Are we there yet?
Most of us, spend our entire lives trying to get everyone to say yes to the things we want to do in life and from life. When were young we learn our parents strengths and weaknesses and how to manipulate, or play them against one another to get what we want.
Some of us are really good at it, some not so much. Some people will go to great lengths to get the desired result of the word yes!
You got your way, you got a loan, you got the part in the play! She or he said yes to spending the rest of their life with you. What were they thinking?
Yes is the desired result everyone wants to hear, but not always what everyone wants to say. How many times have you heard someone say, I need to learn how to say no?
Because responding with a yes, usually means action or labor will be required to back up the response of yes!
How many times have you heard if you want something done ask a busy person to do it? Because they always find the time to fit the task into their busy schedule, right?
This line of thinking, seems like it would be a great fit for a spiritually minded person.
But more often then not, a persons reasoning and expectations from God become altered, when dealing with their own needs concerning spiritual matters.
This doesn’t affect everyone else’s needs and Gods ability to work in their lives, only their own life!
If you are willing to say yes to the things of God, God is willing to say yes to you! God doesn’t have to be manipulated to get your desired result.
I would even add, every time Gods willingness to respond is with a better answer and solution for your need, than your expectation!
God wants you to come to Him with your needs, wants and desires feeling entitled to receive His best ability to deliver in your situation, each and every time you come!
Because if you have a relationship with His Son Jesus as Lord and Saviour, YOU ARE ENTITLED! This is a truth and a promise, guaranteed in and by the Cross and the infallible Word of God!
So as a believer, you and I could be and are entitled to all of the benefits and promises, God has promised you, delivered by Jesus, Completed and Finished Work!!
2nd Corinthians 1:20-22 NKJ.
20. For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.
21. Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God,
22. who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.
The MSG. says I this way,
20-22. Whatever God has promised gets stamped with the Yes of Jesus. In him, this is what we preach and pray, the great Amen, God's Yes and our Yes together, gloriously evident. God affirms us, making us a sure thing in Christ, putting his Yes within us. By his Spirit he has stamped us with his eternal pledge—a sure beginning of what he is destined to complete.
Yes, there will be complete completion in the bye and bye! But let us never lose sight of the fact, Gods word completes its assignment each and everyday and has never stopped doing so from day one!
Psalm 107:17-22 MSG
Some of you were sick because you’d lived a bad life,
your bodies feeling the effects of your sin;
You couldn’t stand the sight of food,
so miserable you thought you’d be better off dead.
Then you called out to God in your desperate condition;
he got you out in the nick of time.
He spoke the word that healed you,
that pulled you back from the brink of death.
So thank God for his marvelous love,
for his miracle mercy to the children he loves;
Offer thanksgiving sacrifices,
tell the world what he’s done—sing it out!
God’s response each and everyday is yes! He’s not a maybe tomorrow kind of God of wait and see! God is a God of yes and amen of right now at this very moment!
Isaiah 53:5 NKJ
But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
We are what? You see we don’t have to continually ask God to heal our bodies, like it’s a futuristic event! Our healing already happened! God already said yes to our request!
Instead of continually asking God to heal us, we need to start acting and realize we already have been healed!
It’s not like in the car and we’ve all heard, when a little child says daddy are we there yet! WE ARE ALREADY THERE! We may not realize it, but we already are in the position to receive what has been done for us, whether we realize it or not!
TBS. Jesus Healed them all
Luke 4:40 NKJ
40 When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them.
Healing has already been deposited in our spiritual bank account in an unlimited amount, ready to be drawn on the moment of need presents itself!
Our prayer of faith, should be not a plea for healing, but a proclamation of faith we have already been healed, because we have!
The lying devil will say no, but Gods Word has already overridden the devils lies with YES AND AMEN!
Gods Word never, let me say it again “GODS WORD NEVER EVER” stops completing its given assignment! Gods Word constantly is searching for and making itself available for meeting every need of His children!
He sent His Word, and healed their disease! He is the Lord our healer!
And TBS. He is always faithful to complete the work He starts, Praise God!
“always faithful” not sometimes faithful, but always faithful!
So many times, we hear God’s tremendous word like this with our ears, but not with our hearts! When your heart gets a hold of a promise, that’s when it becomes real to you!
Whatever God has promised gets stamped with the Yes of Jesus! And brother let me tell you, that’s as real as it gets! Praise God!!
Will the accuser try to steal this word from you? Maybe from your head knowledge, but never from your heart! Write this healing truth on the tablet of your heart and don’t ever let go! Amen?
Don’t be afraid of the accuser! Take the God given authority you already have, rebuke the accuser and remind him of some accurate history!
Say with authority...devil...Jesus already defeated you and everything you represent to threaten me with, you have no power over me!
You see, the bible doesn’t say every believer except for you, is entitled to Jesus Grace and God’s Promises.
TBS. and I quote “For all the promises of God in Him,
(now were talking about Jesus Grace and Unmerited Favor right here in unlimited supply, child of God this is for you!)
“For all the promises of God in Him,
are Yes, (are what?) Are Yes and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.”
That means you!….I want you to say it out loud right now….That means me!….Say it, That means me!! Give God Praise!!
Listen up, if you call yourself a child of God! At some point in time you’re gonna have to get familiar, and begin to become cozy with your inheritance or you are never going to realize the benefits your inheritance wants and desires to bring you!
But you say, I don’t feel like it is! Listen with your heart and not your head!
Is your healing or your deliverance dependent upon your ability to feel something, or the ability of the One who created you, who wrote your DNA and genetic code with His own finger, which also flung the stars and planets into space and breathed life into all of us!
Stop thinking for one moment and realize the enormity of what God has given to you! And for that matter, has given to all of us every man, woman and child who has ever walked and will ever walk into the World He created!
*Quit trying to feel anything,
*Quit trying to be more than you’re capable of,
*Quit trying to see everything in the natural,
*Quit trying to figure things out!
Take yourself out of the equation all together,
You may not know, exactly what God is up to, but one thing you can be sure of, He is constantly working and has never stopped working behind the scenes on your behalf.
Psalms 121:1-4 NKJ.
1. I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
2. My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.
3. He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4. Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
God is more than capable of meeting every need you will ever have!
There’s a song to sing in this situation, there’s always a song to sing in every situation, Because words and music towards God, equals praise and our praise TBS.(the bible says) is what God inhabits! Praise God!!
Every promise in the book is mine
Every chapter, every verse and every line
All are blessings of His love divine
Every promise in the book is mine
By His stripes, the book says I'm healed
Until the day of redemption
The book say's I've been sealed
(According to the same book)
To prosper and be in health is right in line
Every promise in the book is mine
(By the sensational nightingales)
1 Corinthians 3:21-22 NKJ
"Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours: whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours."
This is another confirming word from the Bible, stating the fact God is holding nothing back from us! God wants the best for His Children, God wants us to have it all.
It doesn’t get any clearer,
*the things of the world can’t get it done for you,
*your family can’t do it for you,
*your efforts, are not getting things done for you,
*But God says, whatever you need done, I have already provided for and met your need!
And when you trust God and depend on your relationship with Jesus instead of yourself, all things, I repeat ALL THINGS, are possible!
There is nothing , I repeat...”There is Nothing whatsoever God wants to withhold from you!” Every promise in the Book is yours child of God, grab ahold of and don’t ever let go of the promises!
1 Corinthians 3:21-22 NKJ
"Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours: whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours."
Begin to act like the Blessed child of God you are! Not the one you up until this point, thought you were. But for the Blessed, miracle receiving entitled child of God you are!
The time has come for you to take ownership of your inheritance! Your inheritance includes every promise in the book and each and every blessing stemming from each and every promise! Jesus has already not someday will, but has already delivered!
Amen?
