Holy Access

Sunday 11 December
READ: Matt.4:1-10
MORE LESSONS: Psa.24:7-10

Of all the sense organs of the human system, the loss of sight for me is the most traumatic, especially for the blind that once saw. You lose the beauty of colours, scenery and God's blue sky and deep blue sea. The blind man has no access to anywhere except by aid. In our Christian journey, we are empowered to have access to God every moment of the day for as long as we are correctly connected to Him.
Any time we are disconnected from God, satan takes advantage to lure us into ungodly acts. In our passage for today, satan wanted to give Jesus an unholy access. In Matt.4:9, satan told Jesus- ...all these things will I give you, if you will fall down and worship me…. Did Jesus say He didn't have them? When Jesus wanted to answer, did He say satan lied and that he was not the owner of all the glory on the face of the earth? No, He left it for another day to pay back. After He died on the Cross of Calvary, the Bible says the veil of the holy of holies tore open, providing a holy access. Jesus then followed up to hell to take back from satan the very key he ceased from Adam in order to release the saints that were held captive from the days of old (Psa.24:7). No wonder the Bible says when Jesus resurrected, in the city of Jerusalem they saw the saints that died walking on the streets (Matt.27:51-52). People identified them. The glory that satan said was his own and he needed Jesus to worship him for a lease, Jesus went down to hell and got it from satan by the instrumentality of His shed blood. The moment He died on the cross of Calvary and paid the price, He walked up to satan and said, I have paid the price.
When a man pays for a product, the product goes home with him. Jesus got to the gate of hell and said “I have properties inside” and He began to quote the Scripture. In verse 7 of our second passage. Ye everlasting doors, symbolise all benefits that are shut against your destiny in their large numbers. I command the everlasting doors to be lifted that the King of glory may come in. If you want your destiny to open, open the door. Your success is at the door. Your breakthrough is at the door. Your glory is at the door. The manifestation of God is at the door, your children are at the door, your financial manifestation is at the door, just waiting for you to say, be ye lifted, ye everlasting doors.

Prayer/Action
* Give thanks to God for all that Jesus has accomplished for you.
* Claim all your benefits of health, success, victory, access and breakthrough that Jesus has gotten for you.
* Declare that satan will not get access to your life, home and destiny, in Jesus’ name.
