Come To Me Present Tense

·

Jonathan Cahnby Jonathan Cahn

On the Feast of Tabernacles, the nation of Israel would pray for the outpouring of rain and God’s blessings on the land. So it’s no accident, that on that same feast, the Feast of Tabernacles, that Messiah said, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in me, as the Scirpture has said, out of his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water.” He spoke of the Spirit. And He did so on the Feast of Tabernacles because it was then that Israel was praying for a future outpouring of rain and blessings. But notice something – they were praying for water, for rain, to be poured out in the future. But Messiah spoke in the present tense. In other words, the life of the Spirit, and the life of abundance, is never dependent on waiting for some blessing to happen in the future. It’s now. So don’t live a life waiting for God’s blessings. Enter His blessings now. Enter the abundant life now. For the Spirit and the blessings of abundant life are now. And the only time to enter it – is now!

Today’s Mission – What blessing from God are you still waiting for? Live in the blessing of God now, start walking in it, start living it.

The Eyes Of Joshua & Caleb

Joshua and Caleb never pretended that there weren’t giants in the land. They knew full well what they were up against. In fact, Joshua would become the general to defeat those giants. Then what was it that separated Joshua and Caleb from the other ten spies who also saw the giants but brought back a bad report to the Israelites? The difference was that though Joshua and Caleb saw the giants – they didn’t dwell on them. They didn’t focus on them. Instead they focused on the blessings, the promise, the faithfulness, and the power of God. And they were the ones who entered and apprehended all that God had promised.

So with you, it’s not that you don’t or won’t have problems in your life. You will. It’s part of life. The key is – don’t focus on them – don’t dwell on them. They’re only giants. They’re there in your life to manifest the power, the victory, the faithfulness, and the triumph of God. They’re only giants. Set your focus instead on the giant power, the giant love, and the giant faithfulness of your God and you too will enter the land of blessing God has promised you.

Today’s Mission – Today, choose to avoid dwelling on the negative – and choose to dwell on that which is positive and of God.
