A Chosen Inheritance
My chosen people were set upon the earth for such a time as this. They have been chosen to display my glory and power in the earth. To be chosen is to be selected with desire. I desired them before the foundation of the world. They were in me before anything existed. Now is the time of their release. That which I have put in them and entrusted unto them is now activated. They will release much into the earth realm in days to come. I will hasten my word to perform it in their lives. Many will shift into their true calling. You are mine and I am yours.
“Many are called, but few are chosen.”(Matthew 22:14 KJV). This is one of the most commonly spoken scriptures in the Body of Christ. It is a subtle indication of positioning. To be chosen is to be picked out for purpose. Some may feel that they are picked out to be picked on. But the truth is, “You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you, have planted you, that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting, at it may remain, abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name as a presenting all that I Am], He may give it to you.” (John 15:16 AMP).
If you have received the revelation that God has chosen you for His plan and His purpose, know that He is with you and watching over you for the fulfillment. As He has positioned you, He has confidence in you that you will be used for the manifestation of His greater work. Have you ever thought that God needs you and is depending upon you to be a piece of the hidden puzzle that positioned to explode suddenly?
Now is the appointed time to seek Him like never before. Let your hunger, your appetite, your passion for His presence and glory take you to a place in Him of revelation of His love. Seek His way so that He can add those things that He has planned for you. Our God is a loving and giving God who wants the best for His children. We don't realize that He makes many attempts to get to us in the earth realm that which He has already provided in the spirit. The enemy is the one who sabotages, steals, misdirects, hinders, kills and destroys. He is the thief of the abundant life that is planned for you. (John 10:10).
Remember not to take or receive the thoughts of the enemy. He comes to bombard your mind with those things that are in the natural, fleshly and the opposite of walking in the fruit of the spirit. He want to keep you in the sense realm, which is his level of operation instead of the spirit, exercising your true authority given by the blood and the name of Jesus. We are to duplicate God's thoughts so that we can cooperate with God's plan. His thoughts are the creative process. We must think differently and think soberly, not waving so that our minds will be impregnated with His thoughts. You are pregnant with God's purpose. It is our faith and action that will bring His thoughts into manifestation in the earth. The enemy want us to think like him. That is why there is a battle for our minds. We must cast down the enemy's imagination so that it will not be created. If God's has gifted you with creativity, the enemy will initiate an intense battle for your mind. He does not want you to operate like the Creator.
An inheritance comes from the will or testament of a person after death. Jesus, the Son of God, not only purchased our redemption from the enemy, as we were born into sin; but also gave us access to the great inheritance because we are the seed of Abraham. We have been adopted into the royal family. “And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you.” (Galatians 3:29 NLT). It looks like the enemy has been winning, but use the key of God's Word to access the doors of the many promises that belong to you. There is always some type of campaign to know your rights in the natural. Well, it is time to know your right in the spirit so that they will overtake, overrule and recover all that belongs to you. We must understand the grand design. The enemy is the prince of the power of the air, (Ephesians 2:2) but “The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”(Psalm 224:1). As long as you lack the knowledge of who you are, what you are called and chosen to do, you will never experience the greatness of our God.
Since the Father has planned and provided, we must be rich in faith and realize who we really are. It is the mustard seed of faith that caused us to believe for salvation in the beginning of our journey. Now we must increase and understand that the faith that was given by the author is being finished and designed to move and catapult us into the position of displaying His wealth and glory in the earth. “But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, God’s own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” (1 Peter 2:9).There is more on the inside of us the we can ever imagine. The dreams that we have cannot be compared to what God has made ready and kept ready for us at this appointed time.
“Making known to us the mystery, secret of His will, of His plan, of His purpose. And it is this: In accordance with His good pleasure, His merciful intention which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him. He planned for the maturity of the times and the climax of the ages to unify all things and head them up and consummate them in Christ, both things in heaven and things on the earth. In Him we also were made God’s heritage, portion and we obtained an inheritance; for we had been foreordained, chosen and appointed beforehand in accordance with His purpose, Who works out everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His own will.”
(Ephesians 1:9-11).
