Jesus
saith unto him, have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known
me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father… (John 14:9).
When
Jesus walked the earth, He had the consciousness of a King that distinguished
Him from the crowd. He had no consciousness of lack and He always confidently
spoke words that amazed the religious people of His day.
One
day, He said “the words that
I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” Jesus knew
His words weren’t empty; He was conscious of His divinity and boldly declared
it. In John 6:38 He said “For
I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent
me” What boldness and audacity! Everyone knew Him as the son of
Joseph the Carpenter, yet He declared He came down from heaven. Only a man who
knew who He really was could speak this way. No wonder He had absolute mastery
over the circumstances of this world.
Again,
in John 8:12, He said, “I am
the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but
shall have the light of life.” Can you beat that? He didn’t come
talking about the light, but says “I am the light of the world. But did you
know Jesus also spoke about you and said “You
are the light of the world?” (Matthew 5:14). Therefore everywhere
you go, you ought also to declare with gusto, “I am the light of the world!” In
this season, be conscious of who you are in Christ; be bold to call yourself
what God has called you.
Jesus
gave us an example to follow of how to live victoriously on the earth. His consciousness of who He was
controlled everything He said and did. You also can live as
successfully as He did by following this principle. But first you need to have
the Holy Spirit, for He’s the one who brings boldness into your spirit by
making the consciousness of who you are in Christ real to you. This month, you
are set for absolute mastery over the circumstances of this world. Praise the
Lord!
