Whatever it is you’ve been believing for, I’ve got good news for you: You’ve already got it! You’re already healed, blessed, prospered, and delivered. God has already provided everything you’ll ever need.
But you might be thinking to yourself, Well, it sure doesn’t feel like it! That’s because you’re only looking at things in the natural.
Most people limit what they perceive as reality to just this physical world: what they can see, taste, hear, smell, and feel. But there is an entire spiritual world out there. Not only is it out there, it’s also inside you. You are not only made up of your physical body and your mental, emotional part, but there is also a spiritual part to you. And it is this spiritual part that has the glory of God in it. However, most people do not recognise this. So, they only go by their senses.
People think that if they feel bad or discouraged, that’s just the way they are. But the truth is that if you’re born again, you always have love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance in your spirit (Gal. 5:22–23).
In the book of Ephesians, Paul prayed this prayer for the believers of his time and for those who would read it thousands of years later:
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power. Ephesians 1:17–19 (emphasis mine)
We can see from those verses that Paul was praying that believers would know what they already had in the spiritual realm.
In John 4:24 Jesus said, “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” He also said in John 6:63, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
The only way to understand that
you’ve already got what you need - when everything in the physical says you
don’t have it - is to recognise that there is more to reality than just this
physical realm. You need to see into the spiritual realm, and the way to do
that is through the Word of God. Faith in God’s Word is the bridge between the
physical and the spiritual realm. Faith in God is faith in His Word.
Hebrews 11:1 says, “Now
faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” The
truth is that faith doesn’t move God because God has already moved by grace.
All faith does is reach out and appropriate what God has already provided. It’s not a matter of trying to
get God to do something. It’s a matter of believing what He’s already done,
taking your authority, and learning how to release what He has provided.
Once you understand that God’s part is done, it makes it so much easier to receive something that’s already yours than to try to get something you don’t believe you have. Faith says, “If He’s already provided it, then how can I doubt that I will get it?”
A good example of this is in 2 Kings 6:15–17, where Elisha prayed that his servant’s spiritual eyes would be opened. His servant was terrified because the Syrian army had surrounded their city. Elisha had been giving the battle plans of the king of Syria away to the king of Israel, so the king of Syria had come for them.
In verse 16 Elisha said to his servant, “Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.” In the natural, if all you believe to be true is just this physical, natural world, then you would say Elisha lied. But Elisha prayed, “And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha” (2 Kgs. 6:17). In the spiritual realm, there were tens of thousands of angels completely surrounding them. And to think that this was under the Old Covenant.
Hebrews 8:6 shows that what they had is inferior to what we now have as New Testament believers. We have a better covenant that is established on better promises.
God is awesome, but you can’t always see Him in the physical realm. You have to have faith in His Word. It is the window through which you see what is happening in the spiritual realm. It also shows you what’s happening on the inside of you as a born-again believer - who you are, what you have, and what you can do in Christ.
Faith gets you to the point where you can believe the image that the Bible paints of you. It is a positive response to what God has already provided by grace. So reach out by faith, and take what God has already provided for you!
