And when Joshua had dismissed the people, the children of Israel went each to his own inheritance to possess the land. Judges 2.6

Although the people were sent by Joshua to possess the land, most had not entered the battle to take the part decreed by the Most High. Similarly, many people call themselves Christians, but do not even know how to pray the prayer of faith. Now, they should all learn this kind of prayer to be victorious. This lack of knowledge is bad, because it makes the devil mock their faith.

Saved people should always examine themselves to see what kind of faith they have embraced, because the devil has enslaved many of them. The evil one conditions God’s servants to weep and whine for the things they need but cannot get. The widespread idea is that the Most High will give us something when it is His will. The who consider themselves “saved” ignore the biblical text, which states:  For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us. (2 Corinthians 1:20).

Why pray for days on end, asking the Lord to reveal His will, when it is already in the Scriptures? He tells us to take hold of it once and for all: And that servant who knew his master’s will, and did not prepare himself or do according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes (Luke 12:47). Many are being punished for disobeying divine instructions.

We must continually examine ourselves, for if we know God’s plan for our life and reject it, we will be disapproved. The Word guides us: Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? — unless indeed you are disqualified (2 Corinthians 13:5). Examine yourself and truly live!

Go to your homestead – your understanding of the Word – in order to possess what belongs to you. Don’t leave in the devil’s hands what you have been given, for in the Judgment, everything that God has given you to handle must be returned with due increase. Be careful not to have the same fate as the one who hid the treasure in a handkerchief and returned it intact. Because of this, that servant was cast into outer darkness.

The instruction is to double what you have received. Thus, you will be invited to enter into heavenly joy: His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord’ (Matthew 25:21). Anyone who acts differently will hear: And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matthew 25:30). Mercy, Lord! 

Knowing the Savior’s warnings, we cannot disregard His plan, otherwise we will be accused of being wicked and negligent. Now, whoever disobeys His instruction will have the bitter disappointment of having rejected a divine command. Take possession of all that is given to you and be blessed forever!

In Christ, with love,
