The Now

Happy Weekend everyone,

Yesterday, I wrote on what I call “The Now”, explaining that yesterday, today and tomorrow doesn’t exist, all that we have is Now. I explained that Albert Einstein propounded a theory very much related to what I explained yesterday, as he said time is relative and that time is just an illusion. I explained how Jesus in Matthew 6 said we shouldn’t worry about tomorrow but that today is enough to worry on its own. He also said that only unbelievers (in the real sense of the word Gentile), worry over what to eat, drink, wear and other things that bring worry, and we shouldn’t worry over all these things because our heavenly Father knows that we need all these things. All these I explained that what Jesus passed across was that tomorrow doesn’t exist only today, in other words only that which we are experiencing first hand at the moment is what exist which is enough worry on its own, and why is that? It is so because we are to do what is right as we are living the now.

Today is a continuation from yesterday. I said that man lives his life through probability and assumption which was why Jesus said we shouldn’t worry over what we are not sure of and let the Big Boy (the Holy Spirit) handle it, who is the only one who knows the end from the beginning. The truth is that our entire life already exists, it is just for us to experience it first hand as the now that remains. In other words, our future already exists but we haven’t experienced it yet, which doesn’t change the truth that our future already exist. This could sound mysterious to you but it isn’t because if it is then you never understood faith all the while this is because faith is simply believing in your future which already exists!

Many times when we say we believe a thing by faith, we often times hope for that thing to exist, but the truth is that that which we think is, would exist thinking it doesn’t exist but already exist. Let me make this clearer; when a message of faith is given to us, many times we believe it through hope and not through faith, in other words, we add it to the list of things we wish we would have if we are being positive, and when it happens we come out to say that it was because we had faith, but all you did was to be hopeful through positivity. What the message of faith is is that there is a message from the future ordained by God that already exist which the Holy Spirit reveals to us either directly or indirectly.

When we receive a message of faith, all that we are to do is to believe it or not to believe; also, there are realms of belief, that is, what we would become if we choose to believe or not to believe, both ends already exist, but there is a path ordained by God for you to follow, but is left for you to follow that path or not, because the result already exists.

In the popular verse of the Bible, Hebrews 11:1, it says, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Three things are key in this verse: “substance”, which means that it exists already, which leads to the second key thing which is “hoped for”, the substance is that which we hoped for, which is now past tense, meaning we no longer hope for it because it now exists. The third key thing is “evidence of things not seen”, which means that even though it now exists, we won’t see it at our now, but we believe that it exist already which we would exist in “the future now” because it already exists! But how do we know what would exist, in the real sense already exist?

If you look at the verse carefully, you will find out that it says substance, which means it is already in the present tense and not in the future tense. Our life is a total package which has happened already! Our life is in the now and this was what Jesus implied in Matthew 6:25-34, which is that we are to view our whole life which already exists now, but how do we do that when we have only a tip of this which we are experiencing it as we live? Only a person who knows the beginning to end would give us our whole life as a whole, which when we receive it and believe it becomes faith.

So, what is the full package of faith which God always wanted us to understand? Log on tomorrow and I will explain this and also continue explaining “The Now”.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!

Log on next time.
