Who were born, not of
blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. – John 1:13
We’re supernatural by nature. In John 3:6,
Jesus told Pharisee Nicodemus, “That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and
that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” If you are Born Again, there’s
nothing you need to do (or can do, actually) to be supernatural. You already
are. John 1:13 says we are born of God or “God-begotten” (Message Bible). Just
as the child of a cat is naturally a cat and the child of a dog is naturally a
dog, the child of a supernatural God is naturally supernatural (nice phrase,
innit?).
This fact is important if one wants to live a life
of power. As a child of God, everything you do is supernatural whether you
realise it or not. In fact, some of what we do without thinking should scare normal
people: things like prayer (speaking to an invisible Being), commanding and
directing spirits (angels), laying our hands and pronouncing spells on our
children (blessing), and other such actions are – on the surface – not
different from what powerful mediaeval wizards and witches were known to do.
Yet the power a regular Believer has at his or
her disposal is infinitely more than any sorcerer can hope to wield. It’s high
time we realized what we carry in us and what we are. We’re not victims, we’re victors;
we’re not afraid of demons, on the contrary the hordes of Hell are helpless
against our advancement, (Mat 16:18).
Indeed, John the Beloved summed it all in the
fourth chapter of his first letter:
You are of God, little children, and have
overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than He that is in the
world. – 1Jn
4:4.
HALLELUIAH!
More Blessings await you today; you’ll not miss them in Jesus’ Name.
