The Struggle is Over

The Struggle Is Over

It does not require any faith on my part to enjoy this, be¬ cause He gave it to me; it is mine, and what is mine I do not have to have faith to obtain, for I have already obtained it; I am in possession of it. All I need to do is praise Him for it, and when I praise Him and thank Him for it, then the thing becomes operative in my life.

So now, I stand before God and the angels-yes, and before Satan-clothed in Christ, hidden in Christ, enwrapped in Christ. Think what it means! His Name is the Name of the Conqueror, and I am baptized into this Name, and bear this Name; I hear the Name of the Conqueror.

“For as many as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” I have put on Christ; Christ tabernacles Himself over me. “It is no longer I then that live but Christ liveth in me.” “Wherefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.”

Then, I am a new creature, and that new creature is seated with Christ. “Old things have passed away.” The old things of weakness, the old things of failure, the old things of impotence, the old things of unbelief, are passed away while the new things of faith, the new things of life, the new things of health for body, soul, and spirit are mine.
I live in the new realm where the new things are a reality.

“And that life I now live, I live by faith in the Son of God Who loved me and gave Himself up for me.” I do not have to TAKE this position; I am in this position. I do not have to struggle for it, believe for it, die daily for it, for I am in it-it is mine. Mine because when I was born again, and baptized into the Name of the Lord Jesus, I was born into it, I was baptized into it, and I am in it. Hallelujah!

This gives me the undisputed Right to the use of His Name and all that Name stands for in Earth, Heaven, and Hell.
