What do you have?
What was it that redemption offered you when you said "yes" to Jesus?
Do you believe that Jesus gave you so much on the day you accepted Him, or has the reality of what He gave you been gradually stolen by hell's strategic agenda?
It is very easy to become conscious of our physical privileges, relationships, and opportunities that come through our association with certain people. However, it takes intentional training and spiritual growth to walk out of the limitations of the flesh and come to a place where we are conscious of heaven's plans, agenda, and resources—so much so that every aspect of our lives reflects them.
Last week, I walked out of what seemed like another failed interview—not because I failed, but because it appeared to offer no tangible benefit. Yet, I knew the Lord had spoken a word concerning His blessings over my life this year. However, my reality seemed to be projecting the opposite of what God had said.
It is often easier to focus on our pain than on God's promise of healing.
It is easier to declare our weaknesses than to affirm God's strength at work within us.
It is easier to seek help from man than to wait on God's plan and divine agenda.
But God is reminding us today that the very day we said "yes" to Him, we became His responsibility.
Acts 3:6 (God's Word Translation)
"However, Peter said to him, 'I don't have any money, but I'll give you what I do have. Through the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth, walk!'"
The apostles could only give out Jesus because they did not treat Him as a religious experience locked away in the Upper Room. He had become an inseparable part of their daily journey and reality.
So today, instead of counting the things we do not have, let us choose to focus on what redemption has already paid for. Redemption paid for everything we need for life and godliness.
Walk in the consciousness of what Christ has made available to you.
Stay revived in this truth!
