Manifestation: On Earth as it is in Heaven


Manifestation: On Earth as it is in Heaven
Mathew 6:10, 1 John 3:8, Ps 119:89

Where God is present, there is evidence of grace. Evidence of His presence, power and ability must be seen or experienced. Electricity in a circuit is not evident until a connection is switched on to an electric gadget.  A TV signal is already in the atmosphere but requires an antennae and a system that produces evidence of a picture. The nature of picture and its quality is as good as the receptor system. Similarly, everything that we say God is doing, or should do, is really a mere manifestation of what God has already settled by his word in the spirit.  We only need to make the conditions for manifestation, such as proper positioning, obedience, and faith, joy, and expectation, right. Human vocabulary alone is not enough to manifest God. He has to appear.

The psalmist noted, ‘forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven’ (Ps 119:89).   This verse means the word is finalized and nothing is still owing, or remaining. When God spoke, the tills in heaven rang. Now is time to collect what is already paid for the way you collect a parcel or gift someone else paid for you in full. The challenge is for you to make real what has already been established in heaven. The Lord Jesus said pray ‘thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.’ This prayer is for manifestation of what is already in existence to be seen in the natural. It is a prayer for the translation of potential to power. A prayer for the coming to pass of God’s promise. Revelation is seeing in the spirit what has not yet manifest. Manifestation is seeing its reality with physical senses. What is divinely ordinary becomes the humanly extraordinary. What is spiritually natural becomes the humanly supernatural. The transcendent becomes immanent. What was hoped becomes a reality. What was a promise becomes a possession. What was heavenly title becomes earthly possession. The issue is how to reduce/deduce spiritual truth to something tangible you can see, experience and relate with.

Jesus, the Word from the beginning, was manifested to destroy the works of the evil one (John 1:1; 1 John 3:8; John 4:4).  The Holy Spirit has been sent to manifest Christ and show you all things freely given. Jesus came to grant you title, a right, and permit to all that God has settled (John 1:12). The Holy Spirit also manifests the sons of God. The whole earth is now looking out for the manifestation of the sons of God. The sons of man with human limitations are already known. The world now wants to see the sons of God with divine nature and evidence.

The Bible is overflowing with examples of manifestations that occur from full obedience to God’s word based on confidence that it is already settled.  Elijah trusted God for rain and was patient as Gehaz checked seven times when there was a delay. A cloud manifested and turned to heavy rain (I Kings 18:53). Naaman even with reluctance obeyed the already settled word of God by dipping in the Jordan river seven times and saw his cleansing from leprosy manifest (II Kings 5:13). Peter trusted God’s word and walked on water (Mathew 14:29) but shifted from obedience and began to sink. What do you need to obey in full to see manifestation in your life?
