Adjusting to Promise
After following Moses out and being freed from such a prolonged miserable ordeal, Israel was willing to return to their former situation because they had now come up against unconventional circumstances. They resisted adjusting to the freedoms and responsibilities of promise. It takes courage to sail beyond the familiar harbor in order to possess and share the riches beyond the next horizon. Lk.15:17-18, Amp — “But when he [finally] came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired men have more than enough food, while I am dying here of hunger! 18 I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.”

Supply For Servants
Supply For Servants
By the time the prodigal gets to the pig pen, this guy is having to eat that which is nothing more than left-over and waste. He is suffering at this level because he has stepped out of his metron
(sphere of influence) not satisfied to yield to his father’s wise timing. Thankfully, he came to himself in that situation and realized that his father’s servants, in their metron, fared better than he did. Although he was a son, the servants were better off than him at this point and their position and circumstance was far more desirable than what he had being out of position as a son born to privilege and inheritance. After wasting the measure of rule he had carved out for himself, he realized that he had presumptuously grasped a measure of rule he was not ready for. If a private in the army can stay within his measure of rule, he will have all the food he needs, all the gasoline for his jeep, all the bullets for his rifle and all the medical care he will need; and he will never pay rent or electric bills (Mt 6:33-and all these things will be added unto you). His peers will never be allowed to promote him or talk him into taking the position of a captain. As his superior officers observe him, they will measure his abilities and promote him accordingly (Ps 75:6-7). The prodigal concluded, “My father’s servants have stayed within their measure of rule and look how well supplied they are.”
For not from the east nor from the west nor from the south come promotion and lifting up.
7 But God is the Judge! He puts down one and lifts up another. (Ps.75:6-7, Amp)

The Greater Inheritance
What is the story of the prodigal son about in Luke 15? It is about a father wanting his son to step into and operate in his true authority. But the prodigal takes a direction that
has nothing to do with the authority his father wills for him to walk in. His father’s desire for him would best suit him and would best prosper him and others, especially in the long haul. The… son is after a bag of gold, thinking that would be the means to reach what his senses told him was desirable and attainable. The father had a far greater inheritance for the boy than the boy was able to see through his impatience and misconceived sense of injustice. Through his greatly lacking vision, the son sees his inheritance as existing in a bag of gold. That’s right folks, one simple bag of gold that is not self-replenishing. Just because we can see something and the desire of it drives us, does not necessarily mean that “something” is what we are to aspire to.March 9, 2013 | Categories: Uncategorized | Tags: 1 Thessalonians 4:17, Apostle, Barbara Yoder, Beth Moore, Bible, Bill Johnson, Body of Christ, celebrate, CFNI, charismatic, Chuck Pierce, church, Cindy Jacobs, circumstances, comfort, conference, destiny, dreams, Dutch Sheets, encouragement, faith, father, FMCI, future, gifts of the Spirit, god speaks, grace, happy, healing, Holy Spirit, hope, Identity, intercession, Israel, Jeremiah 29:11, Jesus, Jim Goll, Jim Hodges, Joyce Meyer, Kathy Gabler, Kim Clement, Kingdom of God, Lakewood, Lance Wallnau, life, Luke 15, manifestation, March 6, March 8, Marty Gabler, Myles Munroe, obstacles, power of god, prayer, problems, prodigal, prophecy, prophesy, prophet, prophetic, prosperity, purpose, rejoice, Rick Joyner, righteousness, salvation, Savior, SEEC Ministries, sons of God, spiritual warfare, success, TD Jakes, victorious, victory, visions, Will of God, wisdom, word of god | Leave a comment
