Dear Sisters and Brothers in Jesus the Christ,

“Every God-begotten person conquers the world’s ways. The conquering power that brings the world to its knees is our faith. The person who wins out over the world’s ways is simply the one who believes Jesus is the Son of God.” 1 John 5:4-5 (MSG)

We have the victory because we have the Written Word – the Word of God (Isaiah 55:8-11), the Living Word – the Lord Jesus (John 1:14), and the Living Water – the Holy Spirit (John 7:37-39). Therefore, the decision-making process of the God-begotten person by the redemptive work of Christ Jesus, who are citizens of the Kingdom of God makes manifest by the Word of God revealed through the Holy Spirit. For a significant number read the Word of God with no revelation or understanding. 

“11 The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you but not to them. . . . 13 Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand. 14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving. 15 For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.” Matthew 13:11-15 (NIV); Isaiah 6:9-10

Revelation knowledge is through the Holy Spirit who is given to each person rendered sons & daughters of YHWH (with inserted vowels YAHWEH transliterated JEHOVAH, commonly interpreted the LORD) by the finished work of Christ Jesus. For the New Covenant ratified by the blood of Jesus that reconciled us to GOD also sealed us with the Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 1:22); He is in each person who believe on Him that the Gospel sets forth (Mark 16:16 [AMP]); He is the Comforter, Counselor, and Teacher who reminds us of all things JESUS (John 14:26).

“By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us because He has given us of His Spirit.” 1 John 4:13 (NKJV)

The Holy Spirit is the persona of The Anointing within each son & daughter of The One who is Omniscient and Omnipresent and Omnipotent. The Anointing is God’s power within because due to Adam’s free-will decision contrary to the advice of God (Genesis 2:16-17 & 3:1-6) we aren’t able to beat the perpetrator of evil – the thief that only comes to steal and kill and destroy (John 10:10a) by our own volition but we are enabled by the power of God within (Ephesians 1:19 & 3:20), and the authority entrusted to bind on earth what is bound in Heaven and loose on earth what is loosed in Heaven (Matthew 18:18; Mark 16:17). Jesus is Lord because He walked in perfect obedience to the will of God the Father on behalf of all mankind (Romans 5:17-19), even unto death (Philippians 2:6-11); He defeated satan at the Cross (Colossians 1:15), and now holds the keys of death & Hades (Revelation 1:18).
