The Mix

Hebrews 11:33-34 “Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions. Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight….” (KJV)

 

Why don’t we see the full spectrum of Sõzõ in people’s lives? The first reason is Ignorance, and the second reason is Brokenness; the generational wickedness or brokenness of the world is perpetrated in those lives. Sometimes, it has nothing to do with you. For instance, someone else driving recklessly can hit your brand-new car. It is not because you have a curse on you. It is simply someone else’s problem that you now have to deal with, Read the rest of this entry

In It

Galatians 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” (KJV).

 

Yesterday, we began to look at the first of three reasons why people do not see and experience the full spectrum of Sõzõ. And the first reason is Ignorance. Ephesians 4:18 “They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.” (NIV). Hardness of heart brings about spiritual blindness Read the rest of this entry

Revelation Light

Ephesians 4:18 “They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.” (NIV).

 

Why don’t we see the full spectrum of Sõzõ in our lives? Why are some saved but not delivered? The same masquerade that flogged their grandfather, flogged their father, is now flogging them. The truth is that when you get saved what should happen is, that masquerade should run when it gets to you. Listen, Read the rest of this entry

Faithful & Just

1 John 1:8-9 “If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.” (emphasis added).

 

God wants us to look back at the cross and embrace the work that Jesus did on the cross of Calvary. We look at the cross, we are not seeking for Jesus to shed His blood again. We are looking at the cross from a place of victory. That is why Isaiah says in Read the rest of this entry

The Cross

1 Peter 2:24-25 “He personally carried the load of our sins in his own body when he died on the cross so that we can be finished with sin and live a good life from now on. For his wounds have healed ours!” (LB)

 

Sõzõ is a fundamental concept that every believer needs to understand to have a meaningful walk with God. The concept of salvation and saving is consistent from the beginning to the end of the scriptures. Man always gets into trouble, so we need a saviour. The first trouble man got into Read the rest of this entry

Full Option

Isaiah 35:4 “Say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, and do not fear, for your God is coming to destroy your enemies. He is coming to save you.” (emphasis added).

 

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (KJV, emphasis added). Sõzõ! Whosoever means whosoever. What an assurance. I want to tell you a story, it is a popular story, and you probably have heard it before. But every time I think about the story it always blesses me. Read the rest of this entry

Complete Package

1 Peter 1:18-20 “For you know that God paid a ransom to save you… It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. God chose him as your ransom long before the world began, but now in these last days he has been revealed for your sake.”

 

We will delve deeper into Acts 4:8-12 scripture to explain the concept of Sõzõ further. Acts 4:8-12 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers and elders of our people, are we being questioned today because we’ve done a good deed for a crippled man? Do you want to know how he was healed Read the rest of this entry

Ransomed

1 Peter 1:18-19 “For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.”

 

Sõzõ means to redeem. To redeem means to pay a ransom for. You are a lawful captive, okay? You went into the problem yourself, okay? You sold yourself to the devil, okay? Yet God says, ‘I will pay for you, I will buy you back’ – Sõzõ! If this Word is planted in your heart, even when our parents take us to places and dedicate us to altars, Read the rest of this entry

Full Spectrum

Isaiah 35:3-4 “With this news, strengthen those who have tired hands and encourage those who have weak knees. Say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, and do not fear, for your God is coming to destroy your enemies. He is coming to save you.”

 

Matthew 15:26-27 “Jesus responded, “It isn’t right to take food from the children and throw it to the dogs.” She replied, “That’s true, Lord, but even dogs are allowed to eat the scraps that fall beneath their masters’ table.” What was the woman saying? Read the rest of this entry

The Gospel

1 John 4:9 “In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.”

 

Today, we will begin by expanding on a few things we touched on yesterday. Sõzõ is an all-encompassing word. However, if you just look at it from the meaning save, you will struggle because you will not see the fullness of what it means to be saved, or what it means wherever the word Sõzõ is used.
