You are His Righteousness. That gives you access to the Throne at any time. You can stand in His presence just as Jesus did in His earth walk, because Jesus is your Righteousness. There can be no event so great but what His Wisdom and His Righteousness will enable you to meet it successfully. You see, when you become the Righteousness of God, that really makes you a Master of Circumstances. That lets you into the Inner Circle. That gives you the advantage of the Father’s Wisdom and Ability to put you over.
Satan cannot cope with the man who knows he is the Righteousness of God in Christ, who knows that Jesus has been made unto him Wisdom. That man is a Master man. You see, that leads you into the Superman Realm. Take account of stock for a moment. You have God’s very Nature in you. The old life that kept you in bondage has stopped being. The old self that was dominated by circumstances and by Satan has stopped being, and a New Self, a dominant Self, a Righteous Self, a God-filled Self has taken its place. You now have a legal right to the use of Jesus’ Name. Before the Master ascended, you remember He said in Matt. 28:18, “All authority has been given unto me in heaven and on earth.” That authority is for the Members of the Body. Jesus doesn’t need it. He and the Father are one, so all that the Father is, Jesus is. This authority was given to the Church. The ability to use that authority is given to us in the Holy Spirit. We not only have this authority, but we have the great Mighty Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead dwelling in us, and when He came into us, He brought all His Ability, the Ability that He exercised in the resurrection of the Master, the Ability that He exercised in Christ. It is all in Him. No wonder John said by the Spirit, in John 4:4, “Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.”
You see, we are dominant people. We have the creative Ability of God in us. No limit to where we can go. It is not only these abilities, but there are other abilities that are ours. “Of His fullness have we received.” Perhaps among the most important assets that we have is the new kind of Love. Jesus brought it into the world. When we are Recreated, that new kind of Love becomes our Nature. We become partakers of the Divine Nature, for the Father is Love. When that Love Nature comes in, it brings an element into a man that makes him a Master. When a man loses his temper, the person that caused him to lose his temper is superior to him in some way. He wouldn’t lose his temper if that person hadn’t outwitted him, out-generalled him in some way. Love makes us impervious to these influences, makes us a Master of them. We rise up in God, that is, we rise up in Love; we walk in Love; we live in Love, and that makes us Masters of every person that does not walk in Love. The unpleasant things that he does or says, we know are said by an inferior. Love never becomes irritated. Love never loses its poise; never loses its temper. It is Master of itself, and that makes it Master of every person outside of Love. This Jesus nature makes you a dominant personality, a Master personality. They can’t conquer you any more than they could conquer Christ. They may stone you; they may beat you; they may, because of numbers, take you captive, but you become their Master the moment you become their captive. It is a strange fact, but it is true. His Love Nature makes you a Master.
I want you to learn to believe in Love. I want you to learn to rest in it, to depend on it, to expect great things from it. You will not be disappointed. You remember that passage, “Ye are of God my little children.” That is I John 4:4, and then in John 3:5-8 Jesus said, “Except a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh.” Then He says another startling thing: “That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” Well, then you do not belong to the old order of things. You belong to this New Family, this new condition. You are a partaker of the Divine Nature. You are in the realm of Life with God, and you reign as a king in this realm of Life. You are a Master. What makes you a Master? The very nature of the Father that has come into you. This Love gift has made you superior to everything surrounding you.
