By not knowing what Jesus has made us into we will never walk in power and victory that we were designed for. The Lord asked me a question “When will my people believe my word?” My answer was, we are leading people to the Lord, healing the sick, etc… His answer was, “No when are my people going to believe what I said about them in my word.”
Too many Christians view themselves as less than what God says they are. They feel unworthy, worthless, having no abilities, feeling unusable. The word points a different picture of who we are because of Jesus sacrifice. These feeling contrary to the word is the reason so many never enter into the ministries each is called to. So many set on the sidelines enjoying others do ministry, but never think that they can do works for the Lord also. Most view the Eph. 4:11 ministries as those called to ministry and they are there to support them. The 5-fold ministries are the gifts from Jesus given to us to equip us to minister to the lost, sick and captives. Many Christians have a basic knowledge of who God is, who Jesus is, and who the Holy Spirit is; but don’t have a clue as to who they are. By not knowing what Jesus has made us into we will never walk in power and victory that we were designed for. I am going to cover two of the many reasons for this. One, not feeling worthy. Worthy has to do with worth. Jesus considered you worth the price. Acts 20:28 and Eph. 1:14 says we were purchased with a price – the blood of Jesus. He considered you worth the price he paid to purchase you from the kingdom of darkness so you could be ushered into the kingdom of light. NEVER again say I am unworthy – that is a LIE! Two, undeserving. We are totally correct in saying we don’t deserve anything from God. BUT, the GRACE of God was designed for the underserving. I wasn’t saved because I deserved it, its by grace we are saved. I don’t pray for sick because I’m good at it, its by GRACE. I don’t deserve to pray for the sick. I prophesy by grace. I speak in tongues by grace. Everything I do or I am is by God’s grace, nothing more. You can win the lost, heal the sick, perform miracles, walk in victory all because of God's wonderful grace. It’s time the church rose up and become the church. Pew sitting is not a calling, ministry is. Jesus is coming back for a victorious church not a sitting church. Rise up get into the word, claim who you are and begin to do what God has called you to. Doc
