Redemption and Adoption


 

Isaiah 43:1-3 Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;

I have summoned you by name; you are mine.

2 When you pass through the waters,

I will be with you;

and when you pass through the rivers,

they will not sweep over you.

When you walk through the fire,

you will not be burned;

the flames will not set you ablaze.

3 For I am the LORD your God,

the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;

1 Peter 2:9-10 9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

 

How often do we go through life unaware that we have been given kingdom power? We have authority that comes straight from the Throne of God and purchased by the blood of Jesus.

 

What does this authority accomplish? When we recognize we have Kingdom authority and when we speak it boldly. we are no longer under the threat of any enemy. Instead, we are victorious as we claim the power granted to us in Jesus’ name.

 

May we claim with authority the name of Jesus, at which every knee will bow and every tongue confess.

 

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
