"It Is Finished"

Revelation: 12:10 “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night".

This is what I heard in the Spirit today:  It is DELIVER DAY!

Your Promise in God has been signed, sealed and delivered by the Blood of the Lamb.

There is absolutely nothing left that needs to be done. IT IS FINISHED! PAID IN FULL.

As I was praying this morning, I came to God in desperation … once again.

Identifying the fiery arrows of doubt, unbelief, fear, anxiety and worry. You know - exactly how you’re not supposed to be. James 1:6-8 says to “ask in Faith, nothing wavering; for he that wavers is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways”. (ouch!)

So here I was once again. Crying out to the Lord from my fears. (gotta start somewhere).

As His presence came closer, my fears began to dissipate – as they do when He is near. I had enough boldness then to speak to all of the heaviness, the doubt, the worry and the fear saying: “You know what?! “My God is going to come, He knows my voice and He hears me when I cry. He will rescue me and it will be today”.

Sure enough I began to feel better.

As I was sitting there, now in the Presence of my God, I started to think to myself. ‘I wonder how I would act, how I would feel, how different my day would look if I KNEW that there was a package in the mail coming today’.

What if the things I have been waiting for, contending for, warring for were delivered to the front door this morning? The things that the Bible says are mine because of my covenant position with Almighty God. What if it were coming today, like a package ordered from Amazon.

I mean a bonafide faith that God is who He says He is began to rise up. A real solid, substance, evidence of things not yet seen. A Faith that He would do what He said He would do…but not tomorrow. Today.

Man that would be a change of perspective. I felt a lightness, a weightlessness come over me. A sense of His love and embrace wrap around me.

HOPE (expectation of something good from God-future tense) is great. I mean, thank God for Hope! It has carried me thus far. Through mountains and valleys , highs and lows. Through many temptations, toils and snares, I have already come!

Like a pregnant woman, she is preparing for manifestation of what she is carrying. She is peaceful knowing it is just a matter of time. She is expecting new life from the seed that has been sown in the womb, to come forth (in the soon future).

But FAITH. Faith is something different. It is NOW. Faith is the miracle working, manifested power of God in the NOW.

I heard so clear today. It is DELIVERY DAY. The Promises of God MANIFESTED.

The seed in the womb of your Spirit that has been sown, watered, protected, nurtured, developing, growing.

I heard the Lord so strong this morning. “The package is at the door!”. It has already been delivered (at the Cross). It is finished!” He continued.. “The answer (to your prayer) is YES and AMEN, to the Glory of God the Father!”

I realized this is what Faith like a child looks like. They receive their needs (manifested) EASILY AND IMMEDIATELY. Here and NOW.

They are not wracked with fear or writhing with worry that mom or dad will meet their needs. They simply wake up and receive all that is provided to them, waiting for them at the door.

Signed, sealed, delivered.

I’m convinced if the church had a clue, if I had a clue…of the incredible His incredible Love for me, I could spend all of my days being a professional receptacle of the Goodness of God. Easily and Immediately receiving all that Christ died on the Cross to give.

The Great Exchange. My sin and Guilt for His forgiveness. Death for new life. My sickness for health. My fear for Peace. My sadness for His Joy.

Afterall -  “For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” (1 John 3:8)

No, I’m not saying we will ever have an ‘easy’, non-resistant life or that as a follower of Christ we will not encounter suffering, nope not saying that at all. But man do we fall short in receiving all that is in our Abrahamic Covenant with God.

Regardless of your theology. Our God is a Good God.  Just like your hearts’ desire is to do good for your children.

Matthew 7:11 “IF you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father which is in Heaven give good things to them that ask Him?”.

The only thing left to do is THANK Him for what He has already provided.

The answer is YES. If you can see it in the Bible, you can have it. "Yes, I finished it, all of your needs, at the Cross.!"

Yes, today is the day for your miracle. Not tomorrow. By His Stripes we WERE healed. It’s at the door. No striving. No grasping. No warring. No effort. DONE. By Grace alone.

Thank Him! for II Corinthians 6:2 “Behold NOW is the day of Salvation [health, safety; deliverance from the molestation of enemies].

THE GOSPEL TRULY IS “Good News”.

However, I don’t just want to preach it and proclaim it, I want to walk in it and personally experience it.

Paul said “I do not come with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration and with power”.

Revelation: 12:10 “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
