2 Peter 1:3 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,
Even when we’re older we can still discover some new things He has put in us that we didn’t realise were already there! Joshua Campbell sold his first can of famous Campbell soup when he was 78! Smith Wigglesworth, who was from Yorkshire, wasn’t baptised in the Holy Spirit till he was 48, but God used him to heal multitudes and raise 14 people from the dead!😊
We often ask God for more of His Holy Spirit, more of His power or more of ‘something’, but God has already given us all things that relate to our daily lives and godliness. We’ve already got them, they’re already given to us! How can God give us more, when He’s already given us ALL things!?
Peter goes on and explains that everything is available to us through God’s promises which are all ours through Jesus. We already have the Holy Spirit but what we need, is to give Him more of us, and believe the promises given, then all that He has given us will be able to flow from where He is inside us, to the outside where we can see it manifested.
Miracles and healings are already in us because God is in us and we are in Him. Prosperity, joy and peace, overflowing rivers of life, spiritual gifts, all things we need, are already available for us to tap into right now, if we have Jesus as our Saviour. The more we believe His promises the more of what God has given us can flow out.
There really is so much more in us than we realise! 2 Corinthians 4:7 We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.
Let’s ask the Lord to show us more of what He has already gifted us with, and use our gifts and talents for His glory. Our world needs what He has given to each of us, whether we’re 9 or 99! What a thought!😊
