IT WAS ALL DONE BY HIM



Colossians 1:13 NKJV says, “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.” 


This verse is a full declaration of what Jesus has done for every believer. Paul begins by saying “He has delivered us.” The word "He" is important. It means that Jesus alone is the one who delivers you. You do not deliver yourself. You do not save yourself. You do not pay for your own freedom. When Jesus died on the cross and rose again, He completed the work of salvation once and for all. Nothing was left unfinished. Your salvation is complete.


Many believers struggle because they think they must pay something to God to be free. They feel they must cry harder, fight demons longer, or perform spiritual tasks to earn deliverance. But the truth is this: Jesus paid everything. You only need to believe and receive the grace that He has already provided. Salvation is a gift, not a debt.


Paul also wrote that we were delivered “from the power of darkness.” Notice the tense "delivered" which is past tense. The moment you believed in Christ, you were instantly removed from the authority of darkness. The devil lost every legal right to dominate you. If this is true, then why do many believers still suffer? The answer is simple: lack of knowledge and lack of faith. Faith comes by hearing the right message. Hearing about your freedom, not your bondage. Many teachings today talk more about curses, demons, and oppression than about what Jesus has already finished. This kind of teaching brings fear instead of faith.


The verse continues, “and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.” The Amplified version says “transferred us.” Here again it is "He" It is God who transfers you; you cannot transfer yourself. Like a student moved from one school to another, your environment changes. You now live by new rules, under new leadership, and with a new identity. You cannot wear the old uniform in the new school. In the same way, the spirits of darkness, the old habits, and the old identity are not allowed in the kingdom of God. When God transferred you, he gave you new clothes, a new life, and a new position. You are free and made new.


Your life must be centered on Him. Surrender to His will and He will take care of you. Focus on knowing Him, understanding His finished work, and feeding on the good news of your salvation. Avoid negativity and wrong teachings. Spend time in prayer, studying  this message of salvation, and fellowship with God.


Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me surrender completely and walk fully in Your finished work. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

WISDOM TO MAKE RIGHT DECISIONS

  James 1:5 NKJV says, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”   God is the true source of wisdom. This verse begins by saying "if any of you lacks wisdom,"  meaning God knows there are moments when even His children do not understand what to do. Wisdom is not automatic. It must be asked for. God welcomes you to ask Him because He gives generously. He does not judge, condemn, or shame you for not knowing. He does not accuse you for lacking understanding. Instead, He gives freely, kindly, and without reproach. And the promise is sure, it will be given. God never lies. When you ask in faith, He releases divine wisdom to guide you in your decisions. When you want to make any major decision in your life pause and ask God for wisdom. Our minds are limited but God knows everything. He knows the future. He knows how things will turn out after you make that decision. What looks right to you ma...
