Already Transferred

“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.”

Colossians 1:13 · NKJV

Both verbs are past tense. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love. Delivered. Conveyed. This is not your itinerary. It is your history. The move already happened.

Many believers live like refugees at the border, hoping to be let in someday if their paperwork holds. Paul says the relocation is complete. You are not applying for citizenship in the kingdom. You are living in it, right now, as a beloved son or daughter.

Darkness can still shout, but it no longer governs. Its power over you was broken the moment God moved you. You live in the kingdom of the Son of His love, and love is the law of the land.

You have already been transferred into the kingdom of the Son. Live like a citizen, not an applicant.
