We are walking in today: God's Ability Equals His Willingness.
James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. One essential truth that we must believe is that God's ability equals His willingness. If we recognize that God has the ability, after all He is the creator of the heaven and the earth but don't believe that He is willing--our unbelief will defeat the promises of God in our lives. We must believe what God said, He is willing to do and able to do. Anytime anyone tells you that God can or can not do something, we must look at His word to know the truth. Men will see a need and exhibit unwillingness but not God. Men may see a need and unwilling to help or willing to help but lack the resources to help--God is not this way. What God says is available in His word, He is willing to do and able to do. We are His masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus. The only way that we will know the truth of God's word, is by reading the Bible. In our study we will find that God is liberal and generous in His giving. This we must recognize and believe, fiveamprayer!! All of us need wisdom--the proper application of knowledge. God has a handle on all of that!! His word says that if we ask that it shall be given to us. How does He give, you ask. He gives liberally and does not upbraid or reproach us. Well, we will see that He gives liberal in all things, not just in wisdom. Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? God is quite willing to give us good things when we ask, much more so than our earthly fathers. So that is the will of God, we ask so that He can give. Let us look at another scriputure. Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? How is He going to give to us? Freely. Don't put restrictions on what God want to give to you. He gave the ultimate gift, His only begotten Son, watching Him being beaten, tormented and humiliated. Christ in obedience died for you and me so that we would be brought back for the adversaries clutches. Since God is willing to give His Son, no good thing will He withhold, we must recognized and believe, fiveamprayer!! Psalm 84:11-12 11)For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. 12) O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee. No matter the circumstances, no matter the situation, no matter the facts or condition, nothing is too hard for God! Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible. He said it again in, Luke 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. God's ability equals His willingness!!!
You have got to know that right now that He is more than able! He is still in control! It is the Lord that holds all of the favor over your life. He can and will fix it, no matter what the circumstances, but will we be obedient to His word? He is willing and able!! Hold on to His word and unchanging hand. Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Malachi 3:6 6) For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Thank You Lord, for changing not! Sending out Your word to accomplish all that You sent it out to do. So there is no question of whether or not He will do it, it is whether or not we will be obedient to His word!? We are to believe and trust His word. Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise. That is why we are to lean not to our own understanding, we no longer are walking in the flesh but in the Holy Spirit that is sealed on the inside of us! He is the one who makes the crooked places straight, ordering our steps, but will you stop stepping out of line?! 2 Samuel 7:28 And now, O Lord GOD, thou art that God, and thy words be true, and thou hast promised this goodness unto thy servant. Revelation 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. God's ability equals His willingness. This is our year of abundance, our harvest season. We serve the God that makes all things possible! He is a way maker, revealing onto us His marvelous light from the darkness that we are in. Move out of the way, fiveamprayer and trust and follow His word. God is for us, who can stand against us? He keeps making a way out of us! Giving us a word that we can stand on and walk in. Trust His word, fiveamprayer! The Lord is our Provider! Fiveamprayer, knows this for ourselves!! Taste and see that the Lord is good! He is amazing and mighty! Keep walking in obedience, it is better than sacrifice. God can't use you if you won't be obedient. 1 Samuel 15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. We must be found in obedience whether we understand the whys or not. 1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. So if we can cast our cares because He cares for us--surely we can be obedient in whatever He gives us to do. He cares for us and is watching over us! Psalm 105:15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. Fiveamprayer, has been set aside for His use. That is why we must walk in obedience to His word, and follow as He leads us. He is the Father of Lights, we can safely trust in Him! James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. Many of us are not blessed because we are not walking as God directs us. He is teaching us obedience to walk with Him, only. We must not walk in the flesh or our feelings, the two most varied things that are not tied to anything substantial!!! One moment up the next down and at first hot then cold. Thank You Lord for Your word that is constant, there is no worry if Your word will change on a whim--it is everlasting, standing forever! That is why we must follow where the Holy Spirit leads us! The Holy Spirit is steady just like the Rock that we stand on! When God speaks, as Minister Davis spoke on yesterday, we must move immediately. There is not time for delay. Our obedience is evident in staying in His will and moving quickly when He speaks. We can not be like children in the natural, "God, I heard you but just one minute." We certainly want God to move on our behalf quickly, don't we? Why would we think that we could tell God to hold for a minute?! There is nothing to ponder or check on--He is creditable and there is no one higher than Him. Who would you appeal to for verification or confirmation? The only thing higher than Him is His word! Whatever He tells you will be in agreement with His word. That is why we must stay in study of the Bible to know when He is speaking and if it lines up. Once that is settled the next response is, "I'll go God. Where ever You want to send me." We have to be obedient to His instructions, He is shaping and molding us into His great masterpiece. We must have in our hearts, 'not our will but Thy will be done!' Trust God, it is all about Him anyway. It is for His glory! Keep on trusting and looking to God, He is well able and willing to do it. He said that He would pour out blessings from the windows of heaven. We have to be in line with His will to receive from Him. Walk in and stand on His word! Don't allow your flesh to get you out of His will. Stay right where He said. Deuteronomy 28:14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them. Fiveamprayer, where has God directed you? Did you follow, or turn to the left or right? Get back on track!! We must continue in the word that He has given us! Don't worry the next instruction comes once the current one has been completed. God's word, love, instruction, and patience does not run out!! He love us so! He gave the greatest gift! His only begotten Son to redeem us back to Him! Thank You Lord! Hallelujah! Thank You Jesus! Stay where God has put you, don't move or give up. God has purpose in all that He does! The Lord is doing a new thing, He wants you there so that your light can shine in that situation, giving Him the glory. Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. While you are sitting there in obedience to the Lord, even though your flesh does not want to, He is keeping you and covering you. Obedience is better than sacrifice. Don't miss God! Do everything that He tells you to do. Tell Him, "I'll go, send me." You have to truly walk with Him, do what ever He asked you to do. He did not withhold His own Son for us! How can we hold back anything thing from Him?! Besides Jesus is the only one to die for the sins of the world, what God is asking of you does not even begin to compare!! He will be with you and strengthen you. Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our LORD: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Fiveamprayer, we can certainly be obedient to His word. That is the way to God's heart, obedience. Stay when He says, leave when He says, be obedient to His word. Not our will, but Thy will be done! It is not about emotions that are fleeting, He is stable, able and willing. It is not about feeling like God today--Thank You Lord for not having that response toward us! We would cease to exist! Thank You Lord for teaching us to stand on the word not our fickle emotions. This is our time, our season to hear from God. We have to walk this out by faith. Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Fiveamprayer, walk as God directs you. He will give to us freely when we are obedient. Obedience shows that we trust Him above everything else. Not looking for a way out without God's fingerprint on it. Holding and walking in the word in spite of what the natural looks like or how you feel. Thank You Lord for teaching us, for really showing us who You are! Sometimes we make that request to know you more and for You to lead us. Then we don't want to follow as You direct us. We have got to be obedient!! Do whatever God has asked you to do. Move quickly to accomplish the task, job, or assignment. God gave us His perfect work in His Son. We must detach, separate from the flesh and move on God's word. Taste and see that the Lord is good! "We are Your earthen vessels, use us as You see fit, Lord." Walk in obedience. His ability equals His willingness. As it says in James, if anyone is lacking in wisdom as the Lord and He will give liberally. "Tell me how to sit here in this thing, Lord. Trusting that You will bring me out in Your perfect timing." We must surrender our will to His will. Our way to His way. We lift up fiveamprayer, to follow You Lord in obedience. Nevertheless, Thy will be done! We lift up prayer requests for Melissa and Juanita give them peace and rest in this situation. We pray for Your hand in the situation--healing and restoring them. Forgive us Lord for not turning it over into Your capable hands. You already know the outcome! We have a new outlook this morning, a new revelation we must be obedient and truly trust Him.
We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.
Welcome to the overflow....
Because God's ability equals His willingness--He has granted us every request that we have made. We must be obedient. Somebody got set free with this word, thank You Lord! Thy will be done! Truly walk in this word today, walking with Him. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. We know that He is able and willing. That He gives liberally when we ask. We must hold on to His will, letting our will go. Look up and read these scriptures for yourself. Visit us on facebook and have a blessed day!
