Take Possession
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)
Being born again, you’ve been given a life of
glory and success. Some Christians don’t
realize this, and are therefore hoping and praying
that God will do something more that’ll better their
lives. There’s nothing more the Lord needs to do than
He already did for you in Christ. He’s already done
everything necessary for your total well-being and
prosperity. He’s done everything for you to live in
righteousness, dominion, and power.
If, for example, you’ve been praying, “Lord, give
me peace,” stop it! He already gave you peace. He
said in John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you, my peace
I give unto you….” There’s really nothing for you to ask
Him for anymore; read our opening scripture again.
What you need today is to take possession of the
blessings He’s already made available to you. Take
advantage of what He’s already done. 1 Corinthians
3:21 says “…all things are yours….” But 2 Peter 1:2
gives us the clue to how you can enjoy them. It says,
“…through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus
our Lord.” Grace, peace, promotion, blessings, and
prosperity will be multiplied in your life through the
knowledge of God, and of Jesus, our Lord.
Notice that the scripture directs your attention
to revelation knowledge through the Word (Greek—
“epignosis”)! That’s what you need; the specialized
knowledge that comes to you through study and
meditation on the Word.
Through this special knowledge of God, and of
Jesus Christ, not only are you acquainted with your
rights, privileges, blessings and inheritance in Christ,
you’re catapulted to the realm where you walk in the
vital reality of the full blessings of the Gospel. Blessed
be God!
Confession
Thanks be unto God who has blessed me with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places in Christ! I have a life of glory and
success, and I win every day. My spiritual eyes are enlightened to
recognize and apprehend the great riches of God’s glorious
inheritance in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
