Summary:
As we recognize our deep need for the divine nature we cry out in a hunger that appropriates His nature. Through the provision that Christ won on the cross we then become those overcomers and are able to walk as Christ walked in this earth.
Show Notes:
We cry out to the Father to receive of His divine nature.
As we worship we are in a place of appropriation.
As we move into the divine nature we overcome the things within and without.
The principles of waking with God we don't discard, but they are what we walk in as we grow in Him.
We give our selves to the Lord which opens the door of appropriation.
Our appropriation starts at the foot of His cross.
There should be an expectancy and anticipation within us that at the end of each day we have more of God in our lives than ever before.
Quotes:
...you start crying out for the divine nature in every aspect.
First thing in appropriation is a thanksgiving out of my mouth.
You're positioned in worship and appropriation, because worship is appropriation.
He's trying to put you in a corner so that you'll reach into the divine nature and become something and you become it, you overcome it.
God is giving you choices. It's up to you to take them. It's up to you to appropriate them.
You commit your spirit to Him. That opens the door for appropriation, and it opens the door to everything.
Worship, communion. Those are two major places we can appropriate.
This whole thing about the blood of Jesus Christ and that provision is the foundation of appropriation.
We've grown spiritually all of our lives, and we should still be growing, and we should still be appropriating, and anticipating, and declaring, and requiring that at the end of the day, you know what, I am richer spirit, soul, and body, and tomorrow I will be even more richer.
References:
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and pleading with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
Hebrews 4:3
For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said, “As I swore in My anger, They certainly shall not enter My rest,” although His works were finished from the foundation of the world.
But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn That shines brighter and brighter until the full day.
so that you will not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and endurance inherit the promises.
Takeaway:
Christ opened the door through His cross for us to cry out to the Father and receive of His divine nature. It's this appropriation of the nature of God that enables us to walk as His overcomes in this earth.
