“God has blessed you with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus”
Ephesians 1:3; and 1 Corinthians 3:21 declares, “…all things are yours.” In
2 Peter 1:3, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that
pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called
us to glory and virtue.” God has given you everything you require to
live victoriously and be a success in life. Meanwhile, in 2 Peter 1:3, we
observe a very important element: it’s about “your knowledge of Him.” There’s
nothing you could ever need or desire for a godly life that’s not already yours
in Christ. However, making it a reality in your life is a function of your
knowledge of Him.
This kind
of knowledge is full, exact knowledge “epignosis” (Greek). God’s provisions
aren’t going to come to pass in your life just because they’re written in the
pages of the Bible; there’s a knowledge of Him that you must have; knowledge
beyond the senses; specific knowledge, without assumptions.
Something
so beautiful and powerful about knowing Him is that not only do you do you get
to know, and are able to appropriate all that He’s given to you, you also get
to know yourself. The more you know Him, the more you know you; He mirrors you,
His word mirrors you; in Him, you see you. You can never really know yourself
as God knows you until you know Him. He made you; so only he knows what’s
inside you and what you’re capable of; he alone can reveal to you.
Therefore, the way to know Him, and get to discover you, is to study and
meditate on the Word. 2 Corinthians 3:18 shows that the word is the mirror of
God that reveals your true description. It says, “…We all, with open face
beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image
from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the lord.” Search and
discover who you really are, by looking into the mirror of God; by getting to
know the Lord. The moment you get a hold of what the word says is yours, or who
the Word says you are, respond by affirming accordingly. That’s how you endorse
His Word into manifestation in your life.
