It is amazing to realize that, through His universal travelling in His ascension, Christ let as captives those who had been taken captive by Satan and made them gifts to His Body; He descended from heaven, descended to Hades, was raised to the earth, and ascended to the third heavens, and by His universal […]

Being Imprisoned in Christ to Live Christ for the Reality of the Body of Christ
For us to live Christ for the reality of the Body of Christ for us to be imprisoned in Christ as a prisoner of Christ Jesus, a prisoner in the Lord, an ambassador in chain, a captive of Christ scattering His fragrance. This is what Paul was, and this is is what we should be […]

In His Ascension the Victorious Christ Led Captives as Sons of God in the Heavenlies
In His ascension the victorious Christ led captive those taken captive, and He led a train of captives to the height. This is very wonderful yet so mysterious. Christ fought the spiritual warfare since His incarnation through His human living, His death, and His resurrection, and now even in His ascension He still fights the […]

Jacob’s Prophesying with Blessing: Judah, a type of Christ as the Ultimate Overcomer
Jacob prophesied with blessing concerning his sons; according to the Old Testament, the twelve sons of Jacob are arranged in four groups of three. Jacob’s speaking concerning Reuben, Simeon, and Levi was not so positive: they didn’t receive the blessing but were rather scattered and even judged because of their disposition and actions. Their history […]

being the captives of Christ in His triumphal procession scattering His fragrance
In our experience we all have to admit that many times Christ is captive to us, and we “defeat Christ” by living in our natural man, in our flesh, and guided by our self. We may not have problems with sin or with the world, but the question is, Who is Whose Captive? This is why we all need to pray, Lord, make me Your captive – never let me win! Defeat me all the time! The Lord doesn’t need “spiritual giants” but He needs little captives, those who have been defeated by Christ and who are subdued by Him. We need to cooperate with the Lord’s defeating work by praying in such a way, so that He may have a gateway to enter in and defeat us all the time. [continue reading online]

in His ascension Christ led us as captives to the Father and received us as gifts to the Body!
We are gifts produced by Christ’s descending and ascending – He defeated us and took us with Him as vanquished foes, He presented us to the Father, and the Father gave us as gifts for the building up of His dwelling place. But God did not “stop travelling” – He is still travelling within us! Christ is bringing God into us and bringing us into God – by descending and ascending in us and making us gifts to the Body of Christ!

but we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellency of power may be of God and not out of us
Last night we were praying over Matt. 6:20-21 regarding the treasure and our heart – where our treasure is, there will our heart be also: 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not dig through nor steal. 21 For where your treasure is, […]
