You Have It, So Say It!

Matthew 25:29
29“For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.

Have you come across people who have little, yet even that little is taken away from them? On the other hand, there are those who already have much, yet they receive even more.

Jesus said, “To everyone who has, more will be given. From him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.” Notice that Jesus doesn’t go on to say what we have. He simply says, “But to everyone who has.”

So Jesus is talking about an attitude that says, “I have it!” If you say that you have it, you have it, and more will be given to you. But if you say that you don’t have it when you actually do because God has freely given us all things (Romans 8:32), then even what you have will be taken away — not by God but by the devil! The devil will take it away because you say that you don’t have it. You may have prayed, but you say that you don’t have it. So the devil goes to work because he has your agreement!

When you feel that you need something, God says that you are to ask of Him. And when you ask, believe that you receive it. (Mark 11:24) Say that you already have it even if you don’t see it in the physical realm yet, and one day, you will see it!

God is not saying, “Oh come on, pretend you see it. And if you pretend long enough, you will have it.” This is not a game! God is telling us to call forth those things that don’t exist as though they do. (Romans 4:17)

Today, we are talking about the haves and have-nots in the church. If you believe that it is yours, you will have it. You will see yourself possessing it and enjoying it, and more will be given. But if you say, “Well, I don’t feel it and I’m not sure if it will come,” in essence, you are saying that you don’t have it when you actually have it. Then, even what you have will be taken away. So say that you have it!
