We Are....

by Steve Countryman  
2/11/2016 / Christian Living


Acts 28:1-6 1 Once safely on shore, we found out that the island was called Malta. 2 The islanders showed us unusual kindness. They built a fire and welcomed us all because it was raining and cold. 3 Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. 4 When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, "This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live." 5 But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects. 6 The people expected him to swell up or suddenly fall dead; but after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.

Paul had a close walk with God. Acts 23:11 The following night the Lord stood near Paul and said, "Take courage! As you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so you must also testify in Rome." Paul knew that he was to go to Rome and testify before Cesar. Since God had told Paul this nothing could happen to prevent Paul from going to Rome. No disaster at sea, no shipwreck, no poisonous snake or anything else that the Devil could throw at Paul would keep him from Rome.

So when the snake bit him Paul didn't panic, he didn't run around crying out "I'm going to die". He just shook the snake off into the fire and went about his business. When God says this is what I want you to do you can take it to the bank! This is what living a daily life looks like when you know who Christ is in you and who you are in Christ.

We are is not I am! There is strength in numbers. It is not ALL about you, your problems and daily struggles but how you impact those around you everywhere you go. It is about how the atmosphere changes and is charged with the presences of God when you enter a room because you are a child of the Most High God. We are stronger and more powerful together than on our own. Do the math if one can send a thousand to flight and two can send ten thousand then four can send one million to flight!

Even when Jesus sent out His disciples He did so sending them out two by two. Not by themselves but in pairs! In the book of Acts the disciples traveled most of the time with other believers or met up with them then preached the Good News, casted out demons, healed the people and raised the dead.

The enemy the Devil knows that if he can separate you from other believers and from your church then he has weakened you, your witness and your effectiveness as a Christian. But he also knows that when believers come together that no power on earth can stop us! God inhabits the praises of His people and where two or more are gathered in His name Jesus is there among us. His power is increased, multiplied and overflowing in and through us!

Declaring God's Word out loud is very powerful and you need to do it daily. Speaking those things that are not as if they were WILL help manifest them in your life. The following is a declaration of who "WE ARE" in Christ that you need to recite often

"We are children of the Most High God. We are the righteousness of God. We are empowered by the Holy Spirit by God's grace and anointing to do good works. We are infused with the giftings of the Holy Spirit. We are awakened, led and overflowing with the Holy Spirit. We are filled with compassion, courage, boldness, passion and zeal. We are God's hands, feet and mouth here on earth. We are God's chosen, His elect, chosen before time began for this time and place. We are God's representatives of His kingdom here on earth. We are the most powerful enemy of the wicked. We are the vessels to hold His glory and the conduits of His will fulfilled, manifested, demonstrated and displayed for the world to see! AMEN!"
