Wherefore, my beloved... work out your
own salvation with fear and trembling
(Philippians 2:12).
In Christianity, that you’re born again doesn’t
automatically mean you’ll live like a true Christian
or experience the results of the Christian life. It doesn’t
mean things will automatically start happening of their own
accord; no! You have to make them happen. You have to
work out your salvation. That means you have to put your
faith to work; you have to practise the Word of God.
It’s the doer of the Word that experiences the blessings
of salvation: “But be ye doers of the word, and not
hearers only, deceiving your own selves. But whoso
looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth
therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer
of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed”
(James 1:22 & 25).
You have a life that’s superior to Satan, sickness,
disease and infirmities—the divine life. You’re an associate
of the God-kind: “Whereby are given unto us exceeding
great and precious promises: that by these ye might
be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the
corruption that is in the world through lust” (2 Peter
1:4). You hail from God: “Ye are of God, little children,
and have overcome them: because greater is he that
is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4).
Your origin is in God, and He lives in you. You must
superimpose these realities upon the circumstances of life.
That’s where your knowledge of the Word and meditation
comes in. You have to know and meditate on the Word
for yourself. Through meditation, the realities in the Word
and the truths within your spirit are brought into your
consciousness. They become real and tangible to you.
Also, through conscious meditation on the Word, you
make your way prosperous, create your victories, and deal
wisely in the affairs of life: “This Book of the Law shall not
depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it
day and night, that you may observe and do according
to all that is written in it; For then you shall make your
way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and
have good success” (Joshua 1:8 AMPC).
There you have it: your glorious and prosperous life
isn’t up to God but up to you. He’s given you His Word
which is what you need to live supremely blessed, walk in
dominion and enjoy the full benefits of salvation. But you
must work the Word; act on it to produce in and for you
what it talks about.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the divine life you've given
me. I live in the consciousness of who I am in Christ. I
superimpose your Word over my thoughts, my body, and
my daily circumstances. I walk in divine health, peace
and victory every day because I live from the awareness
of your indwelling presence and the power of the Spirit
in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
