One day I was sitting in my house and
thinking about the things that my friends have obtained. Then, I began to
wonder why I wasn’t at the status level that they were. But, before I was able
to complete my thought the Holy Spirit interrupted and said, “You are the
righteousness of God in Christ” (2
Corinthians 5:21, Amplified). He proceeded to say, “You have access to what
they have. But, you don’t deem yourself worthy to receive it.”
The Holy Spirit said that I look at my friends
as the elite, even though we all serve the same God. He continued to explain
that my friends obtained what they have because they believed that God would
give it to them. Then, He reminded me of Sarah (Abraham’s Wife) in the bible. Sarah
was able to have a child in her old age because she had faith that God would
keep His promise (Hebrews 11:12, Amplified).
Afterwards, He lovingly repeated, “You are the righteousness of God in
Christ. Therefore, you are apart of the elite crowd as well because you are a
child of God’s!”
I am letting you know that I have been
bamboozled into believing that I was unworthy to receive God’s goodness. The
reason that I was deceived is because I didn’t know what my inheritance was as
a child of God. Now, I make it my business to study and read the bible. Now I
know that I am the head and not the tail, above only, and not beneath
(Deuteronomy 28:13, Amplified).
Let me leave you with this final thought. In
1 Peter 2:9 (Amplified) it states, But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation,
[God’s] own [d] purchased, special
people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the
virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His
marvelous light. Now that you have been made
aware of your royal status, continue to meditate on the Word of God and follow
His commandments. Blessed
(happy, fortunate, to be envied) are they who keep His testimonies, and who
seek, inquire for and of Him and crave Him with the whole heart (Psalm 119:1 & 2, Amplified). Live your life like you are
ELITE!
God Bless,

Scriptures:
But seek ([z]aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His
righteousness ([aa]His way of doing
and being right), and then all these things [ab]taken
together will be given you besides.
Matthew
6:33 (Amplified)
And
Peter opened his mouth and said: Most certainly and thoroughly I now
perceive and understand that God shows no partiality and is no
respecter of persons,
Acts
10:34 (Amplified)
For
His divine power has bestowed upon us all things that [are requisite and
suited] to life and godliness, through the [[d]full,
personal] knowledge of Him Who called us by and to His own glory and
excellence (virtue).
2 Peter 1:3 (Amplified)
