In Genesis 1:26, God gave dominion over the earth to man. If anything would be done in the earth, it would be done through a man. That’s why God elected not to intervene when man first sinned in the Garden. If God would have intervened, He would have violated His Word. God placed His Word higher than anything else (Ps 138:2).
Satan knew this about God and for a while, he used this for his advantage. However, God had a trick up His sleeve. God took a piece of Himself, wrapped it in flesh, and named Him Jesus. When Jesus operated in the earth, He operated in the form of a man, not God. Jesus came to fulfill the law and not sin (Matt 5:17). Jesus was an innocent man.
When Jesus died on the cross, His innocent blood was shed for the remission of sin for all mankind. This destroyed Satan’s empire in the earth. Dominion was returned to man. We now have the opportunity to live blessed and free because of Jesus the Christ.
Thank God for Jesus.
Once again people of God we must be mindful of what we say. Our words do have power. A lot of times we hear people say “life is too short for…” When we make that statement, we literally shorten the days our life. God promised us a long prosperous life and he fully intends for us to live it out.
Matthew 12:37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Speak Life
