« Those who are [spiritually] wise will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead many to righteousness, [will shine] like the stars forever and ever »
NKJV You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.
Amplified You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed and placed and purposefully planted you, so that you would go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit will remain and be lasting, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name [as My representative] He may give to you.
CEV You did not choose me. I chose you and sent you out to produce fruit, the kind of fruit that will last. Then my Father will give you whatever you ask for in my name.
« If you ask anything in My name, I will do it »
John 14:14NKJV
In other words, Jesus was saying in the verse above that, “I will give you a blank cheque”.
Today, we will discuss how to obtain this divine blank cheque.
God gives blank cheques to people whose hearts pant after His kingdom on earth.
« You did not choose me; I chose you and appointed you to go and bear much fruit, the kind of fruit that endures. And so the Father will give you whatever you ask of him in my name »
He said in the passage above that when you win souls and follow them up until they are strong in the Lord,
then you can ask God for whatever you want in His name, and He will do it for you.
When you seek God’s kingdom first above all else, then He will give you everything that you could ever need, Matthew 6:33.
I have always said that God is a playwright, having written the script of everything that is happening on earth.
In 1 Kings 3:5-14, when God gave Solomon a blank cheque, He already knew the end from the beginning.
He knew that the boy would ask for wisdom to rule God’s people, so when he did, the Lord added riches, peace and everything else a man could ever want.
- When God sees that you have a heart that is interested in the salvation of the souls and in the establishment of His kingdom on earth, you will get from Him all those things other people are struggling for.
Seek God’s kingdom diligently; seek to ensure that His will is done on earth as it is in heaven.
You will see how He will embarrass you with so many blessings that you would be the one saying, “Lord, it is enough”.
Give to the work of God, go out on evangelism regularly, follow up new converts to ensure they abide in the flock of Christ.
Let God see your dedication to His work and He will surely reward you with a blank cheque.
Application – When was the last time you won a soul for God ?
