TRANSACTION OF THE CROSS — APOSTLE MICHAEL OROKPO
The Cross was not just a scene of martyrdom; it was a Supreme Legal Transaction executed in the courts of heaven. It was the moment where the "Debt Note" of humanity was settled in full through the currency of Divine Blood. On that tree, a cosmic exchange took place: your sin was traded for His righteousness, your poverty for His riches, and your death for His life. This was not a negotiation; it was a Judgment where Justice was satisfied so that Mercy could be released. "He wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us... having nailed it to the cross" (Colossians 2:14).
To understand the transaction, you must see the Cross as the Altar of Substitution. Jesus was not dying for His own sins; He was standing as You. When He cried, "It is finished," He was announcing that the "Receipt of Redemption" had been issued. There is no longer any legal ground for the enemy to accuse you or hold you in bo***ge. Apostle Joshua Selman often explains that "Redemption is a legal reality that must be turned into a vital experience through faith." If you don't know the terms of the transaction, you will continue to pay for debts that have already been settled.
The Fathers of the Faith, like Kenneth E. Hagin, built their entire lives on this legal reality. They understood that if Jesus bore our sicknesses, then we don't have to bear them. If He was made a curse, then we are permanently under the blessing. This "Legal Consciousness" is what produces the "Commanding Anointing." You don't ask God to forgive you or heal you as if He hasn't done it; you receive and enforce the transaction that was completed 2,000 years ago. You are not a "sinner saved by grace" trying to get to heaven; you are a Legally Justified Son exercising your rights on earth.
Therefore, you must stop living as a spiritual debtor. If the debt was nailed to the Cross, why are you still carrying the guilt? Why are you still submitting to the "requirements" of the enemy? Study the "Receipt" (The Word) and learn what was bought for you. Your peace, your health, and your prosperity were all "pre-paid" at Calvary. Walk in the boldness of a man whose bills have been cleared by the King Himself. The Transaction is final, and the Case is closed!
Say a short prayer:
Father, I thank You for the Transaction of the Cross; I refuse to pay for what Jesus has already paid for, and I step into my full inheritance as a justified son, in Jesus' name.
