Inherited Authority to rule! Part 2

Agapetos,

In the previous post (Part 1 of Inherited Authority to rule!) we saw that:

God came to earth in the form of a Man for a very specific reason;

God made man to have dominion, i.e. execute authority and rule on earth;

That the enemy is out to deceive and mislead mankind to believe he has no power and authority; and

God went to every extent to ensure that man would take up his inheritance and rule.

The undone plan

God's plan was for Adam to rule and take dominion on the earth. What did Adam do? 

He gave up this very perfect position by not trusting God and submitting to the enemy.

Enters the enemy.

God sticks to His plan

But God will not go against His own Word. 

If He said that man would have dominion on earth, then that’s how it should be.

God said it and He will not turn on His Word!

Isa 55:11  So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Num 23:19  God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

So, this then should answer a very fundamental question.

Why did God come as a man?

There is a long answer to this question. Read the old covenant in your Bible and you’d see that He did come as God at first and chose to reveal Himself to His people. But the chosen ones at the time preferred not have any of it and directed one of them (Moses) to intercede on their behalf. They preferred not to speak to the God of Love directly, nor to have relationship with Him. 

Instead, they  opted for a set of laws and even onto Moses: Go thou near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that the LORD our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it. Deu 5:27 

He was looking for one Man

God says that He searched all the earth and found no man to be able to stand in the gap.

There was no one worthy to do such a great task.

So, God manifested in human flesh because he would not turn on His own Word.

Enters Yah’shua, Jesus Christ, God with us, YHVH - יהוה - Yahweh manifested as Yah’shua (Jesus) – יהושע  as Man…

... and found One

Now, follow the restoration story … in these verses:

Col 2:15  And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Col 2:14  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; 

Rom 5:21  That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

So, how exactly did we get to regain power and authority?

You are blessed!
