Acts 17:11-12

  1. Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily, to see whether these things were so. NASB

Acts 17:11

11 Now these [Jews] were better disposed and more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they were entirely ready and accepted and welcomed the message [concerning the attainment through Christ of eternal salvation in the kingdom of God] with inclination of mind and eagerness, searching and examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.  AMP

Isa 34:16

  1. Search the book of the Lord and see all that he will do; not one detail will he miss; not one kite will be there without a mate, for the Lord has said it, and his Spirit will make it all come true. TLB

If our primary focus is to recruit members into our church working teams, they are to go through the baptismal class and get baptized before they could join. Even if it is only very few that will be able to attain the level of joy in baptism, it should rather be because of divine benefit and revelation for their elevation in the BODY OF CHRIST JESUS. We should all stand up to allow people to understand the basic and deeper knowledge of the covenant of baptism into death in Christ Jesus rather than our Churches.

When you get born again, confess Christ as your LORD and savior, baptize into his death then another step in higher grace is released which leads you to seat with him in the heavenly realm. Although people can still see us in the earthly but the fact is, we are seated with Christ Jesus always. Be conscious of the revelation.

Eph 2:6b

“…and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: kjv

We should begin to operate in the consciousness of who we are even when things get tough, our confession is our possession e.g. I’m seated in the heavenly realm in Christ Jesus, I am not allowed to submit to any situation in which I am greater and higher than, I refuse to agree with my sight because I can see all things working for my good, etc.

God always expects us to declare positive words into the heavenly realm where we are seated in Christ Jesus. It manifests in the earth realm where we operate on behalf of Christ Jesus. In the next chapter, I will talk about the newness of life in Christ Jesus.

Actually, we have submitted all to him since the day we got buried with Him in baptism and he has released his power to bless us and transformed our lives. Every citizen of a nation benefits a hundred percent of all things from his or her nation. If they find themselves in any nation, the embassy is responsible to them in case they need any assistance from the mother nation. Even the resident nation still speaks on their behalf in the interest of the nation. We are the citizens of heaven, our privilege and benefit are greater than any of the earthly citizens.
