Wisdom wrote in Proverbs chapter 18:

21 Your words are so powerful

    that they will kill or give life,

    and the talkative person will reap the consequences.

​

When we command by faith our provision to come forth, our words promote life.  We release healing to come forth when we command our provision for healing to come forth into the physical realm from the spiritual realm. 

You and I were designed to be healthy and walk in prosperity.  This is FATHER’S Divine Intent which HE determined before we were formed in the womb.  HIS provision allowed for restoration of every aspect of our life in anticipation of our challenges.  In order for manifestation to occur, our mindsets must line up with The Word.  Don’t allow past religious teachings to impede the revelation of provision!

When we understand FATHER’S Love for us, we will realize the motivation behind HIS provision deposited on our behalf.  If we are not receiving, the issue is not with HIM, the issue lies with us and our mindset needs attention.

Jesus spoke in Mark chapter 11:

22 Jesus replied, “Let the faith of God be in you! 23 Listen to the Truth I speak to you: Whoever says to this mountain with great faith and does not doubt, ‘Mountain, be lifted up and thrown into the midst of the sea,’ and believes that what he says will happen, it will be done.”

Jesus specifically tells us that our faith-filled words have power and authority.  We are to command by our words and when we embrace this revelation, we will have no doubt in our hearts.  Notice that Jesus did not tell us to appeal to Our Heavenly Father to deal with the mountain, we are to deal directly with it.  Great faith commands whereas doubt will plead and ask amiss.

Are we going to beg FATHER to do something HE has already provided for, or are we going to enforce the Word to operate and release the provision HE has Lovingly deposited in us?

James recorded by The Holy Spirit in James chapter 4:

7 So then, surrender to God. Stand up to the devil and resist him and he will flee in agony. 8 Move your heart closer and closer to God, and He will come even closer to you. But make sure you cleanse your life, you sinners, and keep your heart pure and stop doubting.

We need to command the devil to depart rather than ask FATHER to make him leave our midst.  We have authority in Jesus’ Name and need to speak it in confidence.  This comes by immersing ourselves in The Word and transforming our mind to become fully aligned with FATHER’S perfect plan, will, and purpose for us.  We need to know our original design and walk in it.  How quickly this occurs is up to each of us individually.  We are to stop doubting!

Faith connects the unseen realm to the physical realm.  Our deposits of provision by FATHER first exist in the unseen Spiritual realm and are then released to the lower physical realm by our faith.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 11:

1 Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen.

Faith alone will bring forth the unseen into the seen.  We don’t need to spend hours begging FATHER to bring forth something HE has already created for our benefit.  We need to embrace our authority and command the unseen to come forth!

Jesus spoke in John chapter 3:

6 For the natural realm only gives birth to things that are natural, but the spiritual realm gives birth to supernatural life!

Which realm are you going to live in?

Both realms are real but the spiritual realm is where provision originates and is the higher realm.  On the other hand, the physical realm is where scarcity exists in this broken world.  We are called to operate in Love and faith to bring forth provision to a world in need.

Jesus further spoke in John chapter 6:

63 “The Holy Spirit is the One Who gives life, that which is of the natural realm is of no help. The Words I speak to you are Spirit and life. But there are still some of you who won’t believe.”

Let us not allow unbelief to prevent us from fully operating in the Spiritual realm.

For the sense and reason of the flesh is death, but the mind-set controlled by the Spirit finds life and peace.

We need to learn how to rest in GOD.  Once we do, we are truly mature in Christ and can operate in a similar manner as Jesus, Our Elder Brother.  For a major shift in our mindset we must immerse ourselves in the Scriptures that address this particular area.  It is vitally important to dwell on these recent writings in order to walk in the fullness of being an overcomer.

FATHER anticipated all of our needs and desires in Christ before we even knew we had a need or desire.  HE created provision before we were even formed in the womb thus HE has no need to respond to some unexpected event of ours.  We simply need to access HIS provision deposited in us.  There is no scarcity in Heaven.  If anything is scarce, people’s faith might be on the list.

Faith draws out of the Spiritual realm what is already been provided for and brings it into physical reality.  The Word provides us the revelation to walk in this manner.  On the other hand, man’s teachings want to convince us of a world where scarcity, sickness and disease, death, and lack are the reality we must deal with in our walk.  Wrong!  Satan wants to steer us away from our provision set aside for us which will deal with every issue we encounter throughout our life.  It is your decision:  Life or death… choose life.

Faith doesn’t move GOD.  FATHER completed all of HIS works and provision prior to our existence thus faith is intended to bring forth HIS provision into the physical in every case, without exception.  FATHER did not have to create food for Adam and Eve to eat.  Instead, they had to access the provision already growing in the garden.  Seedtime and harvest were already existing before FATHER formed them.  HIS creation was already complete!

Adam and Eve had to reach out and take the fruit in order to eat it.  We have to reach out as well.  There is a greater reality beyond our physical senses and it is at a higher level- the Spiritual level.  Those who are not born again and a new creation in Christ are totally blind to this level thus they rely on logic and feelings in walking out their lives.  We must renew our minds in order to fully access all the benefits of the Spiritual realm.  This is where the battle is fought with the adversary.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:

19 I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to you through faith. Then your lives will be an advertisement of this immense power as it works through you! This is the mighty power 20 that was released when God raised Christ from the dead and exalted Him to the place of highest honor and supreme authority in the Heavenly realm!

This passage is critically important to embrace in order to walk in great faith.  We need to grasp the fullness of this revelation.  We need to experience the immense and immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to us through faith.  The Holy Spirit has specifically expressed the Truth that we can and should access this power in our individual walks.  We must fully embrace this revelation if we are to be partakers of HIS Divine Nature in the Spiritual Awakening of FATHER’S Move which is currently at hand.

Faith is not something you do to get GOD to respond.  Faith is your positive response to what GOD has already done.  Be assured that Jesus is not going to take on more stripes or go to the cross a second time.  Once was enough!

Faith only appropriates what GOD has already provided for by grace.  Faith will not provide for an unholy request.  When we walk by Agape Love, we have the assurance of provision from FATHER.

In my early years during the “faith movement”, we were taught the opposite of the revelation I am sharing now.  We were taught that if we confessed a Scripture enough, we could move GOD to respond.  We were told that this was faith and you had people walking around trying to get FATHER to respond.  Obviously most became weary and finally gave up.  There were incidents that would be assigned to this teaching as though these incidents were a result of the teaching.  Wrong!  What were we thinking?

Provision for our healing occurred 2,000 years ago when Jesus took on those stripes.  Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Peter chapter 2:

24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.

“WERE” is the key here.  Jesus provided for all healing at that time thus we need to embrace the provision which is found in the Spiritual realm and appropriate to the physical realm by faith!

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 3^rd John:

2 Beloved friend, I pray that you are prospering in every way and that you continually enjoy good health, just as your soul is prospering.

Let our souls prosper by the renewing of our minds to the revelation of provision.  Additionally, it is recorded by THE SPIRIT in Deuteronomy chapter 8:

18 “And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.”

HIS power awaits our access.  Our faith is proportional to the revelation knowledge of The Word.

Recall what Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Peter chapter 1:

3 Everything we could ever need for life and Godliness has already been deposited in us by HIS Divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing HIM Who has called us by name and invited us to come to HIM through a glorious manifestation of HIS goodness.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:

3 Every Spiritual blessing in the Heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a Love gift from our wonderful Heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because He sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate Him with all our hearts!

4 And in Love He chose us before he laid the foundation of the universe! Because of His great Love, He ordained us, so that we would be seen as Holy in His Eyes with an unstained innocence.

And Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Peter chapter 2:

24 Jesus Himself carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we would be dead to sin and live for righteousness. Our instant healing flowed from his wounding

This occurred 2,000 years ago so we need to embrace our healing already deposited in us by faith.  We don’t need to beg for healing but rather we need to acknowledge what has already been given to us by HIS grace.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 4:

1 Now the promise of entering into God’s rest is still for us today. So we must be extremely careful to ensure that we all embrace the fullness of that promise and not fail to experience it. 2 For we have heard the good news of deliverance just as they did, yet they didn’t join their faith with the Word.  Instead, what they heard didn’t affect them deeply, for they doubted. 3 For those of us who believe, faith activates the promise and we experience the realm of confident rest! For He has said,

“I was grieved with them and made a solemn oath,

    ‘They will not enter into My rest.’ ”

Put another way, “but the Word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.”  Faith is required to enter into rest!

8 Now if this promise of “rest” was fulfilled when Joshua brought the people into the land, God wouldn’t have spoken later of another “rest” yet to come.

9 So we conclude that there is still a full and complete Sabbath-rest waiting for believers to experience. 10 As we enter into God’s faith-rest life we cease from our own works, just as God celebrates his finished works and rests in them.

Rest means that He has ceased from His labor and HE has completed what needed to be established for our benefit.  Our provision has been fully established and accounted for to our benefit and access.  Our provision is perfect and complete.  In response, we do not need to work to get FATHER to do something further but we simply need to access our provision which is already established.

FATHER anticipated ALL our needs and desires and forgot nothing!  Everything FATHER created was intended to perpetuate life indefinitely.  Moses recorded by THE SPIRIT in Genesis chapter 1:

11 Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth”; and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

Does FATHER need to labor each day to replace grass, herbs, trees, etc?  No, HE accounted for the reproducing of life inside the seed thus eliminating a requirement to labor over creation.  FATHER has anticipated everything that could ever happen so we should not concern ourselves about man’s view of overpopulation. 

FATHER is not surprised that there are over seven billion souls on earth so neither should we.  Repairing and purging are built into the environmental equation.  Don’t sweat the dire predictions that this earth will soon become inhabitable.  Focus on entering into the faith-rest walk and fulfilling your purpose.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 2:

7 Throughout the coming ages we will be the visible display of the infinite riches of His grace and kindness, which was showered upon us in Jesus Christ. 8 For by grace you have been saved by faith. Nothing you did could ever earn this salvation, for it was the Love gift from God that brought us to Christ! 9 So no one will ever be able to boast, for salvation is never a reward for good works or human striving.

10 We have become His poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny He has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!

Grace was FATHER’S part, faith is our positive response to HIS grace.  One without the other will not fulfill our destiny.  GOD’S grace came 2,000 years ago before we were formed in the womb therefore we can have no claim to earning HIS grace.  We must focus on walking in faith by Love in order to activate those deposits given to us by HIS grace.  We have to access grace by our faith.

Paul expressed this Truth by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 5:

1 Our faith in Jesus transfers God’s righteousness to us and He now declares us flawless in His eyes. This means we can now enjoy true and lasting peace with God, all because of what our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, has done for us (by HIS Grace). 2 Our faith guarantees us permanent access into this marvelous kindness that has given us a perfect relationship with God. What incredible joy bursts forth within us as we keep on celebrating our hope of experiencing God’s glory!

Faith is not getting FATHER to do some petition which HE may or may not fulfill.  Faith is responding to what HE has already provided for our benefit.  This is why it is so important to receive the revelation and enlightenment on what deposits are on the inside of us already.  FATHER’S Divine Intent is not based on some new petition submitted by us.  HE fully anticipated our needs and desires prior to us being formed in the womb.  The adversary would have us believe the opposite so don’t get caught in his snare.

Faith only appropriates what FATHER has provided by HIS grace.  The word appropriate means: To set apart for, or assign to a particular use, in exclusion of all other uses.  FATHER has specifically given each of us a provision for our individual vision.  HE is not going to give us something other than that provision so we need to gain revelation of what is contained in the provision and respond in faith.

If we are expecting something outside our specific provision, it is a soulish expectation.  This is why we need to be transformed by the renewing of our mind.  As we are fully led by THE SPIRIT, our faith will only expect the provision which has been placed on deposit within us and we will be fully satisfied with its manifestation. 

FATHER has anticipated our every need throughout our life and provided for the solution to fully satisfy the need.  We simply need to access the solution deposited on the inside of us and bring forth the manifestation by faith.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 4:

1 Now the promise of entering into God’s rest is still for us today. So we must be extremely careful to ensure that we all embrace the fullness of that promise and not fail to experience it. 2 For we have heard the good news of deliverance just as they did, yet they didn’t join their faith with the Word. Instead, what they heard didn’t affect them deeply, for they doubted. 3 For those of us who believe, faith activates the promise and we experience the realm of confident rest! For He has said,

“I was grieved with them and made a solemn oath,

    ‘They will not enter into My rest.’ ”

God’s works have all been completed from the foundation of the world, 4 for it says in the Scriptures,

And on the seventh day God rested from all His works.

5 And again, as stated before,

They will not enter into My rest.

6 Those who first heard the good news of deliverance failed to enter into that realm of faith’s rest because of their unbelieving hearts. Yet the fact remains that we still have the opportunity to enter into the faith-rest life and experience the fulfillment of the promise! 7 For God still has ordained a day for us to enter into called “Today.” For it was long afterwards that God repeated it in David’s words,

“If only today you would listen to His voice

    and do not harden your hearts!”

8 Now if this promise of “rest” was fulfilled when Joshua brought the people into the land, God wouldn’t have spoken later of another “rest” yet to come. 9 So we conclude that there is still a full and complete Sabbath-rest waiting for believers to experience. 10 As we enter into God’s faith-rest life we cease from our own works, just as God celebrates his finished works and rests in them. 11 So then we must be eager to experience this faith-rest life, so that no one falls short by following the same pattern of doubt and unbelief.

When we fully understand FATHER’S grace which only requires us to respond by faith, we will enter into the faith-rest life.  We don’t need to struggle any longer once we get the revelation of what has been deposited within us awaiting activation by our faith.  Let us join in FATHER’S celebration of our eyes being opened to this revelation of the faith-rest life!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 2:

1 And His fullness fills you, even though you were once like corpses, dead in your sins and offenses. 2 It wasn’t that long ago that you lived in the religion, customs, and values of this world, obeying the dark ruler of the earthly realm who fills the atmosphere with his authority, and works diligently in the hearts of those who are disobedient to the Truth of God. 3 The corruption that was in us from birth was expressed through the deeds and desires of our self-life. We lived by whatever natural cravings and thoughts our minds dictated, living as rebellious children subject to God’s wrath like everyone else.

What Paul explains in the above passage, pretty well sums it up in the current environment… but even to a greater degree.  The world is trying its best to eliminate Truth and even make It illegal! (The bill HR5 in the U.S Congress is intended to do this very thing. See https://stophr5.com/ ).

4 But God still loved us with such great Love. He is so rich in compassion and mercy. 5 Even when we were dead and doomed in our many sins, He united us into the very life of Christ and saved us by His wonderful grace! 6 He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with Him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as One with Christ!

7 Throughout the coming ages we will be the visible display of the infinite riches of His grace and kindness, which was showered upon us in Jesus Christ. 8 For by grace you have been saved by faith. Nothing you did could ever earn this salvation, for it was the Love gift from God that brought us to Christ! 9 So no one will ever be able to boast, for salvation is never a reward for good works or human striving.

10 We have become his poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny He has given each of us (Psalm 139:16), for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!

FATHER has made the sufficient deposits in us already.  We already have the provisions for the visions residing on the inside of us awaiting activation by us, not HIM!  These Scriptures should excite our faith to a greater level.  As we understand the true revelation of what we have, our appreciation for HIS Love grows on the inside of us to a higher level of fruitfulness.  We look at the lost in a different manner and our compassion toward the lost is no different than that of Jesus.  AS HE IS, SO ARE WE!

We didn’t earn these deposits but FATHER gave us these resources by HIS Love and grace.  It was all in HIS plan when HE wrote our books in Heaven.  These deposits are HIS gifts to us so that we can not only fellowship with HIM but also effectively represent HIM to the world.

Grace is unearned, undeserved, and unearned favor thus you and I did not earn grace.  It is a gift from FATHER before we were formed in the womb.  By HIS grace, HE sent Jesus to redeem us from our fallen state.  Paul expressed this by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 5:

8 But Christ proved God’s passionate Love for us by dying in our place while we were still lost and ungodly!

9 And there is still much more to say of his unfailing Love for us! For through the blood of Jesus we have heard the powerful declaration, “You are now righteous in my sight.” And because of the sacrifice of Jesus, you will never experience the wrath of God. 10 So if while we were still enemies, God fully reconciled us to Himself through the death of his Son, then something greater than friendship is ours. Now that we are at peace with God, and because we share in His resurrection life, how much more we will be rescued from sin’s dominion!

11 And even more than that, we overflow with triumphant joy in our new relationship of living reconciled to God—all because of Jesus Christ!

17 Death once held us in its grip, and by the blunder of one man, death reigned as king over humanity. But now, how much more are we held in the grip of grace and continue reigning as kings in life, enjoying our regal freedom through the gift of perfect righteousness in the one and only Jesus, the Messiah!

How are we to reign as “kings in life”?  We are to access our deposits given to us by FATHER’S grace!  Do not accept a life as a pauper but instead rise up in the revelation of who you are in Christ.  Now is the time!

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st John chapter 4:

16 We have come into an intimate experience with God’s Love, and we trust in the Love he has for us.

GOD is Love! Those who are living in Love are living in God, and God lives through them. 17 By living in God, Love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.

Our spirits are fully mature and there is no need for them to grow.  The problem lies with our minds and bodies.  All the deposits to our spirits have been made and await our access.  If our minds are not renewed, then we don’t know what has been made available to us by Our Heavenly Father.  If our flesh is living an unholy life, those deposits will stay inactive.

We need to trust in those Heavenly deposits and have faith that we can walk in them.  Let us revisit the story where the lame man was healed.

Luke wrote by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 3:

1 Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. 2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered the temple; 3 who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for alms. 4 And fixing his eyes on him, with John, Peter said, “Look at us.” 5 So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

6 Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” 7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. 8 So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them—walking, leaping, and praising God.

Peter had the revelation of what had been deposited in him by FATHER and he accessed it when he ministered healing to the lame man!  He did so without reluctance.  Jesus surely explained these deposits when He taught the disciples for forty days after His resurrection in Acts chapter 1:

1 The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 until the day in which He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, 3 to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.

Jesus prepared them for the ministry and how The Holy Spirit would come and live inside them.  They were endued with power and authority from on High and those deposits were not only for them but were placed in us as well when we made Jesus Lord and Savior… and received The Holy Spirit to indwell in us.  AS JESUS IS, SO ARE WE!  Peter understood this when he boldly said to the lame man “Rise up and walk!”

Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Peter chapter 1:

13 So then, prepare your hearts and minds for action! Stay alert and fix your hope firmly on the marvelous grace that is coming to you. For when Jesus Christ is unveiled, a greater measure of grace will be released to you. 14 As God’s obedient children, never again shape your lives by the desires that you followed when you didn’t know better. 15 Instead, shape your lives to become like the Holy One who called you. 16 For Scripture says:

“You are to be Holy, because I am Holy.”

Peter addresses both the mind and the body in the above passage.  When Jesus Christ is unveiled, greater grace will be released in our walk.  When something is unveiled, it is already there, we simply did not see it until the unveiling occurred. 

These latest writings are intended to unveil the deposits that need to be released in our individual walks.  Don’t delay in pursuing this revelation for it is paramount to FATHER’S current move on the earth. 

As Sons and Daughters, we need to release the flow of HIS Grace to a dying world.  The spigot needs to be opened and it is done by you and me.  FATHER is at rest, Jesus is sitting next to HIM at rest, and The Holy Spirit wants each of us to fulfill FATHER’S Divine Intent HE wrote in our books before we were formed in the womb.

The angels are ready to be dispatched once our deposits are fully activated and used by us in Love toward mankind.  Let our faith be known as great faith rather than little or no faith (aka unbelief).

In times past, I heard much teaching which I thought was revelation only to find that it was mixed with religious views and based on man’s understanding.  Even though the five-fold ministry was probably sincere, often they were sincerely wrong.  My eyes needed to be enlightened by The Holy Spirit and I needed to quit assuming the teachers were correct in their understanding and interpretation of passages.  In the end, I am accountable, not them.

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st John chapter 4:

16 We have come into an intimate experience with God’s Love, and we trust in the Love he has for us.

GOD is Love! Those who are living in Love are living in God, and God lives through them. 17 By living in God, Love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.

Notice that the verb brought is past tense, not future tense.  It has already taken place in us and this is critical to receiving the revelation of who we are NOW in Christ, not will be!  Religious teachings move us into the future as though we are waiting for FATHER to do something in order for us to walk in power and authority. 

Our prayers were often pleading with FATHER to do something when HE already has done it.  HE is waiting on us to have faith in the Word HE has already given.  Many of us have been asking amiss because of the past teachings we received.  BUT NOW IS THE TIME to correct our understanding and be transformed by the renewing of our minds.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Philemon chapter 1:

4 I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers, 5 hearing of your Love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, 6 that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.

Every good thing is already in us thus we are not waiting on FATHER to do something in order for us to become effective.  Our ineffectiveness is due to our lack of understanding of what is inside of us now.  The deposits have been made and waiting on us to walk in faith concerning those existing deposits of power and authority.  You can be sure the adversary does not want this revelation to come forth now.

Additionally, Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1 and take note of the tense of the verbs:

3 Every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a love gift from our wonderful heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because he sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate Him with all our hearts!

4 And in Love He chose us before he laid the foundation of the universe![e] Because of His great Love, He ordained us, so that we would be seen as Holy in His Eyes with an unstained innocence.

5–6 For it was always in his perfect plan to adopt us as his delightful children, through our union with Jesus, the Anointed One, so that His tremendous Love that cascades over us would glorify his grace—for the same Love He has for the Beloved, Jesus, He has for us. And this unfolding plan brings Him great pleasure!

7 Since we are now joined to Christ, we have been given the treasures of redemption by His blood—the total cancellation of our sins—all because of the cascading riches of His grace. 8 This superabundant grace is already powerfully working in us, releasing all forms of Wisdom and practical understanding. 9 And through the revelation of the Anointed One, He unveiled His secret desires to us—the hidden mystery of his long-range plan, which He was delighted to implement from the very beginning of time. 10 And because of God’s unfailing purpose, this detailed plan will reign supreme through every period of time until the fulfillment of all the ages finally reaches its climax—when God makes all things new in all of heaven and earth through Jesus Christ.

11 Through our union with Christ we too have been claimed by God as His own inheritance. Before we were even born, He gave us our destiny; that we would fulfill the plan of God Who always accomplishes every purpose and plan in His Heart. 12 God’s purpose was that we Jews, who were the first to long for the messianic hope, would be the first to believe in the Anointed One and bring great praise and glory to God!

13 And because of Him, when you who are not Jews heard the revelation of Truth, you believed in the wonderful news of salvation. Now we have been stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit.

Then Paul prayed:

18 I pray that the light of God will illuminate the eyes of your imagination, flooding you with light, until you experience the full revelation of the hope of His calling—that is, the wealth of God’s glorious inheritances that He finds in us, His Holy ones!

19 I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to you through faith. Then your lives will be an advertisement of this immense power as it works through you! This is the mighty power 20 that was released when God raised Christ from the dead and exalted Him to the place of highest honor and supreme authority in the Heavenly realm!

As I wrote yesterday:

We are vital to FATHER’S long-range plan and since He has unveiled the mystery of the power in us ready for full activation, our prayer and expectation should be:

FATHER, help me learn how to release and use this power YOU have already placed in me!  Let me be an advertisement to the world who are looking for Truth and Love to operate in their lives.  Let them see YOUR Love in action as the power and authority flow through me to minister life, restoration, and healing to all.

In Jesus Name,

Amen!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 12:

2 Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes.

Religious teaching is full of man’s opinions of what the Scripture says and most often is based on observation rather than revelation.  We must overcome past religious teaching which has been ineffectual.  Our mindsets must change!

Most believers are waiting on FATHER to do something but the reality is that FATHER is waiting on us to allow HIS power to flow through us.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Philemon chapter 1:

4 I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers, 5 hearing of your Love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, 6 that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.

It is up to me to release what is inside of me deposited by FATHER through Jesus Christ.  Every good thing is already inside of me waiting to be accessed and activated by me, not FATHER.

Do farmers pray for their seeds to receive something beyond what is already in them to produce fruit?  No, they plant the seed and wait for the activation of life which is already in the seed.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 13:

5 Don’t be obsessed with money but live content with what you have, for you always have God’s presence. For hasn’t HE promised you,

“I will never leave you, never! And I will not loosen MY grip on your life!”

FATHER has not left you and me but instead dwells inside of us and HIS power awaits our revelation to access what is already there.  We don’t need to ask FATHER to fulfill our need, we need to believe what HE has already done and exercise our faith for its manifestation in our lives.  Our mindset must shift to this reality and do away with past religious teachings that would suggest FATHER may or may not answer our prayers.

Additionally, Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 3:

20 Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. HE will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination!  HE will outdo them all, for HIS miraculous power constantly energizes you.

Peter affirmed this Truth by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Peter chapter 1:

3 Everything we could ever need for life and Godliness has already been deposited in us by HIS Divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing Him who has called us by name and invited us to come to Him through a glorious manifestation of His goodness. 4 As a result of this, HE has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises we can experience partnership with the Divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world.

FATHER, help me learn how to release and use this power YOU have placed in me!  Let me be an advertisement to the world who are looking for Truth and Love to operate in their lives.  Let them see YOUR Love in action as the power and authority flow through me to minister life and restoration to all.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:

8 This superabundant grace is already powerfully working in us, releasing all forms of Wisdom and practical understanding. 9 And through the revelation of the Anointed One, He unveiled His secret desires to us—the hidden mystery of His long-range plan, which He was delighted to implement from the very beginning of time. 10 And because of God’s unfailing purpose, this detailed plan will reign supreme.

We are vital to His long-range plan and He has unveiled the mystery of the power in us ready for full activation!

Another Testimony of our financial assistance to those in need:

I would just like to say…Thank You for the Crest and Wal Mart Gifts cards – they helped me out for groceries at these hard times and helped with gas.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Corinthians chapter 9:

6 Here’s my point. A stingy sower will reap a meager harvest, but the one who sows from a generous spirit will reap an abundant harvest. 7 Let giving flow from your heart, not from a sense of religious duty. Let it spring up freely from the joy of giving—all because God Loves hilarious generosity! 8 Yes, God is more than ready to overwhelm you with every form of grace, so that you will have more than enough of everything—every moment and in every way. HE will make you overflow with abundance in every good thing you do. 9 Just as the Scriptures say about the one who trusts in HIM:

Because he has sown extravagantly and given to the poor,

    his kindness and generous deeds will never be forgotten. (Psalm 112:9)

10 This generous God who supplies abundant seed for the farmer, which becomes bread for our meals, is even more extravagant toward you. First HE supplies every need, plus more. Then HE multiplies the seed as you sow it, so that the harvest of your generosity will grow. 11 You will be abundantly enriched in every way as you give generously on every occasion, for when we take your gifts to those in need, it causes many to give thanks to God.

As we cheerfully give to others in Love, we should have the expectation of the above passage to apply to us.  We are FATHER’S boots on the ground and should expect to reap a harvest for our cheerful giving.  As HE abundantly blesses us, we are able to increase our assistance to others so that no one is forgotten.

Words we speak are of the utmost importance and those words should come from being led by The Holy Spirit and not out of the soulish realm.

King David wrote by The Holy Spirit in the Book of Psalms chapter 139:

23 GOD, I invite YOUR searching gaze into my heart.

    Examine me through and through;

    find out everything that may be hidden within me.

    Put me to the test and sift through all my anxious cares.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 4:

12 For the Word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.

Our spirit is where GOD dwells but our soul is where the mind, will, and emotions can bring forth anxious cares.  If you are dealing with anxiety, yield to The Holy Spirit and allow Him to remove those anxious cares so that you can focus on being led by THE SPIRIT.

Nothing is hidden from The Holy Spirit Who dwells inside of us so let us seek His Wisdom in dealing with the cares of the world.  After all, they are temporary in nature and do not deserve the time and energy we often give them.  The cares of the world are meant to distract us from our individual callings and keep us unfruitful.

My spirit knows that I am GOD’S child and FATHER wants me to fully yield to my spirit so that HE can lead me into all Truth and the fulfillment of my calling.  This applies to you as well.

Paul also wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:

14 The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit. 15 And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as HE rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, “Beloved Father!” 16 For the Holy Spirit makes God’s Fatherhood real to us as he whispers into our innermost being, “You are God’s Beloved Child!”

As a Beloved Son or Daughter, we should have no anxious cares plaguing us at any time.  Instead, we should be living with the confidence that Our Heavenly Father is constantly looking out for our best interest no matter what circumstances are presented before us in our daily walk. 

The adversary does not want us to embrace our Sonship.  Why?  There is power and authority to be manifested from within us when we truly know who we are in Christ.

17 And since we are HIS true Children, we qualify to share all HIS treasures, for indeed, we are heirs of God himself. And since we are joined to Christ, we also inherit all that HE is and all that HE has. We will experience being co-glorified with Him provided that we accept his sufferings as our own.

As we are willing to yield and live a crucified life, we are also yielding to the true treasures deposited within each of us.  This includes the power and authority to manifest a life with even greater fruit than that of Our Elder Brother.  Let us yield to The Holy Spirit and allow Him to search, examine, and sift through all aspects of our hearts.  Who better to examine us than ONE WHO is motivated by Unconditional Love!
