God has promised you!
By Riqui Ricón*
For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I
have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn
that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. For the
mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not
depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee. (Isa 54.9-10).
Amazing!
The New Pact in
Jesus’ Blood is the best Pact, established upon better promises, through which,
after being justified and forgiven by His Life and Blood being spilled, now you
have been legitimately adopted as a Child of God.
That’s right, because
He swore it with His Word, now God looks at you and treats you as a Father
looks and treats His Child.
For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on
the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities
to be inhabited. Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be
thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the
shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any
more. For thy Maker is thine husband; the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of
Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. (Isa 54.3-5).
Your relationship
with God changes radically through the New Pact: now what you did no longer
matters, or what you are doing, but what Jesus did out of love for you. An
opportunity to leave the past behind and be Born Again to an Abundant and
Plentiful Life as the Child of the King has been given to you.
Now, no matter what
problem, anguish or disease you are facing, the time of God’s Splendor of Glory
has come upon you. You will expand on your right and your left!
Don’t be afraid for
you will not be confused; don’t be ashamed for you won’t be affronted, but you
will forget about all the past that condemns you.
Now the Almighty God
is your own Father!
And you, being dead in your sins and the
uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having
forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of
ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of
the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and
powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. (Col 2.13-15).
Being a Child of God,
Born Again, means to live in that Life, Plentiful and Abundant in justice and
healing which He decreed, with His Word, that belongs to you. It’s not about
what you do or stop doing but about whether or not you can believe that you are
now that Child that God says you are.
It’s about believing
that the Bible is God’s Word and, therefore, everything that is written in it
are the Word, they are the Truth and all will be fulfilled; the heaven and
earth will stop to exist before God’s Word isn’t fulfilled.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the
world; but that the world through him might be saved. (Joh 3.16-17).
It’s about really
believing that God loves you so much that He preferred to give up His own Son
than losing you.
See
how very much our heavenly Father loves us, for he allows us to be called his
children—think of it—and we really are! But since most people don’t know God,
naturally they don’t understand that we are his children. (1 Joh 3.1
LB).
It’s about believing
that now you Truly are a loved Child of God.
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead
bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all
principality and power: (Col 2.9-10)..
While you keep
listening to the voices of failure and defeat that tell you you are not worth
it, you are useless, you can’t do it, that you’re still the same person that
you were before, sinful, afraid, irresponsible, etc, then you will keep on
living a lie, fighting against fear, anguish, disease and damnation.
What a contrast with
the Scripture that assures you you are complete in Christ and all the
Plentitude of God is in Him and, therefore, also in you!
If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples
indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you
free. (Joh 8.31b-32).
Only by remaining in
God’s Word will you find access to this freedom. All of this is True for
whoever believes in God’s Word, for he who believes can do ALL.
God’s Plentitude,
that way of living in peace, with joy and full of love is applicable to every
area of your life: in health, finances, family and personal relationships,
profession performance, home, etc. For when you know that you now are a Child
the King of the Universe and you have divine rights and privileges (just like
obligations), the problems and the circumstances of your surroundings will
never deceive you again to put you in a victim condition
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him
who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light; Which
in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not
obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. (1 Pe 2.9-10).
Dear one, even if you
don’t believe it, you are and will always be the person God says in His Word
you are now. If you believe it or not doesn’t change the Truth; it only changes
the wether or not you can live IN the Truth. Witn your faith (believing God,
believing His Word) you make living that Plentiful and Abundant life, that was
ALREADY bought and prepared for you, possible.
And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and
into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have
compassion on us, and help us. Jesus said unto him, If thou canst
believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. (Mk 9.22-23).
Yes! Jesus already
did it all for His love to you and now it all depends on you being able to
believe.
Enlarge
the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations:
spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; (Isa 54.2).
Let’s pray out loud:
Dear heavenly Father,
in this moment I am willing to declare with all my heart that I DO BELIEVE. I
believe that the Bible is Your Word and I believe that what You did for me by
dying on that cross, Lord Jesus, establishes me and affirms me in the condition
of Your Child. I believe I now have that New condition: I am a Child of God,
Born Again. I know and I will declare all my life that I am loved by You, oh
God, that you have not left me and you will never leave me. I will not fear
anything or anyone because You are with me. You redeemed me, gave me a name, I
am Yours. Your Word is the Truth and I am the completely New person You say I
am now. I will not listen or believe the voices of failure and defeat that want
to stop me from manifesting in the Plentitude of Life that I will live. In all
these things I am more than a conqueror through He who loved me, for I can do
ALL in Christ who strengthens me. In Your Word, Lord, I declare myself free,
healthy, prosperous and full of joy peace and love which You, and only You,
Lord Jesus give me. Therefore I will nof fear, I will only believe. I extend
toward the Plentiful and Abundant Life that You already got for me. In Jesus’
name. Amen.
Note of importance:
How do I become a
Child of God? How do I establish my relationship with the Almighty?
Simply say this
prayer, placing all of your attention and heart into what you’re saying to God:
Lord Jesus, I believe
that you are the Son of God. That you came to this world from the Virgen Mary
to pay for all of my sins, and I have been a sinner. This is why today I tell
you, I accept. I accept your sacrifice on the cross! Yes, I accept Your precious
Blood, spilled to the very last drop, out of love for me! I open my heart to
you and invite you in, because I want you, oh Lord Jesus, to be my one and only
Savior, my God, my King, my Lord. Thank you, God Almighty, for with this simple
prayer and declaration of faith I have come from death to Life, I have been
displaced from the shadows and into Your marvelous Light. Today I have been
Reborn! God I am now Your Child! You are now my Father! I will never again be
alone! Never again will I live defeated. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
