THE POWER OF SAINTHOOD

With the physical eye we see Satan’s vast empire and multitudes of followers. How few there are today of Christ’s followers. Because of it, there are mountains of precious souls lying dead in their sins under Satan’s foot of pride, and few march under the blood stained banner of the Lord Jesus Christ. Many people foolishly think that Hell is stronger than Heaven, and that the arms [the followers] of Satan are more powerful and victorious than Christ and the work He did on the cross. Where can you find Christians that truly follow the Savoir into Heaven? It’s obvious there are very few.

However, Deuteronomy 32:30 states one Christian will chase a thousand, and two ten thousand. So because each Christian multiplies ten times, three would chase a hundred thousand, and four a million, five ten million, six one hundred million, seven a billion, and eight of us will chase ten billion, more than twice the entire population of the earth. Because of this, the army of Christ need not be as many as the sinners. "For they that be with us [the few Christians] are more than they that be with them [the enemy of Christianity]." But can you imagine our advantage if there were millions of us, millions of true Christians? Few being stronger than the multitude has been the case many times in Bible History including Noah, his wife, his three sons and their three wives. Through the heavenly Father’s actions, the whole world, except for Noah and his small company, were drowned.

When Satan attacks a true saint, he has no success. It is as though a tiny frog-like spirit helplessly attempts to attack a high, spiritual tower behind a high wall with very strong gates, and bars. Satan cannot penetrate this kind of city which is the true, Spirit-filled Christian. Satan and his imps are as unclean, weak spirits, groveling, crawling on the earth and unable to take hold of the least of true saints who have been fastened into the Lord like branches in a strong oak tree. Christ has brought the true Christian out of Satan’s dominion with a high hand, in spite of Satan’s forces and all the fury of Hell.

The whole world is standing at the edge of the Red Sea. It has no choice but to turn back and be destroyed by the enemy then afterwards face God’s final, terrible judgments and penalties, or to seek our heavenly Father for deliverance with all its heart, soul, mind, and strength and wait for our Father to open a door and freeway, where there once seemed to be no sure way, so they may proceed with confidence to His promised rewards given to all those who have obeyed.

This is obviously the time to choose to serve the heavenly Father, that is, the Father of believers only. He is the Father of those who have been sanctified by Him. Those who have been restored by the nativity of spiritual power have begun to be the sons of God. When we true Christians pray, we say "Our Father," because He has begun to be ours. He has ceased to be the Father of unbelievers who have forsaken Him. A sinful man cannot be a son. The name of sons is attributed to those to whom remission of sins is granted. To them, immortality is promised anew. In the Words of our Lord Himself, "Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever, but the Son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free [from being a servant of sin], ye shall be free indeed."

We become God’s son when united with the Son of God. Just as a branch grafted onto a tree is one with the tree, you may become a son of God, grafted like a branch into the only begotten Son of God right now, this very moment, by praying this prayer unto the heavenly Father.

Prayer

My Lord and my God, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner.  I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God.  I believe that He died on the cross and shed His precious blood for the forgiveness of all my sins.  I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit  and that He sits on the right hand of God at this moment, hearing my confession of sin and this prayer.  I open up the door of my heart and I invite You into my heart, Lord Jesus. Wash all of my filthy sins away in the precious blood that You shed in my place on the cross at Calvary.  You will not turn me away, Lord Jesus, You will forgive my sins and save my soul. I know because Your Word, the Bible says so. Your Word says that You will turn no one away, and that includes me. Therefore, I know that You have heard me, and I know that You have answered me, and I know that I am saved. And I thank You, Lord Jesus, for saving my soul, and I will show my thankfulness by doing as You command and sin no more.
