I AM YHVH’S ANOINTED – PART 2

4 – YHVH Has Given Me a Guarantee For The Future:
Read these next three verses that basically say the same thing. …given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. -- 2 Corinthians 1:22. Now he that hath wrought us for the self-same thing is YHVH, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. -- 2 Corinthians 5:5. after that ye heard the Word of Truth, the Gospel of your Salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Ruach Kodesh of Promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession -- Ephesians 1:13-14. When I buy a house, I have to put down a deposit, when you put down a deposit that means there is more money that is going to follow. Let us say that I found a house for 100,000 pounds and put 10,000 pounds down on it. I will begin making instalment payments until the loan is paid in full. YHVH has made a deposit in our hearts in the Person of Ruach HaKodesh. We have Ruach HaKodesh in our possession, meaning that there is more to come. When we buy something on an instalment plan, there is always a possibility that we might back out of the deal, even though we have put a down payment on whatever it is we are purchasing. But there is no backing out of this deal by YHVH. He has purchased us with His blood. YHVH has put down a deposit, guaranteeing that those of us who are in Moshiach will be delivered safely into the His Hands and our souls are in escrow, waiting for that final day of redemption. YHVH promises us that our futures are guaranteed and Ruach HaKodesh who indwells us is evidence that YHVH is going to come through on His Promise to us. This also means that this isn’t all that we are going to receive in Moshiach. If we took all of the benefits that we have that come simply from being a believer; that should be enough to satisfy us forever. But YHVH tells us that this is just the beginning, just the first instalment of what He has planned for us in the days to come. When author Stephen King was an unknown, 24-year-old high school teacher living in a rented mobile house with his wife and two kids, he sold short stories to magazines just to make ends meet. One of the pieces was especially hard to write. It dealt with [the worlds of girls,] which he did not know anything about. Over and over, he tried to wrestle the words onto the page, but the story was just not making sense. Disgusted with the first eight pages he wrote; he threw them out. That night, his wife Tabitha, saw the crumpled papers while collecting the trash. Curious, she read the incomplete story. Seeing its potential immediately, she insisted her husband finish it. [I told her it was too long for the markets I was selling to,] King said, [and that it might turn out to be a short novel.] She said, [Just write it!] Mr. King then protested that he knew almost nothing about girls. He’s wife replied, [I will help you.] She did. And for the last twenty-eight years, she has. When King did finish the book, Doubleday Company was willing to pay only a $2,500 advance, unsure of how readers would react to the material. The publishers did not need worried. Carrie became a national bestseller and a blockbuster motion picture. There is another King who rescues unfinished stories from the trash, which is where many of us do not like what we have written, cannot make things go the way we want or cannot see any prospect of a tidy ending. Just when it seems nobody knows or cares about the struggles we have endured, Yeshua stoops to salvage our crumpled dreams. He gently smoothes the crumpled remnants of our abandoned hopes and sees beyond the sometimes-anguished attempts we have made to make sense of our world and our place in it. He sees the potential that lies just past our fatigue and defeat. When we are willing, He hands back our life and says, [Finish the story.] [You are under My anointing, you can now stand firm, I have set you apart, I have placed My Seal upon you, I guarantee your future, all that is left is for you to recognize who you are in Me and no one can hold you back.]
