Day 16: "I AM WHO GOD SAYS I AM"

IF "I AM" SAYS I AM, THEN I AM

YOUR SUCCESS IS DETERMINED BY YOU BELIEVING WHAT GOD SAYS AND CONFESSING (SPEAKING) WHAT THE GREAT “I AM” SAYS YOU ARE!

1. If “I AM” says I am……CLEANSED FROM ALL SIN

The word of God clearly teaches us that, “If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9) Only the blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son can cleanse from sin. He has purged our conscience from dead works to serve the living God. (Hebrews 10:17, 18) That is God’s Word to you. He has 100% cleansed you. He has purged you, He remembers your sins NO MORE……then I am!”

2. If “I AM” says I am……ALIVE IN JESUS CHRIST

The very life of Jesus Christ now abides within you. “It is no longer I who live, but Christ Who lives in me.” (Gal. 2:20) You are ALIVE to God. (Eph. 2:1-5) You are filled with His life. You are linked with Almighty God. The “same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells IN YOU." (Romans 8:11) Jesus is alive in you……then I am.”

3. If “I AM” says I am……A PARTAKER OF DIVINE NATURE

The moment you receive Jesus Christ, the very nature of God is imparted to your spirit, your inner man. The life of God is “Zoe” (Greek Word) uncreated eternal life. You actually receive this into your spirit. “He that hears My Word and believes on Him Who sent Me HAS everlasting life. (ZOE) (John 5:24) This is the God kind of life and nature that he puts within us. (2 Peter 1:4)……then I am.

4. If “I AM” says I am……A NEW CREATION

When a man receives Christ a miracle takes place in the inner man. He becomes a brand new creation. “If any person be in Christ he is a NEW CREATURE, old things are passed away, behold all things are become new.” (2 Cor. 5:17) This is not something that will happen at some future date. This is a fact here and now. You are a NEW CREATION, you are a brand new person……you are a brand new man or woman. Old things are passed away. The old life of sin is finished. All things are new……then I am.

5. If “I AM” says I am……BLESSED WITH ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS

You are not going to be blessed – you already are blessed in Christ. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ WHO HAS BLESSED US WITH ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ.” (Eph. 1:3) In Christ you are complete, you are blessed. As you accept and believe it you will experience it……then I am.

6. If “I AM” says I am……DEAD TO SIN

Before you received Christ you were alive to sin. When He came into your life He cut, broke and severed the sin principle. “Knowing this, that the old man (old sin principle) was crucified with Christ that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.” (Rom. 6:6) “And you has He made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins.” (Eph.2:1) You were dead in sin – but NOW you are ALIVE TO GOD and DEAD TO SIN. Hallelujah……then I am.

7. If “I AM” says I am……DELIVERED FROM SATAN’S KINGDOM

You were living in the domain, kingdom and influence of Satan’s kingdom. “He has delivered you from the power (authority of the kingdom) of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son. (Col. 1:13) You were citizens of Satan’s kingdom. You are now a citizen of the kingdom of light. You are now living in the kingdom of blessing, victory, power and provision……then I am.

8. If “I AM” says I am……A JOINT HEIR WITH CHRIST

You have now come into a glorious inheritance. You are JOINT-HEIRS OF ALL THE LORD’S INHERITANCE. “And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and JOINT HEIRS WITH CHRIST; (Rom. 8:17a) What belongs to Christ, now jointly belongs to us. “He is not ashamed to call us brothers.” (Heb. 2:9) You are a joint heir with Christ and all that He has is yours……then I am.

9. If “I AM” says I am……A TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

No longer does God dwell in stone buildings. He now lives in human beings. He lives in you. “Know ye not that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you.” (1 Cor. 3:16) Allow Him to have His way in the temple He has chosen. He desires to live out His life in and through you. Let His presence and power saturate, fill and thrill you. Yield yourselves unto God……then I am.

10. If “I AM” says I am……RIGHTEOUS IN JESUS CHRIST

“Righteousness is the right or ability to stand in the immediate presence of a holy, righteous, and just God without any sense of guilt, sin, inferiority or condemnation.” It is a right standing with God. No man can ever earn such a standing. Through the cross, God gives us this right standing as a free gift. “Jesus, who knew no sin, became sin that we might become the righteousness of God in Jesus Christ.” (2 Cor. 5:21) He became what we were that we might become what He is NOW. He has declared you to be righteous. (Rom. 3:21). He has made you righteous……then I am.

11. If “I AM” says I am……HEALED

He paid the price for our sin – He took upon Himself mankind’s transgressions. “But He was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed. (Isa. 53:3-6). We have had a spiritual healing from sin. We have a pardon and a restoration to the favor of God. The Messiah was scourged; and it was by that scourging that health would be imparted to our souls. Believe what God says. “……by His stripes you ARE HEALED. (1 Peter 2:24)……then I am.

12. If “I AM” says I am……DELIVERED FROM THE CURSE

The curse brought with it sickness and poverty. Poverty is living in lack. You have been delivered from the curse of poverty. (Gal. 3:13) The abundance of God now belongs to you. Blessing and provision are rightfully yours. “Give and it shall be given unto you, pressed down, shaken together and running over.” (Luke 6:38) You can rise up and boldly claim what has been given to you. Poverty can no longer hold you……then I am.

13. If “I AM” says I am……VICTORIOUS

Because He reigns, you now reign with Him in His victory over sin, sickness, fear and poverty. You are “seated together with Christ in the heavenly realm.” (Eph. 2:6) Because His life is now in you, “He always causes you to triumph in Christ.” (2 Cor. 2:13) “You are the head and not the tail.” (Deut. 28: 13) You cannot fail because He cannot fail……then I am.

14. If “I AM” says I am……A CONQUEROR

Now that the life, power and victory of Jesus Christ lives within you, there is no need to fail. A myriad of circumstances will still come against you. However, “In all these you are MORE THAN A CONQUEROR through Him who loves us.” (Rom. 8:37) You can now prove the ability of the Almighty One who indwells you and you can conquer in every one of life’s situations……then I am.

15. If “I AM” says I am……STRONG

The Lord is the Strength of your life. He is even with you. “Let the weak say – I am strong.” (Joel 3:10) “The Lord is the strength of my life – of whom shall I be afraid.” (Psalm 27:1) In the power of His might you are strong……then I am.

16. If “I AM” says I am……ABLE TO DO ALL THINGS

Now that you have His ability, His strength, His wisdom, His resources, abiding within your inner being you can “do all things through Christ who strengthens you.” (Phil. 4:13) In spite of any difficulties, trials, problems or adversities – you can do all things. You are a conqueror, you are an overcomer. You are ABLE……then I am.

SINCE “I AM” SAYS I AM……THEN I AM!
