Do you know that everything you need for your life is within your spirit? For you, creation is not going to happen from heaven again, it’s going to happen from within your spirit. So don’t wait on anybody to help you; all you need is right within you! When you hold an orange seed in your hands, it looks so small and insignificant, but inside it is all the potential to become a great tree. Its trunk, branches, leaves and every fruit that it would ever produce are all inside that one tiny seed!
When you were born, everything you would ever be was deposited in you, but they could never have been fully realized until you were born again. As soon as you were born again, those potentials received life, just as that orange seed receives life once sown into the soil. Now you can be anything you choose to be.
Philemon 1:6 says, you must acknowledge all the good things God has placed within you. You must wake up to this truth, agree with it and accept it. The Amplified Bible sheds more light on this and describes this acknowledgement as the “…full recognition and appreciation and understanding and precise knowledge of every good thing that is yours in our identification with Christ Jesus…” This means you have to fully recognize, appreciate, understand and have precise knowledge of all the things God through Christ has placed in your spirit. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says God has set the world in men’s hearts, that means He has planted eternity in the hearts and minds of men. So stop looking outwards; it’s time to look inward, look into your spirit, dig deep within you and draw from the vast, eternal deposits of goodness there. Then you go ahead and put those things to work for your benefit and the benefit of your world.
