Jesus came to show us our potential and capacity to live Life more abundantly, the zōē Life!
Jesus came to display life on another, higher level; He came to display zōē Life. He came to bring Heaven to earth.
As I wrote yesterday, He confirmed this Truth as He spoke in John chapter 10:
10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have Life (zōē), and that they may have it more abundantly.
In other Words, Jesus came to give us everything in abundance, more than we expect—Life (zōē) in its fullness until we overflow!
What is zōē Life? It is the absolute fulness of life, both essential and ethical, which belongs to God; it is the GOD-kind of Life, Life as GOD has it. This life in us is on a higher level and a higher dimension than what the world walks in.
We must keep zōē Life in our consciousness at all times. Jesus prophesied that this zōē Life was to be available to all who accepted Him as their Lord and Savior.
Jesus spoke in John chapter 7:
38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of Living Water.”
39 Jesus was prophesying about the Holy Spirit that believers were being prepared to receive. But the Holy Spirit had not yet been poured out upon them, because Jesus had not yet been unveiled in his full splendor (glorified).
You and I are intended to walk in a higher dimension of Life on a daily basis. Don’t accept anything less.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 4:
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by Whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
We have been marked with a Seal, and the demons are fully aware of It. They want to keep us focused on walking in the lower dimension, at the worldly level. They know that as we ascend and take our place seated with Christ, we will walk in power and authority in the Name of Jesus. Then, they will be cast out to dry places.
Christ’s resurrection changed your condition, your identity. It shifted you into another dimension that had been unattainable before.
Paul expressed this Truth as he wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2nd Corinthians chapter 5:
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
You now have a Spiritual identity different from before. Jesus explained this Truth to Nicodemus as He spoke in John chapter 3:
1 Now there was a prominent religious leader among the Jews named Nicodemus, who was part of the sect called the Pharisees.
2 One night he discreetly came to Jesus and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one performs the miracle signs that You do, unless God’s power is with Him.”
3 Jesus answered, “Nicodemus, listen to this Eternal Truth: Before a person can even perceive God’s Kingdom, they must first experience a rebirth.”
This rebirth is just the beginning.
4 Nicodemus said, “Rebirth? How can a gray-headed man be reborn? It’s impossible for anyone to go back into the womb a second time and be reborn!”
5 Jesus answered, “I speak an Eternal Truth: Unless you are born of water and the Spirit, you will never enter God’s Kingdom.
6 For the natural realm only gives birth to things that are natural, but the Spiritual realm gives birth to Supernatural zōē Life!
7 “You shouldn’t be amazed by my statement, ‘You all must be born from above!’ 8 For the Spirit-Wind blows as it chooses. You can hear its sound, but you don’t know where it came from or where it’s going. So it is the same with those who are Spirit-born!”
You and I have been given the opportunity to walk in His power and authority; He has given us the potential and capacity! However, each of us chooses what dimension we will walk in. Your Spiritual maturity is the deciding factor.
