“All power is Given unto Me in Heaven and in Earth” [podcast]

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20

There’s a notable difference between Jesus and the false religionists. Nothing has changed. There’s power in the lives of those who are crucified with Christ because there’s power in Jesus and His Word! He said that “ALL power” has been given into His hands and that He bestows it upon His witnesses! (See Matthew 28:18-20.)

“And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.” Matthew 7:28-29 

“All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth” ~Jesus 

“ALL power” is in Jesus Christ and therefore “ALL things are yours.” (Matthew 28:18-20; 1 Corinthians 3:21) “ALL power” from Heaven is available to the disciple of Jesus in fulfilling the mission He came to accomplish. Like Jesus, can we yet say “I MUST be about my Father’s business”? See Luke 2:49

In context, when Jesus says “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth,” our LORD is speaking in terms of being used powerfully in making Him known to others, in being possessed with the same mission and power, and divine authority in His Name as He came with and perfectly fulfilled – to serve Him and others and not ourselves.

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20

Why, for what purpose did Jesus inform us that “ALL power” is given to Him?

• To teach all peoples His Word, His ways (v19)
• To water baptize them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost (v19)
• To teach them His Word (v20)

IF God is your Father, if you are His, “ALL things are yours” (1 Corinthians 3:21). With this truth in mind, please tell Him what you have need of! – simply “ASK and ye shall receive” (Matthew 7:7).  Ask Him beloved and Jesus Christ, the Great Intercessor at the Father’s right hand, will see that it’s answered! “ALL power is given unto me in heaven and in earth” is invested in the name, the authority, the divine Person of the LORD Jesus Christ – who was crucified for our sins, defeated death, hell, the grave, and Satan! See Matthew 28:18-20.

“The veil of the temple was rent in twain”

Through Christ’s perfect sacrifice, the veil was rent in two, the curtain has been flung wide back, and the floodgates of God’s blessings were opened.

“And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. 38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.” Mark 15:37-38

The Full Assurance of Faith – Hebrews 10:19-23

“19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20  By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21  And having an high priest over the house of God;
22  Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23  Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)”

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” Psalms 126:5-6

This fallen world has never more needed Christ’s laborers, empowered by His invested divine authority, as they do now.

  “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3 Prayer is inseparably connected with knowing God (John 17:3). “But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” Matthew 6:33 “A sinning man stops praying. A praying man stops sinning.” – Leonard Ravenhill “And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into […]

The Supremacy of Jesus Christ [podcast]

Do We Have Time to Learn More About the LORD Jesus today, OR, are We Just looking for Yet Another Quick Fix, Self-Serving Feel-Good Message like so many professing Christians today? The modern church is too busy to study Christ Himself because they’re too busy trying to use Him to get what they want. Let that soak in as you remember how long it’s been since you’ve heard a message specifically about Heaven’s King. Most modern “pastors” probably don’t even know what the word Christology means. God created us to know Him and yet, such doesn’t happen without the recipient […]
