As we mature as Sons, we will become bold and confident in our inheritance and individual callings. Jesus was never timid or reluctant to speak, neither is the mature Son.
Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 7:
7 “Ask, and the gift is yours. Seek, and you’ll discover. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.
8 For every persistent one will get what he asks for. Every persistent seeker will discover what he longs for. And everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door.
9 “Do you know of any parent who would give his hungry child, who asked for food, a plate of rocks instead?
10 Or when asked for a piece of fish, what parent would offer his child a snake instead?
11 If you, imperfect as you are, know how to lovingly take care of your children and give them what’s best, how much more ready is your Heavenly Father to give wonderful gifts to those who ask Him?”
It is time to quit being reluctant in your requests of FATHER. As Paul wrote in Romans chapter 8, THE CASES AGAINST YOU AND ME ARE CLOSED! The adversary has no claim against us and we need to expect restitution from what he and his minions have stolen from us in the past. We are to make our demands and not back down.
In the above passage, Jesus told us to ask with the expectation of receiving and there were no “maybe’s” in the sentence thus He was and is emphatic in this Word. In this context, we are to demand what is rightfully ours to be released for it has been set aside waiting for us to access by way of the request… demand. We must realize FATHER’S Divine Plan and Intent for our success while on this earth. HE is waiting on us to embrace this revelation and act on it, we are not waiting on HIM even though the adversary would love to keep us in the dark concerning the benefits of our Sonship.
Yes, the above passage has been misused by those who were making requests in the soulish realm rather than the spiritual mindset attained by those moving toward full maturity in Christ. Forget their misuse and instead focus on the Words of Jesus. His Words are still applicable and we need to submit to His teachings rather than the deceptive teachings of men. Men who have no fruitfulness in their lives want to justify their lack of fruit by convincing others to join them in their blindness. Don’t allow yourself to follow them into the proverbial ditch.
FATHER is ready and willing to meet all your needs according to HIS riches (aka resources).
My Beloved, if you are in a current state of lack, do not accept it any longer but embrace the Words of Jesus and become convinced of His solution to your problems, issues, and lack. It matters not what country you are in or what your past is. Do not accept perceived failure in your life. Don’t feel sorry for yourself and longer. I have been broke, near death, attacked by others, yet here I am writing to you about the deliverance from those situations which looked perilous at times. Am I special or unique? Not any more so than you, for we are all His Children.
It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm 34:
15 The Lord sees all we do; he watches over his friends day and night. His Godly ones receive the answers they seek whenever they cry out to Him.
16 But the Lord has made up His Mind to oppose evildoers and to wipe out even the memory of them from the face of the earth.
17 Yet when Holy Lovers of God cry out to Him with all their hearts, the Lord will hear them and come to rescue them from all their troubles.
18 The Lord is close to all whose hearts are crushed by pain, and He is always ready to restore the repentant one.
19 Even when bad things happen to the good and Godly ones, the Lord will save them and not let them be defeated by what they face.
20 God will be your bodyguard to protect you when trouble is near. Not one bone will be broken.
21 But the wicked commit slow suicide. For they hate and persecute the Lovers of God. Make no mistake about it, God will hold them guilty and punish them; they will pay the penalty!
22 But the Lord has paid for the freedom of His servants, and He will freely pardon those who Love Him. He will declare them free and innocent when they turn to hide themselves in Him.
Demand restitution and recompense, The Judge will see that it is paid.
