You've Already Got It! - Week 1, Day 5 - The Gospel Truth

[Music] welcome to gospel truth with Andrew Wommack a teaching ministry that focuses on God's unconditional love and grace faith only appropriates what God has already provided by a grace it grace hasn't provided it your faith doesn't make God do anything once I learned that I already had everything that God was ever going to give me everything just started coming into place and now here's Andrew welcome to our Friday's broadcast of the gospel truth all of this week I've been teaching on a subject that I've entitled you've already got it and this is actually an application of the teaching that I did for a month on who you are in Christ I call that spirit soul and body and this is just an application that in the spirit we've already had Jesus produce everything and that his fullness lives on the inside of you you don't need to ask for more of God you don't need to ask for more faith you don't need to ask for healing you don't need to ask for wisdom you've actually got all of these things you need to draw out what is already in you and somebody might say well what's the difference whether I've already got it or whether I have to go get it the thing is that until I do something it's not going to manifest in my life it is a huge difference between trying to get God to do something and then just believing that he's done it and you receive it you know when you stop and think about it if you get into this mindset that I've got to get God to move I've got to get him to heal me to prosper me to bless me how do you force God to do anything and basically this is what religion is all about is how to get God to move how to get something from God how to you know in in the Old Testament they would grab ahold of the horns of the altar and just pray and beg God and this is in a sense what people do they grab hold of the Lord's just shake it until God comes out it is so much year two just excuse me rest in what God has already done God has already provided everything and the verse that I was using yesterday in Ephesians chapter one says blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath past-tense already blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus you don't need God to bless you when you got bored again you were blessed with everything that he has and is the fullness of the Godhead dwells in you bodily Colossians chapter 2 verse 9 and that's actually saying that in Christ dwells the fullness of the Godhead bodily and then verse 10 says we are complete in him since the fullness of the Godhead dwells in Jesus and Jesus dwells in us then we have the fullness of the Godhead dwelling in us bodily so you don't need God to do more you need to believe that you already are blessed and man this is the rest of this teaching I'll be going through this in more detail but just because you have it doesn't mean it's automatically gonna manifest itself there's things you have to learn like one of those things is that the power of God is voice activated you have to speak forth your faith Psalms chapter 91 I will say of the Lord he is my refuge in my fortress God wants to be everybody's refuge and fortress but not everybody is receiving that not everybody is saying it not everybody's cooperating with what God is doing but man it makes all the difference when you understand that I've already got it God has already given me everything that pertains under life and godliness through the knowledge of him that has called me to glory and virtue 2nd Peter chapter 1 verse 3 so again Ephesians chapter 1 verse 3 blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ according as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and without blame before him in love notice that he hath chosen us there's a lot of Christians that have this attitude that Oh God I know you bless people I know you use people would you please use me oh god please choose me choose me and they're just begging god I know that when I first got turned on to the Lord I had a burning desire on the inside of me to share the things that he had done in my life with everybody and I used to just pray all of the time Oh God used me God used me and one day the Lord spoke to me and he says I'll use you as soon as you get usable he says quit praying God use me and pray God make me usable and and then it dawned on me that the only reason I had a desire for God to use me was because God's the one that put that desire on the inside of me if a person just on their own no party is is wanting God to use them because of their carnal flesh because of their sinful human nature that is a godly thing and God is the one who puts that desire in there if you have a desire for a revival you don't have to beg God to give you revival it's God that put that desire for a revival on the inside of you and instead of you saying Oh God use me Oh God send revival and all of these things just learn what you have learn to cooperate start flowing with him and as the power of God flows through you you'll have all the revival you can handle God will use you until you literally don't have time to eat you don't have time for anything I mean you'll have to pray and say Oh God give me some time off amen I've experienced that so anyway he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world now this shows you that it had nothing to do with you God chose you before he ever created the heavens and the earth the world any of this God had already chosen you in Christ some people think how does this work well we with our finite minds don't totally comprehend but here's the way that I've been able to accept this is that God chose Jesus to be the savior of the world before he even created the world and before men fell over in the book of Revelation it talks about that there's other places that it says he was the lamb slain from the foundation of the world before men even sinned before any of this God didn't create us and then when we sinned he that he came up and said well I've got to do something to redeem him and so he came up with this idea of salvation and sending his son Jesus to be the payment for our sins as a response to our sin that's not what happened God knew that we were gonna sin God anticipated all of this and before we ever sinned before there was ever a need God had already in his heart in his mind slain Jesus as the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the world and he chose that Jesus would be raised from the dead be the firstborn among many brethren and that any person who would put faith in Jesus and the payment that Jesus made for our sins would be accepted with him so we were chosen before the foundation of the world in Christ in other words he chose Christ and anybody who chooses Jesus is also chosen because we have become a partaker of that calling but notice all of this happened before the foundation of the world God is not responding to us and I know that this sounds strange and people think oh no he responds to this pray you pray and then God does something no God has already created the supply let's say for instance that you need a financial miracle did you know that God when you pray isn't just all of a sudden responding to your prayer he had already made the provision he had already given you the power to get wealth Deuteronomy 8:18 before you ever needed that wealth it was all done and God was willing and able and ready to release his power and when you is not when God all of a sudden responds to you but your prayer should be a response to God saying God I thank you that just like it says you've you've already blessed me with all spiritual blessings but boy my bank account doesn't know it my landlord doesn't know it my gas tank in my car doesn't know it it's there empty I need help but you've already anticipated this and so now father I just pray and receive this blessing show me where it is show me how to go get it show me how to put my hand on the provision that you've already made for my need and when you get that attitude it's not God responding to you it's you responding to the fact that he's already provided now God where is it you know if you could imagine that somebody just you know put a million dollars in your bank account and then they told you they sent you a letter that I've got a million dollars in your bank account you didn't earn it you didn't deserve it it was just a total gift but even though they put this money in your bank account did you know it wouldn't put gas in your car it wouldn't put food on your table it wouldn't benefit you unless you believe it's there and unless you start writing checks on it or go and make a withdrawal you could have all of this money in your bank account and yet it wouldn't do you any good if you didn't know it was there and if you never did anything so this is in a sense what prayer is prayer is not saying Oh God give me but prayer is saying father thank you that you've already provided I've already got it now I am making a withdrawal I am gonna voice activate this I'm gonna say that God supplies all of my need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus I'm gonna go out and start this business or I'm gonna go to my job and I'm gonna work like it's to the Lord instead of to man and you're doing things but you aren't doing things trying to get a response from God you are doing things in response to what God has already provided you're just receiving and I know that there's people watching this program says you just dealing in semantics the bottom line is if I don't get out and work if I don't do something if I don't pray it's not gonna happen well that's true but it makes all the difference about God I am NOT making you do this I'm not asking you to do this I'm thinking you for what you've already done and now I'm gonna go do these things in faith because of what you've already promised what you've already done not trying to get you to do something here's the difference again go back to that example of putting a million dollars in the bank account you know what if you don't believe it was already done and so you're gonna go to the bank and you're just by faith gonna draw out a million dollars but you don't really know for sure that it's there then you're gonna get in trouble you're gonna be overdrawn they're gonna cancel your account and stuff it doesn't work that way but if you knew that it was there then you may still have to go to the bank and still fill out a withdrawal to be able to tap into that but it's totally different you have an assurance you have a confidence you have a piece you were arresting because you know it's there you aren't trying to make it be there there's a huge difference this is saying that he hath chosen us in Christ before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and without blame before him in love man I could spend all of this program talking about that one verse I'm gonna move on I'm trying to get way I'm trying to get through this entire first chapter but you need to meditate on this this is powerful in verse 5 it says having predestinated us in other words he's not going to predestinate us he has already predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself according to the good pleasure of his will to the praise of the glory of His grace where he and he hath made us accepted in the beloved he hath this isn't something that we are trying to become acceptable to God and again I believe that a vast majority of Christians are saying oh god I want to please you Oh I hope that you accept what I'm doing you've already been accepted it's already done you are already accepted did you know that the Greek word that was translated accepted in this verse is only used twice in the entire Bible the other time is when the angel Gabriel appeared unto Mary in Luke chapter one and said hail thou that art highly favoured the word that was translated highly favored is the exact same word that was translated accepted in this verse so this is saying that we have already been accepted we have already been highly favored you are highly favored you're already blessed by God God has already blessed you God wants to flow through you more than you want him to flow through you God wants to heal you more than you want to be healed he wants to prosper you more than you want to be prospered he wants your relationships to function and to succeed and flourish more than you want them to we don't need to beg God and ask him we need to instead believe that father you've already done this now I know you're gonna flow through me so is there something you want me to do or say in order to make this healing manifest to make these finances manifest to make this relationship work he is gonna flow through you but it just takes all of the strain out of it when you aren't trying to get God to bless you he's already blessed you you're already accepted you are already highly favored in verse 7 in whom we have redemption this isn't saying that you can have Redemption if you pray hard he might give you Redemption no when you received Jesus as your Lord you already have redemption through his blood the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace so Redemption here is defined Redemption is the forgiveness of sins your sins have already been forgiven man I've got another great teaching on this entitled eternal Redemption if you missed that teaching than I did on spirit soul and body I dealt with this in detail but out of Hebrews to 9 in chapter 10 the scripture teaches that all of your sins past present and even future sins the sins that you haven't even committed yet have already been paid for and atoned for and you are forgiven of past present and future sins now if you haven't heard me teach on that I'm sure that many of you think this is heresy but man I taught it straight from the Bible I used dozens of scriptures you need to get that teaching you have already got Redemption forgiveness of sins and verse 8 wherein he hath abounded towards us in all wisdom and prudence notice he hath abounded towards us now later in this same chapter Paul is going to ask God to give unto these Ephesians the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him some people might think well that's asking God to give you some but right here it says he's already given it to us so actually when you put these together it's saying that God is just praying that the wisdom and the revelation that he's already made available to us would begin to function that we would draw on it and begin to start understanding these things that he's already talking about so again in verse 8 he hath abounded towards us in all wisdom and prudence having made known unto us the mystery of his will notice that every one of these verses is not talking about what is possible what might happen in the future everything is in the past tense as a matter of fact if you were to read the book of Ephesians this whole book of Ephesians is written from this standpoint of what has already been accomplished and just praying that we would get a revelation of what we already have the first three chapters of Ephesians are all making this point it's already done you already have the same power that raised Christ from the dead you're already quickened made alive you're already saved you're already you know forgiven and he wants to show through us even to the principalities and powers in heaven the greatness of his power all of these things in the first three chapters it's already done then in Chapter four five and six since it's already done then how should we live and it basically starts talking about Ephesians chapter 4 verse 17 don't be like people that don't know the Lord that don't have things already done start using what God has given you and then it tells you how to live holy and how to relate to your husband and wife and then how to relate to government and people that are over you and things but the book of Ephesians all of these verses that I'm reading are in the past tense about what God is already done most of us are asking God to do what he's already done and that just doesn't work it honors God when you say father thank you that I am forgiven thank you that I am already accepted I am already blessed I already have wisdom and prudence I already have been chosen you've chosen me you've already got a plan for my entire life instead of begging God O God do something with my life come and say God you've got a plan for my life I'm chosen in you before the foundation of the world what is that plan help me to understand help me to cooperate it's totally different in verse 9 he says having made known unto us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself somebody said but I don't know the pleasure of his good will you do in your spirit you know all things first John chapter 2 verse 20 you have an unction from the Holy One and you know all things you don't know it with your little peanut-sized brain up here but in your spirit you have the mind of Christ 1st Corinthians chapter 2 verse 16 and as you pray in tongues the Bible says it's your spirit praying the part of you that has the mind of Christ and it says in 1st Corinthians chapter 14 I believe verse 2 that when you're praying you're praying the hidden wisdom of God and then 1st Corinthians 14 13 says when you pray in tongues pray that you interpret so just ask God to explain to you what your spirit all already knows you have the mind of Christ you know all things you're speaking out of your spirit and now just to ask God and interpret it to you and you can draw out that knowledge but just as this verse says he has already given us showing us the mystery of his will we know the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure it's in there revelation knowledge is there but you have to draw it out I mean these are powerful truths in verse 10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ both which are in heaven and which are on earth even in him in whom also we have obtained notice it's not saying that we can obtain that if you do everything right you might obtain you have obtained an inheritance you've already got it it's in you and it'll go on and say this he's praying that the eyes are your understanding so it would be enlightened so that you could see the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe and what this power is in verse 18 it says what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the Saints God's glory and his riches aren't just in heaven heavens gonna be a blast but did you know that in you you have already obtained an inheritance it says over in 2nd Thessalonians chapter 2 that you have been called to the obtaining of the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ you already have the glory of God on the inside of you and I know some of you are immediately going and looking in the mirror and say where I can't see it it's not in your body it's not in your mind in your emotions it's in your spirit the glory of God dwells in you you have obtained an inheritance being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his will that we should be to the praise of his glory who first trusted in Christ in whom ye also trusted after that ye heard the word of truth the gospel of your salvation in whom also after that you believe you were sealed with that holy spirit of promise this isn't something that is going to happen it's something that's already happened if you watched my teaching the last month on television I was talking about that our spirit is born again in righteousness and true holiness Ephesians 4:24 and then according to this verse we're immediately vacuum-packed we're sealed so that there is a seal around your spirit and if you sin as a Christian that sin can enter into your physical body and give Satan an inroad with sickness and disease and things like this it can enter into your mind and emotions and give Satan an inroad for depression discouragement unforgiveness hurt bitterness all these things but it can't penetrate the seal around your spirit your spirit remains righteous and truly holy and it's something that's already done you were sealed
