TEXT

"Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it." - Colossians 2:14-15.

The greatest event in the history of mankind, was seeing the Great God of the universe choosing to become weak in order to save a feeble and weak creature, man.

 From where we have read this morning, the Bible makes it clear to us, that whatever was in force against us has been taken out of the way. God has obtained for us a legal discharge from the hand-writing of ordinances, which was against us. The charges brought against us by the enemy are blotted out. No accusations brought against any bona-fide child of God can stand any more. Glory to Jesus!

 There is always a price to pay for greatness or for any high positions. For us to be who and where we are today JESUS PAID THE PRICE.

What happened on the cross is what makes you and I powerful. The death of the the Lord Jesus on the Cross removed the wall of partition that separated man and God and man and man.

On the cross of Calvary Jesus gave us a new identity, (we are now sons and daughters of the MOST HIGH GOD) a new position, (having delivered us from the kingdom of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son) and a new destination, (from the Earth to the Heaven.

  The event that took place on the Cross gave us total freedom and power. On the cross Jesus took away my shame and gave me fame. He took away also my labor and gave me favor.

  He has also obtained a glorious victory for us over the powers of darkness: "And, having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it," - Col 2:15.

Only the power of the cross overcomes every other power.

 The Bible says Jesus took the sins, shame, the problems of the whole world and nailed them to the cross.

The cross is the summary of our salvation and redemption.

It is the beautiful conclusion of the story of mankind. Hallelujah 🙌

  PRAYER
