Someone reading this needs to remember: YOU are God’s purchased possession!
The reason that you are going to succeed and NOT fail is because the anointing of Jesus Christ is IN you. This came about, not because you were so good, or so worthy, but because HE BOUGHT YOU.
You now belong to Jesus.
• What Jesus owns, he takes care of.
• What Jesus owns, he replenishes.
• What Jesus owns, he organizes, strategizes, equips, and empowers.
What Jesus owns is, most importantly, VALUABLE.
You are the purchased possession of the Lord!
Here’s what the Bible says about it…
Ephesians 1:11-14 NKJV
[11] In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, [12] that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory. [13] In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, [14] who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.
Why does the devil fight so hard against the MIND of remnant warriors?
Why is there a constant battle playing out in your thoughts?
I’ll tell you why…
When you forget that you truly, deeply, and unreservedly belong to Jesus, not just that you decided to trust him, but that HE DECIDED to redeem YOU…when you forget this, it becomes easy for the devil to convince you that you are valueless.
When you think and feel that you have no value, then it begins to matter less to you that God has an eternal purpose destined to be lived in and through your life.
By battling your mind, the devil wants to make you forget WHO you are and WHO JESUS IS TO YOU.
He wants you to forget ALL that Jesus has done for you.
Let me ask you a question: Where would you be RIGHT NOW without Jesus?
I have a feeling you could answer that question just like I could.
We would be utterly lost and hopeless, but instead, the love of God has been shed abroad in our heart by the Lord’s Spirit.
You have an inheritance.
You have a purpose.
You are created for the praise of God’s glory.
You are sealed with the Holy Spirit of God.
You are the purchased possession of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Do NOT allow the enemy of your soul to steal the knowledge of your “new” birthright!
Because you have been born again, into the kingdom of God, there is NOW a brand new birthright attached to your life.
SO walk BOLDLY by faith into the calling of God. As the Lord speaks to you, answer boldly. As Jesus reveals his purposes to you, act on them with boldness. When the Holy Spirit prompts you to take up the mantle of intercessor, do it with boldness and determination, realizing that YOUR PRAYERS MATTER because you belong to Jesus!
Agree with me in prayer:
“Lord Jesus, thank you for saving me and sealing me with your very own Spirit. You have anointed me for purposes that are greater than myself, and I will say “yes” to you. I trust you by faith in the time of my testing, and I know that you will bring me out to follow you, because I belong to you. In Jesus name, Amen!”
