Welcome to your Friday fry-up.
Let’s look again at the verse we finished with yesterday.
Philemon 6 (NKJV)
That the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
The sharing of your faith is dramatically affected by the acknowledgment of every good thing that is in you in Christ Jesus. As we discover His divine potential and life now resident within the temple of our life the realization of this is what certainly makes you think differently about things.
In fact, it is the acknowledging of “every good thing” that God has put in you through Jesus that causes effectiveness in every single part of who we are. What did we get placed in us through Christ? It’s a long list! Here are but a few of the many things that we can be so grateful for:
- Abundance of Grace – has come to us through Jesus
- The gift of righteousness – is ours because of Jesus
- Forgiveness, healing & divine health
- Faith and hope
- New life and freedom from condemnation
- Restored innocence
- Love, power and a sound mind.
The list could go on and on.
Oh that we may all fully understand all that we have already received in and through Christ Jesus our Lord. Start today to release more of what He has deposited in you. How? Acknowledge what He has given by thanking Him for it. By faith you believe and faith is the divine phone call that activates whatever God gives.
Let’s stop begging Him for more and take a moment to realize and acknowledge what we already have.
Have a fantastic weekend.
