YOUR ACTION IS NEEDED STILL!
YOUR ACTION IS NEEDED STILL!

“I can do all things through him who gives me strength.” – Philippians 4:13
The bigger truth about your spiritual identity is that you are a god in your domain. Just like God created the whole world for his pleasure, so you also can create your desires. Therefore, it is true that we are created great and can, in fact, do all things through Christ in us! This is so because we are imbued with extraordinary power to create our reality or desires. The reason we are so great and can, in fact, create things like God is that we are of the image of God! God already created us in His likeness and image. This power is given to us NOT because we are Christians, or because we go to church regularly. This power is given to every human being, not withstanding our religious beliefs, biases, natural inclinations, or cultural identity. Furthermore, our regrets of sentiments do NOT change the above fact of your Spiritual identity and power!
However, the truth about the above statement is lost on many of us; In fact, so many of us do NOT actually believe in our abilities to actualize our desires or goals. Another problem area is that while we may have faith in God to make a way for us in the wilderness, or to bring forth water for us in the desert, we actually do NOT put ourselves in a position where we can take advantage when the opportunity arises. No matter the promises of God, and the number of hours spent in prayers and fasting to actualize those promises, we still have to make a physical move to actualize what we want. If we do not take the appropriate decision, nothing will shift! Some of us pray so much and fast every day and still, nothing has changed. It is because we are yet to take the right decision. You take the right decision when you prayerfully take the right step in the right direction regarding what you have prayed for. What prayer and faith do for us is to activate the power of God in us for inspiration, idea, and the knowledge to attract the necessary opportunities needed to manifest or to achieve our goals. Jesus gave an important principle for actualizing prayers which is often misinterpreted. Jesus says in Matthew 7:1-8 thus: “Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened”.
Therefore, to achieve our desires, we first ask in prayers by faith. We then move forward in the search of our desires, ably guided by faith. Knocking the doors of others, ably guided by confidence in God, is simply to inquire the help of others in the things that we need. All three – Ask, seek and knock constitute a line or a chain of action that must be done together each time we are pressed for a need. Therefore, we do not ask in prayers, without making efforts to search for what we need. Likewise, we cannot knock all over the place without first asking God in prayers! After you have first asked God in prayers, take the right steps believing God for His word. We are rewarded according to our abilities and the efforts we put into realizing our goals. Therefore, the lame, the blind, and the deaf will get their rewards in prayers. Even though these ones cannot move, see, or hear, still, God will reward them according to their abilities in taking the right decision! (John 5:7) Today is a day to start afresh! Back up your goals with action and prayers. Do not be afraid to dare. Step out of your comfort zone by faith!

Father in the name of Jesus Christ, today, I assume my divine authority and power and I now create the dynamics of my life according to your plan and purpose for me.
