For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, eso, though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might be rich (2 corintios 8:9)
Jesus in all His riches left heaven and came to the earth, in the likeness of man, to fulfill God’s redemptive plan for fallen mankind. Jesus came to heal (restaurar, mak whole again) y reconciliar al hombre con Dios. So that we might be rich through His poverty. Although Jesus was fully Man when He came to the earth, Jesus didn’t walk after the flesh in the kingdom of darkness, but Jesus walked after the Spirit in the riches of the Kingdom of His Father.
Jesus became poor
Jesus was sent by the Father to the earth and walked in the Name of His Father and was filled with the Holy Spirit and represented, Predicó, and brought the Kingdom of God on earth.
The ‘term’ poor refers not to physical poverty. Because during His life on earth, Jesus didn’t lack a thing. His Father always took care of Him and provided for His needs. But it refers to the spiritual poverty of mankind.
Hombre caído; El pecador, is carnal and trapped in a body and can only live after the flesh, since the spirit of fallen man is death. Hombre caído, who is also called the old man is separated from God and subject to the spirits of this world.
When did Jesus become spiritually poor? Jesus became poor at the whipping post and on the cross.
At those moments, Jesus submitted Himself and the devil and his demons took authority over Him through people.
En el puesto de azotes, Jesus took all our infirmities and sicknesses upon Him. Jesus was brutally beaten and tortured until there was almost no skin left.
Although Jesus had the ability to stop them, because Jesus could have prayed to His Father, Who would have given Him more than twelve legions of angels, Jesus didn’t do that.
Jesus didn’t do anything to stop them, because the Scriptures had to be fulfilled.
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to My Father, y pronto me dará más de doce legiones de ángeles? Pero, ¿cómo se cumplirán las Escrituras?, que así debe ser? (Mateo 26:53-54)
Jesus walked the way of poverty
Jesus stayed obedient to God the Father and His words. Therefore Jesus allowed them to take Him captive and endured the whipping at the whipping post and the crucifixion.
And so Jesus walked the way of poverty; He laid down all His authority; all His spiritual riches for us. Por eso, you don’t have to go the way of poverty, but you can walk in the way of riches.
After the whipping post, Jesus took up His cross and walked to the place of Calvary, where Jesus would be crucified.
When Jesus was crucified and hung at the cross (tree), Jesus took all our sins and iniquities upon Him. When Jesus carried all our sins and iniquities, the Father left Jesus, because God can’t have communion with sin (Leer también: ‘El verdadero significado de la cruz.').
En ese momento, when the Father left Jesus, Jesus was the poorest. But Jesus stayed faithful to His Father and persevered and accomplished the plan of God, so that we could become rich through His poverty.
Rico a través de su pobreza
Pero todos los que le recibieron, a ellos les dio poder para ser hijos de Dios, incluso a los que creen en Su Nombre: que nacieron, no de sangre, ni de la voluntad de la carne, ni de la voluntad del hombre, pero de dios (John 1:12-13)
You have become rich through His poverty! Debido a lagrace of God the Father, you have been given power to become a son of God.
By the blood of Jesus and through regeneration, you are reconciled to God and have been made a new creation; hijo de Dios.

You have entered the Kingdom of God through regeneration and you have been given the Name above all names; el Nombre de Jesucristo and you have been given the Holy Spirit of God, quien permanece en ti.
Therefore you have the same position, autoridad, and power as Jesus Christ. Sí, even greater, because Jesus went to the Father.
En verdad, en verdad, te digo, El que cree en mí, las obras que yo hago, él también las hará; y mayores obras que éstas hará; porque voy a Mi Padre. Y todo lo que pidiereis en Mi Nombre, que haré yo, para que el Padre sea glorificado en el Hijo. Si pidiereis algo en Mi Nombre, I will do it (John 14:12-14).
We are seated in Jesus Christ
pero dios, quien es rico en misericordia, por su gran amor con que nos amó, Incluso cuando estábamos muertos en pecados, nos ha vivificado juntamente con Cristo, (por gracia sois salvos;) Y nos ha levantado juntos, y nos hizo sentarnos juntos en los lugares celestiales con Cristo Jesús: Para que en los siglos venideros pueda mostrar las abundantes riquezas de su gracia en su bondad para con nosotros en Cristo Jesús. (Efesios 2:4-7)
We are sentado en Jesucristo at the right hand of the Father and have been given in Him the inheritance; all the riches; all authority and power in heaven and on earth.
A través del sacrificio de Jesús, you can have a life in abundance. You have been made rich, when you were filled with the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ; the Word dwells in you.
It’s not about money and material possessions, but it’s about the Holy Spirit, Whom you have received in Jesus Christ. It’s about the place and the authority you have been given in Jesus Christ and the power you have received in Him from the Father.
You have been given the Holy Spirit, so that you will be able to fulfill the mandamientos de jesucristo and represent the Kingdom of God on earth and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and bring the Kingdom of God to the people, so that they also might be saved and enter the Kingdom of God through regeneration and receive the grace and the riches of God.
You are precious to Him, He showed you His love. Jesus gave up all His riches and became (espiritual) poor for you, so that you could be rich in Him. Now you can live in Him and have the same life as Jesus Christ on earth. Sin embargo, It will cost you everything, but it’s absolutely worth it! (Leer también: ‘Seguir a Jesús te costará todo!).
Jesus has shown His love for you. Ahora, you can show Jesus your love, Al quedarse obediente to Him and His commandments, and do what Jesus has commanded you to do. You can show Him your love, by glorifying and exalting Him and the Father through your works.
