Release the masterpiece!

Ephesians 2:10 “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” The word Workmanship is the greek word Poiema which means: poetry, masterwork, work of art, His creation, accomplishment, masterpiece. We were created for good works!

  1. This means that we are capable of doing amazing things for God’s glory. It’s not only a certain breed of person that can do good works. We all have that potential. We all are God’s masterpiece. 
  2. Unfortunately, there are a lot of masterpieces that never get displayed, so the world misses out on the joy of their beauty.God gave each of us wonderful gifts and abilities. However, it’s up to us to walk in those gifts.a) He set us in His Body by His grace!                                                                                        b) God set us in the Body as it pleased Him! 1 Corinthians 12:18.                           c) God set us in His Body for the profit of all! 1 Corinthians 12:7                             d) There are no unnecessary members in the Body 1 Corinthians 12:22

    Since you are already part of His Body, and it pleases Him that you are set in His Body, it’s time to release the masterpiece within you.

Greater things are on their way!

I’ve heard this thought so many times from parents: “I want my child to do better and to reach greater heights than me.” I feel the same way. Parents feel so proud when their children accomplish great things. They will show you their pictures and videos, and will talk all day long about the successes of their children, It’s as if they themselves had achieved those victories. Well, guess what: God, who is the perfect Father, wants you to do great things! In Matthew 7:11, Jesus said: “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” Your Heavenly Father has blessed you with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places. He has already empowered you to live victoriously in this life. You have been “born again.” You now have His DNA. Jesus said we would do greater things: “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, anyone who believes in Me [as Savior] will also do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these [in extent and outreach], because I am going to the Father.” (John 14:12 (AMP). Note that He said we would do greater things than He did “in extent and outreach.” As part of His Body, we will go to places He never went in His earthly ministry. We will heal more people than He did because His Body is all over the world. You are part of His Body. He has already empowered you. Your heavenly Father has already authorized you. It’s time to reject any hindering thoughts, past failures, negative words, fears and doubts, and begin to be who God already authorized you to be. There are many who are waiting for you to show up as God’s ambassador and release the life-giving anointing and gifting that is within you! Your heavenly Father will be very pleased with your successes and victories. Your victories are His victories!
