Philemon 6 [KJV]
That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good of every good thing which is you in Christ Jesus.
The word “communication” here regards to “what you participate in” or “what you share”. The participation/sharing of our faith will become operative by fully discerning and recognizing every good thing which is you in Christ. This kind of recognition or discernment is obtained by the study and meditation of Word.
First and foremost, agree with the Word of God, that everything concerning you is good. Every item of your life is good; nothing missing or broken, you’re perfect and accepted in the beloved by God.
There’s no sickness, failure or lack on my path; there’s joy and progress in my walk with the Lord.
The sharing of your faith is very important but not the most important thing here is acknowledging that everything in us good, because Christ the source of all good things lives in us. We can only supply to the world and the Church the amount of Christ we have acknowledged, fully discerned and recognized.
It is a good thing to teach or relate what we know to others, but here Paul says that the sharing of our faith will become effective and operative when we come arrive, agree with and acknowledge every good thing which is us in Christ Jesus.
The revelation of Christ is the revelation of the believer; if it is possible for Christ, it is possible for me. If it is good for Christ, it is good for me. If all things are under Christ; therefore, all things are under me.
1 John 4:17 (KJV)
Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
The believer is saved to mirror Jesus in power, authority, integrity, influence and all possibilities. Christ does not exist differently for the believer. Christ is my mirror of completeness and possibilities’ not the economy or the circumstances around me.
If Christ will be seen clearly by all men and if the church will fully come to her rightful place; hence, full and exact knowledge of Christ required, revelation knowledge must keep on coming until Christ is unveiled and formed in us completely; and this cannot happen unless the written word and the teaching of the Word is given the most important place.
Faith operates better with awareness. Faith is made stronger by knowledge. The knowledge of the Word is the source of faith. You cannot grow in faith beyond your knowledge of the Word of God. Faith comes by the Word. The same goes for prayer. The highest motivation for prayer comes from the full comprehension of God’s word, who we are and what we have. A successful prayer life cannot be sustained and maintained without the understanding of the Word.
Each time the word of God causes our faith level to meet with the level of God’s faith, prayer will surely come forth on its own accord. At this point, we are poised to think and do the impossible.
However, this benchmark may not be reached all the time; we need to revisit the Word over and over again to master this level of faith until it is stabilized.
The biggest enthusiasm for every work for God and walk with God lies in the full knowledge of His Word and acknowledging that the possibilities of Christ Jesus are our possibilities.
DECLARATION
Today, I acknowledge that in me resides every good thing. I am sufficient in Christ Jesus. I am grow daily in my knowledge of God’s word. I yield my total being to the Lordship of the Word. I allow every word of God to gain full ascendancy in my life. Glory to God!
