![]() Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? In the Garden of Eden God gave Adam a choice. He could allow God to show him what is good and what is evil and submit himself to God. He could walk with God in harmony and live by His wonderful laws of love. Or he could make himself god and decide for himself what was good and evil. Of course, Satan deceived him into choosing to make himself god. What Adam did not understand is he would serve someone. He would be influenced by either God or the devil. When he rejected God and sinned against him he came under the influence of the devil. By the time Noah came around every thought and intent of the heart of all the people on the whole earth was evil continually. Man is condemned and damned for he is born with a nature that exalts himself as god to choose good from evil for himself. At the cross, Jesus reconciled man back to God. Once again mankind has a choice. The same two trees are set before him. He can continue to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil where he continues to make himself god and decide what he determines is good and evil. Or he can choose the Tree of life. The Cross is the Tree of Life. When you accept Jesus into your heart you are born again. You get to start your life over. You are reconciled to God and you gladly submit to what He says is good and evil. His laws of love become the wisdom you build your life on. You walk in harmony with your God submitting to His Lordship. God sets before each one of us this day life or death, blessing or cursing. You can continue to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and be cursed and experience death or you can choose to believe the gospel and accept Jesus into your heart and be blessed and experience life.

![]() John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. When God created this world it was good. Everything He made was good. However, in order to make mankind in His image, He had to give them a free will. It was God’s plan for man to walk with Him and to take dominion over this world. His design was for Adam to expand the Garden of Eden until it covered the whole world. However, in order for man to have a free will, he must have a right to choose his own way. God placed two trees in the Garden, the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God told Adam do not eat from the Tree of Good and Evil. However, Satan was on this earth and he entered into the garden and deceived man to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Satan deceived Adam to make his own way apart from God. What Adam did not understand, is he would serve someone. He could eat from the tree of life and willfully walk with God and serve him or he could separate himself from God and serve Satan. Mankind died to God and came alive to self. He took on the nature of his new owner Satan, a nature that exalts self. Satan rules this world through man’s sin nature. He is the one tempting man to hurt one another. He is the one putting thoughts of doubt, unbelief, suspension, etc. in the minds of mankind. He and his demon roam to and fro on this earth wreaking all kinds of havoc in the lives of mankind. The good news is Jesus defeated Satan on the cross and has redeemed mankind from his dominion. You can now be translated from Satan’s dominion into God’s dominion. You can now become born-again and receive a new spirit (nature) and a new heart. God’s Spirit will come and make His home inside of you. He will empower you to rule over Satan and his kingdom. He will protect you and teach you how to rule and reign over Satan in this world. God is good and He is love. He does not do the bad nor does he permit Satan to do anything. Man has a free will and he allows Satan to do all the evil and bad that is in the world. Go to www.abundantlifefellowship.org and click on the “Pathway” to living an abundant life.

Satan controls this world through blinding people’s minds. Because of Adam’s sin in the Garden of Eden mankind is born with a sinful nature. This nature is selfish. It is void inside. Satan deceives man by tempting him to fulfill his lusts in an attempt to fill the void in his heart. This void is a longing to be loved, accepted, valued, and to have a purpose. People put demands on other people to make them happy and fill this void. Unfortunately, the people who have the demand on them to make you happy, are looking to you or someone else, or something else, to make them happy. Everyone will eventually disappoint you and fall short of your expectation. The result is offense, hurt, disappointment, anger, strife, oppression, etc. Satan is the one that keeps people looking to this world to find their happiness. All they find is disappointment and sorrow. The answer to life is the light of the gospel, the truth that God loves you. He demonstrated His great love for you by sending Jesus to die on the cross and pay the debt for your sin. Jesus reconciled you back to God. When you believe this gospel God gives you a new spirit and a new heart. His Holy Spirit comes inside of you and fills this void to be loved. As you get to know Him He reveals your identity in Christ, your purpose in Christ and a glorious inheritance He has for you in Christ. Without Jesus, you are condemned to a life of continual disappointment and frustration. No one can fill the void in your heart. No person can, no amount of money can, and no amount of power and influence can. You are damn to a life of disappointment. The good news is you can be reconciled to your God and His great love for you can fill your void. With Jesus living inside of you, life is awesome. The more you get to know Him the better life becomes. You can know Him by His Spirit that lives inside of you. He has a wonderful and great plan for your life. It is better than you could ever imagine. I know that I could never have imagined my life would have turned out so wonderful and I’m still just getting started. Just think about the potential of having God living inside of you. All things are now possible for you. He is amazing and He loves you and would never harm you and He never disappoints you. He is everything to me. Go to www.abundantlifefellowship.org and click on the “Pathway” to living an abundant life. Start with the series “What Now”.

Jesus defeated Satan on the cross and stripped him of his power against us. He did it by redeeming us and forever forgiving us. Satan greatest weapon against us is to accuse us of sin and then condemn us for sinning. Jesus stripped Satan of his power to accuse us and condemn us by forgiving us. You cannot condemn the forgiven. The Law of Moses empowered Satan to accuse us before God. Every time with broke one of God’s laws Satan who stand before God as an attorney and accuse us before God. Under the Old Testament, he had a legal right to accuse us and condemn us before God. The Law of Moses gave him that right. However, on the cross Jesus fulfilled the Law and paid the debt it required for sin by offering Himself as our substitute. Jesus’ innocent blood paid the debt the law required in full. Jesus wiped out the Old Testament Law of Moses and brought in a New Covenant. Under this New Covenant, our faith is counted as righteousness when we believe in Jesus. Our sins are no longer counted against us, therefore, Satan has no legal right to condemn us. Furthermore, Satan has forever lost his audience before God. He was cast out of heaven when Jesus died on the cross. He has no legal right to condemn us or afflict us. We have complete dominion over him. However, he is a thief and a murderer. He comes to our lives to kill, steal, and destroy. When he comes we are instructed the resist him steadfast in the faith and he will flee from us.

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Ephesians 1:22-23 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. God loves you. He gave Jesus all power and dominion in heaven and on earth. Then He placed you in Christ and made you one with Him. God initially gave the dominion of this world to Adam. Adam gave it to the devil when he sinned in the Garden of Eden and Satan became the god of this world. Jesus defeated Satan at the cross and it was given to Him. He, in turn, gave it back to man (His church). Now it is our responsibility to renew our minds to how to exercise this authority in a practical way that we can use to rule and reign, on this earth, in our everyday lives. The authority that we have as believers is in heaven. However, we are seated with Christ at the right hand of the Father. Since we are citizens of Heaven we have a right to access heavens resources. The Bible reveals Heaven’s resources that are available to us. We access these resources with our faith. We simply believe the Word of God in our hearts and then we proclaim His word with our mouths. Heaven's power/resources are released into this world through our hearts. Our confession of God’s word is Spirit and life. Our confession releases God’s power to move mountains, cure sicknesses, obtain wisdom, etc. Heaven's resources are also released through the laying on hands and also through praying in other tongues. You have the dominion is this world through Jesus. Now gird up the loins of your mind and rule and reign as a king on this earth.
