Acknowledge what has already been given!
Philemon 6 (NKJV)
That the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
This powerful little verse found in the book of Philemon reveals to us that the sharing (living out) of our faith is dramatically affected by the acknowledgment (taking time to acknowledge) of every good thing that is now present in you in Christ Jesus, as we daily consider and discover His divine potential and power already resident within the temple of our lives the realization of this is what will certainly make you think differently about the life you live and take you to a whole new level.
In fact it is the acknowledging of “every good thing” that God has put in you through Jesus that causes true effectiveness in every single part of who you are, what did we get placed in us through Christ? That’s a very good question and it would take a very long list to answer! Here are a few of the many things that we need to be so grateful for:
Abundance of Grace – Has come to us through Jesus
The gift of righteousness – Is ours because of Jesus
Forgiveness, Healing & divine health
Faith and Hope
New Life and freedom from condemnation
Restored innocence
Love, power and a sound mind
The list really could go on and on!
Oh that you may fully understand all that you have already received in and through Christ Jesus your Lord, start today to release and see manifested more of what he has already deposited in you, how ? You guessed it by faith! By acknowledging (coming into agreement with) what He has given as revealed in His word and by thanking him for these things by faith, faith is the divine phone call that activates whatever God gives and has already given.
Let’s stop begging him for more and take a moment to realize and acknowledge what we already have.
Have a fantastic weekend,
Andy
