What do you want?

"So I tell you, when you pray for something, BELIEVE that you have ALREADY RECEIVED it. Then IT WILL BE yours. (Mark 11:24 NIrV)

(KJV) Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

This is one of those "Jesus" statements" that is beyond the natural minds ability to fully accept or comprehend. I have read tons of commentary trying to "explain away" this apparently wide open statement. Actually it doesn't say anything in it, before it, or after it about being the will of God or being righteous or anything. It just is what it is and says what it says. It is a GOD thing that is outside the boundaries of our finite intelligence. The King James in this instance actually used the best word here from the Greek aiteō and just generally means whatever you want or desire which make it YOUR will not God's.... I cant figure it out - just is what it is, and I have to believe it even if I dont believe enough to make mountains move or throw trees around Jesus said it was possible... I think He was just teaching us about the power of faith - faith that is beyond the natural and most likely will not be experienced without a radical change in our nature. I believe this will come with spiritual maturity that frankly we just have not reached yet.

WAITING FOR THE SONS OF GOD TO BE REVEALED?

Rom 8:19 AMP  For [even the whole] creation (all nature) waits expectantly and longs earnestly for God's sons to be made known [waits for the revealing, the disclosing of their sonship]. – Waiting for the disclosing of “THEIR” their own realization or revelation of their own Sonship; which will bring us into the next phase of the Kingdom of God on earth.

Luk 17:21 KJV  Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. If you look two verses back you will see that Jesus said this to those hypocritical Pharisees…..

2Co 3:17-18 NIV  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.  (18)  And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

Looking for the Kingdom of God

or the Sons of God to be revealed

or come?

Look no farther…..

Peace, Grace, and Love to you,
