THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD Part XI THE SPIRIT OF MIGHT ...

us, if God is not establishing within us HIS REIGN, if we have not yet
realized the point of reigning in life by one, Jesus Christ, then we know
nothing yet as we ought to know of what it means to be a son of God.
Those apprehended ones with whom the Father is dealing in this hour
are not only finding forgiveness they are overcoming the world, they are
finding a place of very real victory in their joint-seating with Christ in
the heavenly realm, FAR ABOVE all principality, and power, and
might, and dominion in this world. They are learning to daily reign with
Christ in ALL THINGS, whether in the ministry of the Spirit, affairs at
home, in business or in any encounter in their environment – they can
reign and rule over that which God wants them to rule. There is no such
thing as discouragement, defeat or despair to those who learn to REIGN!
There must be such a people gained by God in redemption that through
them the authority of God can be executed and the kingdom of God can
come in power upon the earth.
Today, although the kingdom has not yet completely come to pass
upon this earth, although God has not yet gained a sphere wherein He
can exercise His authority in a full way, and although his glory has not
yet been made fully manifest, nevertheless there is a small place, a small
sphere, thank the Lord! where there exists the condition of God’s partial
reign, which thereby manifests a portion of God’s glory. This is the body
of Christ! Today the Spirit-filled and Spirit-led members of the body of
Christ are the expression of God’s reigning here on earth. What God
desires today is to perfect and expand His reigning sphere within his
people and through His people. It is through the body of Jesus Christ
that God will bind Satan and destroy his power. It is through the body of
Christ that life and blessing shall be ministered so that all the families of
the earth shall be blessed. Thus, His name will be honored in the whole
earth, his kingdom established and His glorious will done. This is the
commission of God’s sons. This is the final purpose of our redemption!
