2 Corinthians 1:20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
Jesus was made to be sin for me, though he himself was sinless, that I might BE MADE the VERY RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD--IN HIM. That means I can stand in God's presence as if I never sinned. Jesus suffered rejection and condemnation and wrath in his soul so that I might enjoy a rich fellowship with God
my father. It's an insult to the finished work of Christ to continue to believe the accusations of the enemy that I am anything other than loved-accepted and favored by God. I am treasured by God-desired and wanted or Jesus would have never paid such a great price for my soul to have the peace that innocence brings.

I am complete In Christ who is the head of all principality and power. My circumcision was made without hands. It was the circumcision of my heart by the Spirit of God.

1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
The Holy Ghost is the anointing in me. He is the Great Teacher and teaches me all things. He teaches me the deep hidden truths in the Word of God. He teaches me a a way that I can understand and overcome every obstacle that comes in my life. I let his truths abide in me and refuse thiughts contrary to what he teaches me. We walk together in harmony and I reast in his truth.
