What Is Actually Mine?

People like to know what they can or should expect from God. They wonder how much of their inheritance as children is available now, and how much awaits them in the 'Great Bye and Bye.'

I'm happy to say that the Bible clearly and emphatically spells it out for us in these few examples:

In the Gospel of Luke 10:17-24, Jesus sent out seventy-two followers with orders to heal people, cast out demons and tell the Gospel . . . The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord,even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
And he said to them, “Behold, I have given you authority ... over all the power of the enemy.

So we can say, 'that's mine' right now; the authority over all the power of the devil.

Next, the Apostle Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 2:7-12, that Now we have received ... the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. Such as the secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for our glory. . .
What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love him”—
these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit.

To top it off, Paul makes two of the most audacious and comprehensive declarations about what's presently available to each believer:
1. All of God’s promises find their “yes” of fulfillment in Him (Christ). 2 Corinthians 1:20, and
2. Every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a love gift from our wonderful heavenly Father. Ephesians 1:3

Now we have God's plain answer to our question, 'what's actually mine, now?'.

Do you know why you asked that question? Was it to know what is possible so that you might pursue and apprehend it? Or, was it to confirm that it's so far out of reach that you are excused from pursuit and apprehension?

When scripture promises that all things are possible to him that believes, and that God will reward anyone who pursues Him diligently, the question, ‘what’s mine?’ is satisfied.

Only one question matters:
'What Do I Actually Want?'

Ah yes. That’s where it is.
Here’s where you are laid bare and must face yourself as you are. You have your very own "esse quam videri" quandary; where you must choose "to be, rather than to appear".

Each one of us is called. The few who will, are chosen.
