He’s Given Us Everything! by Joagbaje(m): 7:43am On Oct 15, 2013 |
. . . .Therefore, let no man glory in men. For all things are yours 1 Corinthians 3:21 How wonderful the Lord is! He doesn’t withhold any good thing from us. The truth is, He’s given us everything. Ephesians 1:3 says, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with ALL spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ." He’s already blessed us. God isn’t going to give you anything more than He’s already given you in Christ. Think about it: He’s given you the Spirit without measure; there couldn’t be anything better than that! John 3:34 says, "For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him." Then, in John 20:21, the Lord Jesus said to the disciples, just before He ascended into heaven , "...as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you" (John 20:21) . This means that Jesus has sent us the same way He was sent of the Father; and He’s given us the Spirit without measure also (Acts 2:4). This is so awesome. You don’t need to look out anymore, craving "more" blessings from God, having already received the fullness of the Spirit. You have everything in Him. When we talk about walking in the fullness of His blessings, it doesn’t refer to God giving you more; because He’s already given you all there is. However, as you follow the principles of God’s Word, you enter into greater levels of what He’s already made available to you; not that God will make any effort to give you something more. He already gave us everything that is necessary for life and godliness: "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue" (2 Peter 1:3). Observe that it says, "through the knowledge" (Greek: epignosis) of Him"; that means full and accurate knowledge of God. The more we know Him, the more we enjoy that which we know about Him. It’s important that you get to know Him through the Word, and know all that He’s already made available to you in Christ to enjoy them. |

Joagbaje, you did not mention that there is a hidden clause o! Joagbaje: ......but you can only access this blessing after paying your tithe, first fruit and sowing seeds ![]() Your blessings already locked up in a vault (with your name on it) in heaven and the passwords to the vault reads t-i-t-h-e ![]() |

Zikkyy: Joagbaje, you did not mention that there is a hidden clause o! I appreciate you ability to complete it. There's no hidden clause to God blessing us. The blessing is in our accounts But we must sign our checks and withdraw by faith action it's Not just in tithe , there are several act of faith that cause different graces to abound for us to lay hold on our inheritance . Why do you pray? Why can't God just do things for you? See what I mean. Why do you study? Because knowledge of the word carries its own grace Acts 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. |
