(You’re Not Subject To This World’s Laws And Principles)

TO THE BIBLE: Colossians 2:20
“Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations?”

LET’S TALK
Our opening verse lets us know that we’re not subject to the principles of this world. Jesus dominated this world; He lived above the decadence of the world and the corruption and failure of His society.

He lived far above and beyond the government and systems of the day when He walked the earth. That’s the life He’s given us: one that’s not subject to, but dominates the rudiments of this world.

He’s made us to function above and beyond the systems of this world. He said you’re in the world but not of the world.

That means you’re to dominate the world. Many around you may be influenced and provoked to compromise due to the deceit, corruption, and wickedness in today’s world, but not you! You hail from God’s Kingdom, and your life is built on, and regulated by, His truth only.

Keep learning God’s Word. It’ll make you think and talk like Jesus. In John 16:33, He said, “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.

In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” Have the same consciousness because He overcame the world for you.

Although He lived in a world plagued by gross darkness, deceit, economic hardships, sickness, oppression, deaths, disasters, etc., He had a victor’s mindset, the kind He expects you to function with.

When you face challenges, persecutions, distressing situations, turbulent times, trials, and temptations, be unruffled because in Christ you have overcome the world (1 John 4:4).

Let this consciousness reflect even in your prayer language. It makes no difference the challenges you face; when you pray, declare that in the Name of Jesus, you’ve overcome the world and its systems, hatred, deceit, poverty, corruption, depression, falsehood, and antichrist spirit. Hallelujah!

Speak:
I live and function above and beyond the systems of this world; I’m independent of the hardships, corruption, evil and deceit in the world because I live in Christ, in His Word, and in the dominion of the Spirit, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
