This message is a continuation of yesterday’s message.
We are talking about the privileges that our heavenly Father gives us as His chosen people:
1. God gave us a privilege as His children.
Use our mouths to speak the Word, God’s promises and every statement of the Spirit as a privilege that God has given us.
2. There is a strict guard from the Kingdom of Heaven.
Our lives are guarded in such a way by the Father, the Host of the universe, so that we don’t need to be afraid and worried about anything or situation.
Distress, accidents, illness and even death will be spared from us who believe in Him.
3. God provides training as a team that will rule together with the Father.
Everything that happens in our life is a process of training to equip us so that we are ready to reign with Him.
2 Timothy 2:1-6 (NKJV) You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. You therefore must endure[a] hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier. And also if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. The hardworking farmer must be first to partake of the crops.
2 Timothy 2:12 (NKJV) If we endure, we shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us.
If we persevere in training our spiritual man according to the anointing or guidance that the Holy Spirit works in our lives then we will also reign with God in the midst of this world.
Build our attitude and mentality also train ourselves by conditioning ourselves like a soldier, who always focuses on the duties and orders of his commander (no worrying about our lives), like an athlete who consistently trains to compete following the rules correctly and focuses on breaking his own ‘record’ (there is progressivity, potential development, and so on), and like a farmer who is tenacious and patient, works hard until it produces results and enjoys the harvest.
These are some of the Father’s blessings that He has provided for us His children. Let’s make sure our hearts are always fixed on and attached to Him, condition our minds to always focus on hearing His Word and listening to His every commandment and direction. Then God will bring and lift up our lives to complete every will of His plan.
So, remember and pay attention, that all the blessings that God gives in our lives are not just for us to enjoy alone or for us to pursue personally (solo run), but actually all the blessings that God bestows are to bring our lives to realize His will through corporate destiny that God puts in the life of a spiritual leader or father that He bestows in a spiritual family.
Jesus was blessed and given all power by the Father (Philippians 2:5-11, Ephesians 1:19-23), because Jesus always focused on completing the Father’s will (willing and ready to carry the cross), by never thinking about or bringing personal interests (denying and making Himself of no reputation – Matthew 16:24).
The same thing God wants for each of us who wants to follow Him, following the prophetic path (faith) to fulfill the divine destiny together (manifesting the ministry of the body of Christ).
