"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline." (2Tim 1:7).
The new man is not ruled by fear neither is he coward. He is brave and full of faith. He is the heir of God, a ruler of the cosmos, a mighty commander, one that gives an order and the whole universe must obey. He is a terror to the powers of hell. When he walks in, darkness gives way, darkness cannot stand his presence. He is a consuming fear, iniquity cannot withstand him. The new man is a member of the Lion of the tribe of Judah. He fear nothing, but commands fear from his enemies.
"I will send my terror ahead of you and create panic among all the people whose lands you invade. I will make all your enemies turn and run." (Exo 23:27).
The new man is designed to be a terror unto the enemies. Immediately he steps into their midst, they are thrown into panic. What power dare stand before him and not shiver? Demon dare not argue with him, just one word of command and they flee immediately (see the life of Jesus and how he casted out demons). The new man is exactly like Jesus, he is one with Christ. He is very witty, he cannot be cornered or outsmarted. You cannot trap him with human wisdom, he is far beyond that. And no matter how cunning and intelligent you are, you cannot outwit him. His wisdom and power is not of this world, it is Christ himself.
"The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all" (John 3:31).
"But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere" (James 3:17).
"Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God." (1Cor 1:24)
Christ is the wisdom of the new man, the wisdom from above, the superior wisdom. Everything about this new man is superior to that which is earthly, for this man is from above and that which is from above is greater. As a result of the immense greatness of the power and wisdom he wield there is no problem or challenges he cannot overcome so effortlessly. This man is designed to be an overcomer. God had every challenges in mind when he was designing him, and he design him to be able to overcome them all. The new man is an overcomer by design.
"For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." (1John 5:4).
"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world." (1John 4:4).
The new man is not trying to be an overcomer, he is already an overcomer by design. The greatness that lives in him has already qualified him as an overcomer, for there is nothing that can withstand such greatness. This man cannot be intimidated by anything, rather he faces all things with great resolve and courage. He is a mighty warrior, the kind that puts a thousand to flight (Due 32:30). This new man is who you are in this Land.
