Most Christians believe that God can do anything, and many believe that He has made promises to heal, deliver, bless, and prosper His children. But some of these same believers find themselves unable to reconcile the Word with what they experience. They live in frustration or disillusionment, wondering why God’s promises don’t seem to be working for them. But God is no respecter of persons (Rom. 2:11). What He has done for one, He’s done for all.

welcome to gospel truth with Andrew
Wommack a teaching ministry that focuses
on God’s unconditional love and grace
faith only appropriates what God has
already provided by a grace it grace
hasn’t provided it your faith doesn’t
make God do anything once I learned that
I already had everything that God was
ever going to give me everything just
started coming into place and now here’s
Andrew welcome to our Friday’s broadcast
of the gospel truth all of this week
I’ve been teaching on a subject that
I’ve entitled you’ve already got it and
this is actually an application of the
teaching that I did for a month on who
you are in Christ I call that spirit
soul and body and this is just an
application that in the spirit we’ve
already had Jesus produce everything and
that his fullness lives on the inside of
you you don’t need to ask for more of
God you don’t need to ask for more faith
you don’t need to ask for healing you
don’t need to ask for wisdom you’ve
actually got all of these things you
need to draw out what is already in you
and somebody might say well what’s the
difference
whether I’ve already got it or whether I
have to go get it the thing is that
until I do something it’s not going to
manifest in my life it is a huge
difference between trying to get God to
do something and then just believing
that he’s done it and you receive it you
know when you stop and think about it if
you get into this mindset that I’ve got
to get God to move I’ve got to get him
to heal me to prosper me to bless me how
do you force God to do anything and
basically this is what religion is all
about is how to get God to move how to
get something from God how to you know
in in the Old Testament they would grab
ahold of the horns of the altar and just
pray and beg God and this is in a sense
what people do they grab hold of the
Lord’s just shake it until God comes out
it is so much
year two just excuse me rest in what God
has already done God has already
provided everything and the verse that I
was using yesterday in Ephesians chapter
one says blessed be the God and father
of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath
past-tense
already blessed us with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places in Christ
Jesus you don’t need God to bless you
when you got bored again you were
blessed with everything that he has and
is the fullness of the Godhead dwells in
you bodily Colossians chapter 2 verse 9
and that’s actually saying that in
Christ dwells the fullness of the
Godhead bodily and then verse 10 says we
are complete in him since the fullness
of the Godhead dwells in Jesus and Jesus
dwells in us then we have the fullness
of the Godhead dwelling in us bodily so
you don’t need God to do more you need
to believe that you already are blessed
and man this is the rest of this
teaching I’ll be going through this in
more detail but just because you have it
doesn’t mean it’s automatically gonna
manifest itself there’s things you have
to learn like one of those things is
that the power of God is voice activated
you have to speak forth your faith
Psalms chapter 91 I will say of the Lord
he is my refuge in my fortress God wants
to be everybody’s refuge and fortress
but not everybody is receiving that not
everybody is saying it not everybody’s
cooperating with what God is doing but
man it makes all the difference when you
understand that I’ve already got it God
has already given me everything that
pertains under life and godliness
through the knowledge of him that has
called me to glory and virtue 2nd Peter
chapter 1 verse 3
so again Ephesians chapter 1 verse 3
blessed be the God and father of our
Lord Jesus Christ who hath blessed us
with all spiritual blessings in heavenly
places in Christ according as he hath
chosen us in him
before the foundation of the world that
we should be holy and without blame
before him in love notice that he hath
chosen us there’s a lot of Christians
that have this attitude that Oh God I
know you bless people I know you use
people would you please use me
oh god please choose me choose me and
they’re just begging god I know that
when I first got turned on to the Lord
I had a burning desire on the inside of
me to share the things that he had done
in my life with everybody and I used to
just pray all of the time Oh God used me
God used me and one day the Lord spoke
to me and he says I’ll use you as soon
as you get usable he says quit praying
God use me and pray God make me usable
and and then it dawned on me that the
only reason I had a desire for God to
use me was because God’s the one that
put that desire on the inside of me if a
person just on their own no party is is
wanting God to use them because of their
carnal flesh because of their sinful
human nature that is a godly thing and
God is the one who puts that desire in
there if you have a desire for a revival
you don’t have to beg God to give you
revival it’s God that put that desire
for a revival on the inside of you and
instead of you saying Oh God use me Oh
God send revival and all of these things
just learn what you have learn to
cooperate start flowing with him and as
the power of God flows through you
you’ll have all the revival you can
handle God will use you until you
literally don’t have time to eat you
don’t have time for anything I mean
you’ll have to pray and say Oh God give
me some time off amen I’ve experienced
that so anyway he hath chosen us in him
before the foundation of the world now
this shows you that it had nothing to do
with you God chose you before he ever
created the heavens and the earth the
world any of this God had already chosen
you in Christ
some people think how does this work
well we with our finite minds don’t
totally comprehend
but here’s the way that I’ve been able
to accept this is that God chose Jesus
to be the savior of the world before he
even created the world and before men
fell over in the book of Revelation it
talks about that there’s other places
that it says he was the lamb slain from
the foundation of the world before men
even sinned before any of this God
didn’t create us and then when we sinned
he that he came up and said well I’ve
got to do something to redeem him and so
he came up with this idea of salvation
and sending his son Jesus to be the
payment for our sins
as a response to our sin that’s not what
happened
God knew that we were gonna sin God
anticipated all of this and before we
ever sinned before there was ever a need
God had already in his heart in his mind
slain Jesus as the Lamb of God slain
from the foundation of the world and he
chose that Jesus would be raised from
the dead be the firstborn among many
brethren and that any person who would
put faith in Jesus and the payment that
Jesus made for our sins would be
accepted with him so we were chosen
before the foundation of the world in
Christ in other words he chose Christ
and anybody who chooses Jesus is also
chosen because we have become a partaker
of that calling but notice all of this
happened before the foundation of the
world God is not responding to us and I
know that this sounds strange and people
think oh no he responds to this pray you
pray and then God does something no God
has already created the supply let’s say
for instance that you need a financial
miracle did you know that God when you
pray isn’t just all of a sudden
responding to your prayer he had already
made the provision he had already given
you the power to get wealth Deuteronomy
8:18 before you ever needed that wealth
it was all done and God was willing and
able and ready to release his power and
when you
is not when God all of a sudden responds
to you but your prayer should be a
response to God saying God I thank you
that just like it says you’ve you’ve
already blessed me with all spiritual
blessings but boy my bank account
doesn’t know it my landlord doesn’t know
it my gas tank in my car doesn’t know it
it’s there empty I need help but you’ve
already anticipated this and so now
father I just pray and receive this
blessing
show me where it is show me how to go
get it show me how to put my hand on the
provision that you’ve already made for
my need and when you get that attitude
it’s not God responding to you it’s you
responding to the fact that he’s already
provided now God where is it
you know if you could imagine that
somebody just you know put a million
dollars in your bank account and then
they told you they sent you a letter
that I’ve got a million dollars in your
bank account you didn’t earn it you
didn’t deserve it it was just a total
gift but even though they put this money
in your bank account did you know it
wouldn’t put gas in your car it wouldn’t
put food on your table it wouldn’t
benefit you unless you believe it’s
there and unless you start writing
checks on it or go and make a withdrawal
you could have all of this money in your
bank account and yet it wouldn’t do you
any good if you didn’t know it was there
and if you never did anything so this is
in a sense what prayer is prayer is not
saying Oh God give me but prayer is
saying father thank you that you’ve
already provided I’ve already got it now
I am making a withdrawal I am gonna
voice activate this I’m gonna say that
God supplies all of my need according to
his riches in glory by Christ Jesus I’m
gonna go out and start this business or
I’m gonna go to my job and I’m gonna
work like it’s to the Lord instead of to
man and you’re doing things but you
aren’t doing things trying to get a
response from God you are doing things
in response to what God has already
provided you’re just receiving and I
know that there’s people watching this
program says you
just dealing in semantics the bottom
line is if I don’t get out and work if I
don’t do something if I don’t pray it’s
not gonna happen well that’s true but it
makes all the difference about God I am
NOT making you do this I’m not asking
you to do this I’m thinking you for what
you’ve already done and now I’m gonna go
do these things in faith because of what
you’ve already promised what you’ve
already done not trying to get you to do
something here’s the difference again go
back to that example of putting a
million dollars in the bank account you
know what if you don’t believe it was
already done and so you’re gonna go to
the bank and you’re just by faith gonna
draw out a million dollars but you don’t
really know for sure that it’s there
then you’re gonna get in trouble you’re
gonna be overdrawn they’re gonna cancel
your account and stuff it doesn’t work
that way but if you knew that it was
there then you may still have to go to
the bank and still fill out a withdrawal
to be able to tap into that but it’s
totally different you have an assurance
you have a confidence you have a piece
you were arresting because you know it’s
there you aren’t trying to make it be
there there’s a huge difference this is
saying that he hath chosen us in Christ
before the foundation of the world that
we should be holy and without blame
before him in love man I could spend all
of this program talking about that one
verse I’m gonna move on I’m trying to
get way I’m trying to get through this
entire first chapter but you need to
meditate on this this is powerful in
verse 5 it says having predestinated us
in other words he’s not going to
predestinate us he has already
predestinated us unto the adoption of
children by Jesus Christ to himself
according to the good pleasure of his
will to the praise of the glory of His
grace where he and he hath made us
accepted in the beloved he hath this
isn’t something that we are trying to
become acceptable to God and again I
believe that a vast majority of
Christians are saying oh god I want to
please you Oh
I hope that you accept what I’m doing
you’ve already been accepted it’s
already done you are already accepted
did you know that the Greek word that
was translated accepted in this verse is
only used twice in the entire Bible the
other time is when the angel Gabriel
appeared unto Mary in Luke chapter one
and said hail thou that art highly
favoured
the word that was translated highly
favored is the exact same word that was
translated accepted in this verse so
this is saying that we have already been
accepted we have already been highly
favored you are highly favored you’re
already blessed by God God has already
blessed you God wants to flow through
you more than you want him to flow
through you God wants to heal you more
than you want to be healed he wants to
prosper you more than you want to be
prospered he wants your relationships to
function and to succeed and flourish
more than you want them to we don’t need
to beg God and ask him we need to
instead believe that father you’ve
already done this now I know you’re
gonna flow through me so is there
something you want me to do or say in
order to make this healing manifest to
make these finances manifest to make
this relationship work he is gonna flow
through you but it just takes all of the
strain out of it when you aren’t trying
to get God to bless you
he’s already blessed you you’re already
accepted you are already highly favored
in verse 7 in whom we have redemption
this isn’t saying that you can have
Redemption if you pray hard he might
give you Redemption no when you received
Jesus as your Lord you already have
redemption through his blood the
forgiveness of sins according to the
riches of His grace
so Redemption here is defined Redemption
is the forgiveness of sins your sins
have already been forgiven man I’ve got
another great teaching on this entitled
eternal Redemption if you missed that
teaching than I did on spirit soul and
body I dealt with this in detail but out
of Hebrews
to 9 in chapter 10 the scripture teaches
that all of your sins past present and
even future sins the sins that you
haven’t even committed yet have already
been paid for and atoned for and you are
forgiven of past present and future sins
now if you haven’t heard me teach on
that I’m sure that many of you think
this is heresy but man I taught it
straight from the Bible I used dozens of
scriptures you need to get that teaching
you have already got Redemption
forgiveness of sins and verse 8 wherein
he hath abounded towards us in all
wisdom and prudence notice he hath
abounded towards us now later in this
same chapter Paul is going to ask God to
give unto these Ephesians the spirit of
wisdom and revelation in the knowledge
of him some people might think well
that’s asking God to give you some but
right here it says he’s already given it
to us so actually when you put these
together it’s saying that God is just
praying that the wisdom and the
revelation that he’s already made
available to us would begin to function
that we would draw on it and begin to
start understanding these things that
he’s already talking about so again in
verse 8 he hath abounded towards us in
all wisdom and prudence having made
known unto us the mystery of his will
notice that every one of these verses is
not talking about what is possible what
might happen in the future everything is
in the past tense as a matter of fact if
you were to read the book of Ephesians
this whole book of Ephesians is written
from this standpoint of what has already
been accomplished and just praying that
we would get a revelation of what we
already have the first three chapters of
Ephesians are all making this point it’s
already done you already have the same
power that raised Christ from the dead
you’re already quickened made alive
you’re already saved you’re already you
know forgiven and he wants to show
through us even to the principalities
and powers in heaven the greatness of
his power all of these things
in the first three chapters it’s already
done then in Chapter four five and six
since it’s already done then how should
we live and it basically starts talking
about Ephesians chapter 4 verse 17 don’t
be like people that don’t know the Lord
that don’t have things already done
start using what God has given you and
then it tells you how to live holy and
how to relate to your husband and wife
and then how to relate to government and
people that are over you and things but
the book of Ephesians all of these
verses that I’m reading are in the past
tense about what God is already done
most of us are asking God to do what
he’s already done and that just doesn’t
work it honors God when you say father
thank you that I am forgiven thank you
that I am already accepted I am already
blessed I already have wisdom and
prudence I already have been chosen
you’ve chosen me you’ve already got a
plan for my entire life instead of
begging God O God do something with my
life come and say God you’ve got a plan
for my life I’m chosen in you before the
foundation of the world what is that
plan help me to understand help me to
cooperate it’s totally different in
verse 9 he says having made known unto
us the mystery of his will according to
his good pleasure which he hath purposed
in himself
somebody said but I don’t know the
pleasure of his good will you do in your
spirit you know all things first John
chapter 2 verse 20 you have an unction
from the Holy One and you know all
things you don’t know it with your
little peanut-sized brain up here but in
your spirit you have the mind of Christ
1st Corinthians chapter 2 verse 16 and
as you pray in tongues the Bible says
it’s your spirit praying the part of you
that has the mind of Christ and it says
in 1st Corinthians chapter 14 I believe
verse 2 that when you’re praying you’re
praying the hidden wisdom of God and
then 1st Corinthians 14 13 says when you
pray in tongues pray that you interpret
so just ask God to explain to you what
your spirit all
already knows you have the mind of
Christ you know all things you’re
speaking out of your spirit and now just
to ask God and interpret it to you and
you can draw out that knowledge but just
as this verse says he has already given
us showing us the mystery of his will we
know the mystery of his will according
to his good pleasure it’s in there
revelation knowledge is there but you
have to draw it out I mean these are
powerful truths in verse 10 that in the
dispensation of the fullness of times he
might gather together in one all things
in Christ both which are in heaven and
which are on earth even in him in whom
also we have obtained notice it’s not
saying that we can obtain that if you do
everything right you might obtain you
have obtained an inheritance you’ve
already got it it’s in you and it’ll go
on and say this he’s praying that the
eyes are your understanding so it would
be enlightened so that you could see the
exceeding greatness of his power towards
us who believe and what this power is in
verse 18 it says what the riches of the
glory of his inheritance in the Saints
God’s glory and his riches aren’t just
in heaven heavens gonna be a blast but
did you know that in you you have
already obtained an inheritance it says
over in 2nd Thessalonians chapter 2 that
you have been called to the obtaining of
the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ you
already have the glory of God on the
inside of you and I know some of you are
immediately going and looking in the
mirror and say where I can’t see it it’s
not in your body it’s not in your mind
in your emotions it’s in your spirit the
glory of God dwells in you you have
obtained an inheritance being
predestinated according to the purpose
of him who worketh all things after the
counsel of his will that we should be to
the praise of his glory who first
trusted in Christ in whom ye also
trusted after that ye heard the word of
truth the gospel of your salvation in
whom also after that you believe
you were sealed with that holy spirit of
promise this isn’t something that is
going to happen it’s something that’s
already happened if you watched my
teaching the last month on television I
was talking about that our spirit is
born again in righteousness and true
holiness Ephesians 4:24 and then
according to this verse we’re
immediately vacuum-packed
we’re sealed so that there is a seal
around your spirit and if you sin as a
Christian that sin can enter into your
physical body and give Satan an inroad
with sickness and disease and things
like this it can enter into your mind
and emotions and give Satan an inroad
for depression discouragement
unforgiveness hurt bitterness all these
things but it can’t penetrate the seal
around your spirit your spirit remains
righteous and truly holy and it’s
something that’s already done you were
sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise
