Imagine someone appearing at your door and saying the following:
‘Go to such-and-such car dealer and take whatever car you desire.’
‘Go to that apartment complex and choose the apartment you desire.’
‘Go to the supermarket and take whatever you want.’
Go to such-and-such travel agency and book a flight to wherever you want.’
How would you feel/react?
As tempting as it may be, I don’t think you would rush to the car dealer, apartment complex, or store just like that. I am sure you would first question if the person sending you owns those businesses and if they really have the authority to give out so much.
You are correct; this reaction is intelligent! You know the saying that goes: ‘Easy comes, easy goes.’
The things of God are not easy, but when He promises something, it is legit. You can be sure that His promise will be fulfilled. Our Lord is the Owner of all things, so it is in His power to give!
“I will declare the decree: The Lord has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession.” (Psalms 2:7-8)
In this Bible passage, the Lord is encouraging us to ask, and you can be sure He is well able to deliver. Your Father has a great inheritance for you; go ahead and let Him know what you need. God will never leave you hanging!
May the God of the Bible bless you!
Bishop Bira Joshua
