We’re living in a day when all we’re hearing from the world is talk of what we don’t have, used to have, would like to have or should have. In the midst of this “lack-speak,” It’s very important to take stock of what you DO have. If you are a child of God, then you know you have Jesus Christ living in you, which means ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!
Jesus will walk with you and give you the hope you need. Jeremiah 29:11 says, “’For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”
The unsaved world is not interested in our sermons, but they ARE interested in a Christ who will get involved in their individual lives. Introduce them to that Jesus!
Can you visualize the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead not only upon you, but according to Romans chapter 8:11, now indwelling you and giving life to every part of your physical body?
Jesus is not only with the Christian but He is IN the Christian; yet many are full of fears and worries, gloom and doom—waiting for a bail out by something bigger or “better.” Only when you know and understand Who is both with you and in you, will you will rise to the new levels of confidence to walk in the position of authority you have been given!
When Jesus called Lazarus forth out of that tomb in John chapter 11, He said to the people, “Unwrap him and let him go.” Why is this important? Because many of us still wear the “clothes” of bondage to sin, sickness, disease, lack, fear, etc. But you and I have not only been brought back to life, we have been unwrapped and set free, and transitioned into a new kingdom where we now have the authority to change things!
The devil has stolen the inheritance of the Body of Christ and is holding it without rightful ownership. Only when you as a believer rise up in your faith to take it back will he be forced to give it back to you. That’s why it is so important to study the Word of God, it’s the “reading of the will” where you discover what is now yours!
My friend, your future is in your hands. God has already cast His vote for you. He paid for it all. He believes in you, and when you are born again He comes to live IN you to see your miracle come to pass. He had a plan and picture of your destiny from the foundation of the earth. Your faith decision mixed with His wonderful, unmerited, undeserved favor will bring it to pass. It’s NOT based on what life throws at you, and THE DEVIL CANNOT STOP YOU!
What do you see in the midst of what’s going on in your world? What do you hear in the midst of a sickness, or a problem or something that’s coming against you? What do you see and what do you hear? How big have you allowed God’s Word to be inside you?
When we know who Jesus is, we know who we are. And when we know who we are, we know what we can do. This is why mountains, obstacles, troubles, and anything else that keeps us from being the best that God made us to be can be removed when we speak!
