Ephesians: 1:22: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23: Which is his body, the fullness of him that fills all in all.

Have you ever thought about your self worth? Of course you have because we all want to feel important and needed. Man tries to put a price on people heads that measures their self worth or what can you bring to the table will determined what you are worth. The greatest story ever told is the death burial and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Yet, the reason why people in general cannot understand this fact that Jesus Christ did not only die and was buried but He is raised and now sit at God’s right hand ruling and reigning in the universe, is because it takes spiritual wisdom from God, verse 17! With that in mind after Christ was given dominion over Heaven and earth in the completion of that dominion is by Jesus Christ being head over His Church, whom is His Body. Christ has dominion over His Church which in turn He also rules through His Church by the manifestation of His Mighty Power working through and in His Church. Jesus Christ presences in this world are through His Church whom again is His body the fullness of Him that fills all in all. God has given the Church the right to reign and to take dominion in this world by the supernatural Power of Jesus Christ His Holy Spirit, Acts 1:8! We are His body the Church and He is the head, meaning direction and power comes from the head and you cannot sever the head from the body. In addition, the direction and power from the head is to the body enabling the body to operate with direction and power that the head possess. Meaning the head does not operate on earth without the body and the body does not operate without the head as simple as that! Therefore, it behooves every baptized born again believer to operate under the direction, authority, dominion and power that is sent down from the head to rule and reign in this world. Why, we are the fullness of Him that fills every born again baptized believer which is the all in all! It is time for the Church to rise up and be the entity that Jehovah God intended it to be, the extension of His Sons power, might, rule, authority, dominion and reign on the earth. Are you ready Church to rise up? Are you ready to take on the responsibility that Christ has given His Church? Today my friend, God has a particular plan and position for you in the Kingdom of God. Every believer is important and is needed to take on the responsibility with dominion in this world in the spiritual realm to defeat every opposition, principality, power, might, authority, and dominion by the power of Jesus Christ that is against His Church, His body. It is time for you my friend to believe God and trust in what He has in-store for you to accomplish in Jesus Name…
