Oh My little children, have I not told you that you are One with Me and My Son? (John 17:21) If this is true, can you lack anything? The reality is that you can only lack if it is possible for Me to lack. Is it possible? Is there something beyond Me? Tell Me child, if you are heir to My Kingdom as declared, “And if you are the Messiah’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29), then why do your prayers continually petition Me for what is already yours? Ah, the next verse might explain, “Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child [immature], does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all. (Galatians 4:1)
Think about your immature prayers; “Father, please help me;” “Forgive me Father;” “Show me the way Father;” “Bless me Father.” Have I not told you that I Am your help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1); that I saved you while you were yet sinning (Romans 5:8); that My Son is My forgiveness (1 John 1:9); that Yahshua is the Way (John 14:6)? My blessings are yours to take loved one. Do you understand Me?
You have continually prayed for what has already been given to you. It is a choice you make which denies the perfected person that I have made you. Yes, that is correct. My Word declares that in My Son you are already perfected. “Come now, and let us reason together,” says Yahweh, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” (Isaiah 1:18)
The secret is to catch up to who I have already allowed you to become. When My servant David wrote, “Blessed is he…” and “He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of the waters,” (Psalm 1:1-3), he was coming into alignment with Me. He was stepping into what I had for him. Agreement with My Word is the spiritual prerequisite which activates My Word, making it a tangible reality. He believed Me, spoke forth that belief, thus prompting Me to give him what he asked for. He chose to believe Me, and therefore live as the powerful, perfected man that he was. Yes, like a dog, he at times repeated his follies (Proverbs 26:11), yet, he always got back on course. “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)
Embrace your true identity! You are with Me in perfection this very moment. It is up to you to align with this true reality. The illusion is anything other than this. Remove all flesh thoughts. It is called repentance loved one. Then, and only then, can you step into the destiny I’ve created for you.
