Furthermore, because we are united with Christ,
we have received an inheritance from God,
for he chose us in advance,
and he makes everything work out according to his plan.
Eph 1:11 NLT
Good morning Abba, Good morning Jesus, Good morning Holy Spirit,
Have you wrestled with the notion that there is more to your life, to your story? Do you enter your day with full knowledge that His script, His-story, His ending is designed for your glorious living?
When ever I ponder this truth, life seems overflowing with possibilities.
And then... I walk out of the peace of His presence and prepare for the day. Why?
In the book, More to Your Story by Max Lucado, discusses putting on the cloak of glory. To truly live without the "cloak of guilt," we must intentionally put on His cloak of glory. Claiming, accepting, proclaiming that God's story redeems our story. We are now redeemed, dressed in the goodness of Christ. Anointed.
His purpose is now our purpose. His will is now our will. His plans are now our plans. His divinity is now our passion. We are custom made by Abba, our Father, the Creator of Heaven and Earth. We can live freed from condemnation, secured and established, sealed and a joint heir to the Kingdom of Heaven. Through the workmanship of His hands we will be seen through to completion.
When the whisperer comes into your mind, a situation, an action of oppression, bringing forth shame, guilt, or fear... remember that our Lord's forgiveness is irrevocable! From Heaven God doesn't see our sins... He sees His Son blocking out our transgressions.
Let us walk in His promises, standing tall in His service, and enjoying His life that we are meant to experience. God is good... all of the time! With full authority from Jesus, we can rebuke, bind, and cast out every deceptive thought. We can rebuke, remind, and bind every evil that tries to steal, kill, and destroy. We can proclaim every scripture passage that speaks life, blessings, and promise.
Walk with intentional purpose... it is your inheritance!
