We are dependent on God. Acting as though we do not need God is lawlessness.
As John 15:1-downwards postulates, the fallen man fights on his own, but the one who abides is a believer who realizes that he is nothing without God.
Thus, we are nothing of ourselves other than that which we see Jesus doing, and as such, any spirit that yarns independence is a deceiving spirit.
It is important to note that, manifesting our vulnerability before the face of God by praying it out, whether we feel it or not, is essential since prayer is not good because we felt good but good because we prayed.
Faith as the Way to Abide; ‘Being Practitioners of Faith’ – “Colossians 2:6.”
It is not only in coming to Christ that we need faith, but by faith that we believe in Jesus (Ephesians 2:6). As such, each day should be an altar call day. A day to abide by faith and believe in Jesus.
We should not forget the way we believed in Jesus. We should always worship the Lord, repenting from our fears, turning our desires and attitudes from the things that entangle us, and as we operate at the level of our faith, we will indeed grow.
2nd Chronicles 15 shows that if we have the true God, our convictions will sink deeper, and there are some convictions we will hold about the truth. It is important to note that there are convictions that, when cemented in our hearts, abiding in Christ is not an option.
In the same way, we have been saved from sin, we should pursue being saved from sicknesses. Also, in the same measure we fight sin, we should fight all sorts of debts, knowing that God is a just God, and thus, it is justice to pay our debts.
There is a message that the angel cannot send because believers are more attuned to matters of revelation than the angels. Have we cried to God about something, and He has moved without the help of men?
We must remove anything that is sharing God’s glory in our lives. In 2nd Chronicles 29:21, the bible talks about King Hezekiah offering seven bulls as part of a sin offering for the kingdom, the sanctuary, and Judah, alongside seven rams, seven lamps, and seven goats. However, all we require is time to pray and receive from the Lord. For instance, incorporating seven minutes, hours, or days of ascension will enable us to receive from Jesus. It is important to note that we labor to receive, not to earn. We labor to receive and agree with what Jesus has already done.
Amazingly, there is nothing like entering a covenant with Jesus. What Jesus needs us to do is believe. We study the Bible to receive what Jesus has paid for us. That said, our strength should be channeled towards loving the Lord, pursuing the Lord, and depending on God every day.
As Galatians 3:2-3 indicates, we have faith to receive what we trust God for through only God. The major problem is that we do not trust God for everything in our lives.
In 2025, God has so far released everything we need. It is only by believing that we will take hold of them.
