YOU MUST KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU CARRY
“And lo a voice from heaven, saying, this is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”.Matthew 3:17 KJVGod desires that you walk by revelation. He desires you walk in the revelation of who you are and what you carry. So, God the Father gave His Son – Jesus the revelation of His identity. Likewise, God wants you to have a revelation of who you are and what you carry. Notice before Jesus did anything, the Father had shown Him His identity. So, by the time the devil came and said: “if thou be the Son of God”, he was too late. Jesus simply said: Go and sit down, I don’t need to do anything. I know what I carry.Child of God, you need to come to the realization that you are loaded! There is no way you won’t make it in life. You have been declared a winner. You have been declared more than conqueror. You can never lose that battle. The outcome of the war has already been determined. You are the winner. Things will turn around for your good because of who you are and what you carry. In Christ, all things have become new. Therefore, things shall be rearranged in your favour. You are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise. The reason it looks as if it is not working is that many of us have refused to grow up.According to the scripture: “Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all”. (Galatians 4:1 KJV). Though you have it all, there will be no difference in your life if you refuse to take responsibility for your faith. This is why the need to grow up comes to fore. If you remain a child, you will not be able to lay claim to your inheritance.You must arise and possess your possession. Refuse to be satisfied with crumbs. You are bigger than that! Don’t look for sympathy! You cannot be the lowest when the Highest is your Father.Further Reading: John 14:12-14, Romans 5:12-17Daily Bible Reading: Morning- Psalms 70-71; Evening- Romans 8:22-39
