Praise be to the God… who has blessed us… with every spiritual blessing.Ephesians 1:3 NIV
When you stumble or face a problem, God doesn’t jump off His throne and say, “John’s in trouble, Mary’s in a mess, I’d better act!” No, He’s already placed within you all that’s necessary to handle the situation and overcome it. Maturing in Christ is simply the process by which we learn to work out what God has already worked within.
Think about a baby in its mother’s womb. It already has every gene, chromosome and trait required, built into it from conception. Likewise, when you’re born into God’s family, you don’t just get one or two spiritual blessings; you get every spiritual blessing.
As a baby Christian you don’t know who you are or what you’ve got, so the Holy Spirit’s job is to reveal it to you. When you go through a crisis, you don’t need to go out and look for faith, or grace, or strength, or anything else. You already have them residing within you! Just learn to draw on them!
Furthermore, you don’t need to go looking for a more powerful person to pray for you. God wants to bring you to the place where you can… lay hands on your own head… minister to your own needs… speak peace to your own spirit… command calm within your own home! And that will happen, when you learn to acknowledge and activate the spiritual blessings He’s already placed within you.
