Delivered
When I say the word DELIVER, what do you see? What do you think? What comes to your mind? Before I even look at the dictionary, what comes to my mind is being taken out of a place that I don’t like, a place that is bad for me, into a place that is good. And I think about the fact that when I am delivered, I don’t have to go back to the place from which I was delivered.
Let’s look at the dictionary definition of DELIVER from the 1828 Webster’s Dictionary.
To free, to release, as from restraint, to set at liberty
To rescue, to save
To give, or transfer; to put into another’s hand or power; to pass from one to another
DELIVERANCE means:
Release from captivity, slavery, oppression, or any restraint
Rescue from danger or any evil
The act of giving or transferring from one to another
In Psalm 107:1,2 we read:
O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endures forever.
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy.
In the Amplified Bible we read:
O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever.
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has delivered from the hand of the adversary.
Redeem means to liberate or rescue from captivity or bondage. An adversary is an enemy.
Do you see this? God’s dearly beloved Son Jesus liberated us from the bondage of satan, our enemy. We were in captivity to him and now we have been delivered. We are free. We must fix this truth so fully in our minds and hearts that we know that we are in a different place, a different kingdom. We have been taken out of satan’s kingdom and are no longer his subjects. We are royal subjects of a royal king and His name is Jesus. We are in a compound so to speak in the spirit realm where no foe can reach us with anything he has. And that compound is surrounded by security guards called angels. That compound is fixed; the circumference of it is faith and love. As long as we exercise our faith in God’s deliverance of us, then we stay in that realm of safety. We live in this world where satan is forever attempting to break down the walls of our faith and gain entrance. But he can’t gain entrance unless we open our mouths and start speaking contrary to our deliverance.
Look at Colossians 1:13,14
We are told right here that the Father has delivered us out of the dominion of darkness and has transferred us into the Kingdom of His Son, in whom we have redemption (deliverance).
Look at Hebrews 2:14,15
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
Look what Jesus and the Father have done for us. We are delivered from satan, death, fear, bondage, darkness, and all that the kingdom of darkness has---sickness, disease, pain, poverty, want, lack, oppression, depression, spiritual death. In other words, as Galatians 3:13 and 14 state: We have been delivered from the curse of the law. All of these things are under the curse of the law. All we have to do is look at Deuteronomy 28 and we see what the curse of the law is. Well, our dear Savior has redeemed us, delivered us from all of that. See yourself living out what is in the pages of your Bible. Yes, it applies to you. Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father above in whom there is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. In other words, God is the same always, yesterday, today and forever.
Say this after me:
I am delivered from the power, control, dominion, domain of darkness, satan, death, fear, bondage, and all that the kingdom of darkness has.
I have been transferred into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son, Jesus Christ, the Kingdom of love, righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
I am redeemed through the blood of Jesus.
I have been set free.
I am no longer subject to satan and his kingdom of darkness.
I am not a subject of satan.
I am a subject of Almighty God, subject to Him and living in His Kingdom.
My life is established, fixed in God’s kingdom forever.
