By THE SPIRIT, It is written in Psalm 65:
9 YOU visit the earth and water it, YOU greatly enrich it; the river of God is full of water;
YOU provide their grain, for so YOU have prepared it.
10 YOU water its ridges abundantly, YOU settle its furrows;
YOU make it soft with showers, YOU bless its growth.
11 YOU crown the year with YOUR goodness, and YOUR paths drip with abundance.
12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, and the little hills rejoice on every side.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain;
They shout for joy, they also sing.
Our Heavenly Father is THE PROVIDER of goodness and abundance for IN HIM there is no lack or scarcity. HE is the Source of all increase, addition, and multiplication. The adversary only promotes scarcity, subtraction, and division. What is prevailing in your life? In whom are you in agreement? Are you finances failing? Is your health an issue? Is life simply “picking” on you? The issue isn’t with Our Heavenly Father, the issue is found in the mirror and we must repent if we are persistently in lack. I can always tell when I have been lulled away from FATHER’S provision. During these times I stop, reassess, and focus on HIS Word in the area where I am missing it. Yes, it has happened more than once.
We need to be in agreement with The Word of Our Heavenly Father rather than those around us who are living in a faithless manner. Is the news media getting you down? Quit listening and watching their evil report. Each of us is responsible for what we see and hear. Man will try to sway our opinion to line up with their bias rather than simply reporting the Truth. FATHER is the Author of all Truth so let us focus our attention on His Word and HIS Voice. As a result, we will set the right expectation for our life.
How many of us have simply accepted the failure, sickness, or lack in our life? How can we be in unity with FATHER if we don’t develop our faith in the area of need? Healing is one of HIS promises. Blessing and prosperity come by HIM and though HIM. Yes, I know the prosperity message has been wrongly taught in the past but does that make FATHER’S Word of none effect? It does if you disregard those promises meant to build up your faith in the area of prosperity. When you seek those blessings with a foundation of Love, there is no issue. If you seek the same blessings only to promote “self”, there is a major issue. Intent is the determining factor. We must not rationalize our lack by past misuse and abuse of HIS Word.
Paul spoke by THE SPIRIT in Ephesians chapter 4:
1 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called,
2 with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,
3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling;
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
6 one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
How can each of us fulfill our individual calling if we lack the resources needed? Would FATHER expect us to succeed if we lack those resources required for our success? We must get over the mindset of being subject to our circumstances and expect FATHER to bring forth anything we need to fulfill what HE has ordained us to do in this life. I have written in the past concerning the Law of seedtime and harvest. If you have yet to planted any seed then you probably don’t believe the Word in this area. Your faith has not been increased because you are afraid of failure. We have all been there. Act on The Word and exercise your faith in HIS Word and doubt not in your heart. In order to succeed we must set the right expectation and should base our expectation knowing that FATHER is watching over HIS Word to perform it.
FATHER spoke to Abraham (at the age of 75) in Genesis chapter 12:
1 Now the LORD had said to Abram:
“Get out of your country, from your family
And from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you.
2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Blessing is the nature of FATHER. Is FATHER’S willingness to bless any less today than it was back then? Does age matter to HIM? We must set ourselves in agreement with FATHER and expect HIM to supply all our need according to HIS riches, not our current circumstances. Let us this day begin setting the right expectation and be in agreement with FATHER’S Divine Intent toward us… be determined!
