judged victorious, declared to be God, and the Father swore an oath to Him as The LORD Advocate Head of the Church and to us as His Body. He swore on His own life to fulfill for us every word of the new covenant. This is what Galatians 3:13-14 is talking about when it says: “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.” We have God’s blood-sworn oath: The power of the curse has been destroyed! By Jesus’ stripes we have been healed! My God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus! When your soul gets anchored in the fact that God has sworn an oath over Jesus’ blood that He would destroy Himself if He ever failed to bring to pass for you even one of those promises, there’s no way you can stay sick, broke, sorry and sad. There’s no way any attack of the devil, no matter how fierce, can stand against the faith and patience that assurance inspires in you. It’s not knowing these things that has hindered us and kept us living like spiritual babies. It’s believing the lies of the devil—like, “Maybe God wants me to learn something from this sickness and lack”—that’s been the problem. God didn’t put that sickness or lack on you to teach you something. By His blood-sworn oath that’s an impossibility. So instead of focusing on symptoms and circumstances, get your mind over on that oath. Fellowship with God over the price Jesus paid for your redemption. Sit before these mighty truths until, like Abraham, your soul is anchored in God’s promise and lay hold of all that Jesus has provided for you! V Points to Get You There: 1) Abraham’s faith stand was unwavering because he knew how serious God was about His WORD. (Heb. 6:13-14) 2) God’s oath-backed promise enabled Abraham to patiently endure in faith, despite contrary circumstances. (Heb. 6:15) 3) As a believer you are an heir of that oath-backed promise. (Gal. 3:29) 4) God has promised and sworn to you in the blood of Jesus that He will fulfill for you every word of the new covenant. (Heb. 6:17-18) 5) Focusing on how serious God is about keeping His WORD will help you stand strong in faith and keep the devil under your feet.
