THE JOY OF SALVATION

We have seen the assurance of our salvation, that is, how we know that we are saved. We have also seen the security of our salvation, that is, how we can never lose our salvation. 

But is that sufficient? Unfortunately, many Christians are content to go only this
far-------having salvation, but having little joy or enjoyment of that salvation,

Our friend with millions in the bank may have the assurance that He is rich, and He may have the security of knowing that His deposit is safe. But if He never spends a dime and is content to live a pauper's life, we can hardly say He has the enjoyment of those riches. Objectively speaking He is rich, but in His practical experience He has nothing.

This is the condition of many Christians today. 

They are saved,but in there daily life they have little experience of the unsearchable Riches of Christ (Eph 3:8) However, God's intention is that we not only have Christ, but that we Enjoy Him, even to the uttermost (John.10:10;Phil.4:4). The normal condition of a Christian is to "exult with Joy that is unspeakable and full of Glory"
 (1 Pet.1:8)

But nearly all of us will admit that there are times, even many times, when we do not have this overflowing Joy. Does thus means that we have lost our salvation?? Absolutely not! Our salvation is based upon God, not upon us. But although we cannot lose our salvation, we can lose the Joy of that salvation.

KINGS AND PRIESTS

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9) And [now] they sing a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the scroll and to break the seals that are on it, for You were slain (sacrificed), and with Your blood You purchased men unto God from every tribe and language and people and nation. And You have made them a kingdom (a royal race) and priests to our God, and they shall reign [as kings] over the earth! (Revelation 5:9-10 AMP) We were not saved just to have a ticket to heaven and in the meantime to maintain selfless and sinless lives here on earth. The purpose of our calling is to make known the excellencies of God. We are called to reveal and demonstrate His power, goodness, and love. We are destined to bring heaven here on earth. The term 'royal priesthood' signifies we are both to be priests a...

CULTIVATE INTIMACY

Cultivate Intimacy Soaking prayer is not a replacement for reading the Bible, praying, intercession, Christian counseling, or any other Christian discipline. It is the other side of the conversation, cultivating intimacy, going after God’s heart. Then He comes with His hand! I have especially seen this in healing ministry. Healing of issues of the heart, like physical healing, sometimes comes in an instant. But sometimes the healing takes place over a period of time. This is where soaking comes in. Many healing rooms and counselors have a place for their clients to soak before and after sessions with much fruit.  We’ve seen over and over that most of what God does happens when people stay on the floor (or sit in a chair) and keep on receiving, lingering in His presence. We so easily want “McJesus,” but He wants to dine with us! There is always more! Don’t miss it! When you are in that place, He has your full attention, and you have His. Many churches have added soaking prayer to ...

Sons of Abundance

  Sons of Abundance In a world often marked by scarcity and striving, the call to become "Sons of Abundance" is a powerful invitation to live in the fullness of God’s provision and grace. This mindset is not about material wealth alone but encompasses a life overflowing with spiritual, emotional, and relational richness—a life rooted in the knowledge of God as our loving Father. When we embrace our identity as His children, we step into a divine inheritance that transforms how we think, live, and give. 1. Knowing God as a Father At the heart of abundance is a deep understanding of God’s character as our Father. He is not distant or detached but intimately involved in every aspect of our lives. Galatians 4:7 (Mirror) reminds us, “Your sonship qualifies you to immediately participate in all the wealth of GOD’s inheritance which is yours because of CHRIST.” Similarly, Ephesians 1:11 (NLT) declares, “Furthermore, because we are united with CHRIST, we have received an inheritanc...
