As the called and anointed teachers in the Word of God, it is imperative that individuals learn who they are in Christ Jesus. They need to know the power that is within them to conquer the demonic influences of this world. God has placed in your spirit his Holy Spirit to work with each individual and to make great changes in their lives if they would only believe, trust, and submit to the Holy Spirit’s directions, corrections, and revelation knowledge of God’s holy Word. The Word of God is powerful than any two-edged sword (Hebrew 4:12). God’s Word is living, life changing, and powerful as it works in you. God’s Word reveals who you are and who you are not. It penetrates the very core of your moral and spiritual being. The gifts and fruits that you receive in your walk with the Lord are astronomical. The gifts will become second nature to you; what you thought was hard to accomplish becomes very easy for you to obtain. For the past thirty-four years, I have served and been a pastor in God’s vineyard. I have truly grown and changed spiritually because of the acceptance of his Son, Jesus Christ. That spiritual sword has opened up my heart for the change to take place, and I have surrendered my life to Christ. I have several degrees, which enhance my knowledge and ability to comprehend his Word and write on it. I have an associate of arts degree, bachelor of science degree in business administration, a master’s degree in church administration, and a doctorate of theology. This book is very inspirational and spiritual. It will guide you to the Lord and show you the things that you need to do, how to walk in his Word, how to overcome spiritual warfare, and how to be truly a child of the King.

INTRODUCTION

This book is written on behalf of those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Their Personal Saviour. A lot of people think that once you accept Jesus or repeat the scripture Romans 10:9 think that is the end of the journey.

However, you must learn all about who Jesus is and what He deposited in you after He went away. He deposited in you the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the one who will lead, guide, protect, speak to you, warn you and even chastise your behavior.

The Holy Spirit is in all believers and you become a member of God’s Family. As members of God’s Family, you may have different interests and gifts, but you are united by the Holy Spirit into one spiritual body.

As a new creature in Christ Jesus, you will find that you are no longer the same. The carnal man in you now becomes the child of the King, and joint heir with Jesus Christ. The scripture states that you are now no longer your own. You are now a child of God. Your regenerated spirit – the new spirit - soul, and body belongs to God (I Thessalonians 5:23). You belong to God.

Jesus is the one who died on Calvary’s cross for you. He bled and died to save a sinner like you. You are now set free from the torment of the carnal person you use to be and freed from the powers of Satan. Jesus defeated Satan when He went to hell (Revelation 1:18) and took the keys from Satan. Death no longer has power over you for you now have eternal life in Christ Jesus.

Remember that Satan is now upset with you and will use his demonic influence constantly to persuade you to change your mind, encourage you to do the things of the world, or be the old person that you use to be in the
