Walking In Abundance- Part 8
October 21, 2026 – 3:55 amWhat does it take to participate in FATHER’S Divine promises?
Jesus wants us to walk in life and abundance. His provision is in the promises. If you don’t know the promises, if you don’t relate to the promises, then you go without the provision. It isn’t because God hasn’t made the provision, it’s because you haven’t discovered or are not willing to avail yourself of it.
Through the promises of God, you and I, as Believers, redeemed by the Blood of Jesus, coming to God the Father, through Jesus Christ the Son, you and I become partakers of God’s own Nature. We receive the very Nature of God within ourself.
I cannot overemphasize the need to understand and embrace what Peter wrote concerning this Truth.
Peter revealed this Truth by The Holy Spirit in 2nd Peter chapter 1:
2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 as His Divine power has given to us all things that pertain to Life and Godliness, through the knowledge of Him Who called us by glory and virtue,
[4] by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the Divine Nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
As a result of HIM calling us, we have been given magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises we can experience partnership with His Divine Nature.
We have been given birth by The Holy Spirit to be GOD’S true Sons and Daughters, now, not some time in the future. This is one of the great mysteries of our faith, that GOD shares HIS Nature with us. Every Father imparts His nature into His Children. Christ lives in us and transforms us into His very own Likeness. In Christ, we share with Him the Divine Nature. We will all bear the Image of the Man from Heaven!
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:
12 So then, Beloved ones, the flesh has no claims on us at all, and we have no further obligation to live in obedience to it.
13 For when you live controlled by the flesh, you are about to die. But if the Life of the Spirit puts to death the corrupt ways of the flesh, we then taste His abundant life.
14 The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit.
To walk in His inheritance, FATHER provided a pattern for us in the Book of Joshua.
It is written by The Holy Spirit in Joshua chapter 1:
1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, it came to pass that the LORD spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying:
2 “Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I am giving to them-the children of Israel.
3 Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given you, as I said to Moses.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the River Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your territory.
The way in which Joshua and Israel entered into their inheritance is a pattern for us. First of all, they had to understand that the land from then on was legally theirs.
Second, they had to do something about it, and this is what they had to do. They had to assert their ownership by placing their feet on the land that God had promised. And God said, “As soon as you put your foot on any piece of soil in the land, it’s yours; legally, it’s yours already, but to make it experientially yours, to have it in actual experience, you’ve got to go in and put your foot on it.”
We have to do just as Israel had to do. First of all, we have to believe what God has said, that legally it belongs to us because God has given it to us. Secondly, we have to act. We have to move in, and as it were, place our foot on every area that God has promised, and as soon as we experientially place our foot on that area, in faith, it becomes ours in reality. So, Israel entering the promised land, is a pattern for us, entering the land of promises.
