"I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective and powerful because of your accurate knowledge of every good thing which is ours in Christ." (Philemon 1:6)
Faith is now. What do I mean by this? Faith does not operate based on a status, promise or expectation, past or future. It is based on whatever is, in Christ Jesus, right now. In other words, if it is in Christ Jesus, and Christ Jesus abides in you because you are born again, then that thing is available to you, right now.
The process by which your faith is operable is a process that Paul in his letter to Philemon calls", acknowledging"[for readers of the King James versions]. This acknowledging happens via the process of meditation. It entails speaking the accurate knowledge about the moment or season you have been placed in until it orients you and other elements in your world for action. You recall the word of God that you have received and you begin to stir up your pure minds with it by way of faith proclamations, using personalized and possessive pronouns.
2 Peter 3:1-2 says, "Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior." In other words, as you stir up your minds, for example, with Psalm 75:6-7, specific steps to take to bring about the promotions and expansions that are already in you in Christ Jesus, start to become apparent.
The reason why some believers feel confused or distraught after they receive a powerful word is this. They are not acknowledging or meditating on the word they received. The ones who meditates on and acknowledges accurately the word of God for them in Christ, Jesus describes as, "...these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.”
For the believer, there is nothing in the sweet-bye-and-bye to cause you to abdicate your rights and privileges. 1 Corinthians 3:21,23 says, "Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours...And you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s." The only connection you have with the sweet-bye-and-bye is that you get to reign with the Lord Jesus in the Millennium.
Get to know all these things that the Bible says are yours by studying the scriptures. Too many believers leave too much on the table of life because of ignorance or nice-sounding devilish doctrines that keep them from their present -hour resources in Christ Jesus. Don't wait anymore. You can walk out of sickness, lack and defeat, this very moment and it happens as you acknowledge everything that God has put inside of you through Christ Jesus.
Have a fantastic day !
Faith-Filled Confession
My faith is operative by my acknowledgment of every good thing that is in me in Christ Jesus. I have promotions and expansions in me today and I bring them forth by my pronouncements in Jesus' name. Hallelujah !
Prayer Direction
Pray against any attempt of hell to entice the brethren to undermine the promotions and expansions in their lives. Ask that they continue to walk in the fullness of the grace and anointing for this season.
Declare that we have all things ready for DAY OF BLISS program and we are marvelously helped of God. Declare that our brethren are inspired by the Spirit of God to give of themself in ensuring that every of their invitees are present for the program.
Act 10:38 says, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him”. Isaiah 33:24 (NIV) says, “No one living in Zion will say, ”I am ill…”
Pray for those who are sick, that they receive the good news of divine healing and health in Christ; God’s grace and mercy extended to them for quick recovery and perfection, as the healing power of Christ is manifested in their bodies during this program.
Pray specially for Christians experiencing various health challenges; that their faith be strengthened as they hear the Word and the reality of divine health, which we have in Christ, would become their consciousness and vital experience.
