MANIFESTING ETERNAL LIFE – Pastor Chris
Saturday, June 20, 2020
In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour (Titus 1:2-3).
Notice what we just read: God manifested His word of promise for eternal life through “preaching”; preaching to who? To every creature, not just people. Jesus said in Mark 16:15, “…Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” The problem is that we’ve only been preaching the salvation message to human beings; consequently, we’re living in an environment that’s working against us.
Environmental degradation is on the rise, because we’re not preaching to all creation. This is the reason Paul cries out: “For the earnest expectation of the creature (creation) waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God” (Romans 8:19). The whole creation is groaning in pain, because the creation is in bondage, waiting to be liberated into the glorious liberty of the sons of God.
I first discovered this truth as a teenager and taught it even to my parents. I’d say to my dad, “Everything in life has intelligence; therefore, you can talk to your belongings; talk to your cars and they’ll never be grounded or immobile. Preach to them.” When I said those things, I sounded weird. But this is what we’ve been commissioned to do.
You can preach to your clothes, furniture, etc. Everything in life is waiting for your manifestation; waiting for you to liberate them. And when you do this, you’ll discover that in your life, you’re always new, always advancing; you see life working in everything around you. The supernatural becomes an everyday occurrence, because you’re manifesting eternal life. Hallelujah!
CONFESSION
I speak blessings to everything around me. I bring deliverance to every creature in my world, taking them out of bondage and corruption, into the glorious liberty of the sons of God. I acknowledge God’s divine presence in my life; therefore, His splendour, excellence and perfection are expressed through me. Amen.
