All
Things
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"For all things are
yours, and ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's" (1 Cor. 3:21,23).
Most people wouldn't
think the Corinthians could get anything from God; they were so carnal.
Paul began this chapter by telling them they were carnal, yet he added,
"all things are yours."
When you were born
into the family of God, the right and privilege to use the Name of Jesus
became yours. Everything Jesus bought and paid for automatically became
yours. But it's up to you to use what belongs to you.
Consider the story
of the prodigal son. If the prodigal is a type of the sinner or
backslider, and the father is a type of God, then the elder brother is a
type of the Christian who has not strayed. When the elder brother came
in from the field, he heard music and dancing. A servant told him, "Your
brother came home, and your father has killed the fatted calf."
The elder brother
became angry, and wouldn't go in and join the festivities. So his father
went outside and entreated him. "No, I'm not coming in," the elder
brother said, "I've served you faithfully all these years. I never went
away. I didn't go off and spend your money - and you never made a feast
for me." "Son," the father said, "All that I have is thine" (Luke
15:31).
Does God have what
you need? If He does, then it is already yours. But you'll have to
appropriate it.
Confession:
All things are mine. I am Christ's, and Christ is God's. The Name of
Jesus belongs to me. I can use it. I will use it. All the Father has is
mine!
