My wife did some research and found that we could pay a small fee to get a “lost title” replacement. A short trip into town and a small fee gave us our title. Until that point, we could have argued that we owned the minivan, but we did not have the title as proof.
Recently, the Lord gave me a prophetic word for someone. The enemy had been robbing them for years in small ways. I was given the symbolism of the Borrowers. It is not the will of God that the enemy steal from us. Too many believers have believed the lie of the enemy that God is allowing low-level theft to keep them humble. Jesus came that we might live life to the fullest, and the enemy comes to steal from us.
What do you possess in your life that you do not own the title to? I am not referring to actual titles but the confidence that God has entrusted to your care. It sounds like humility to say thing like, “God can bless me if he wants to, but I will just be happy with I have.” and “Whatever will be, will be”, but it is passivity. Jesus, in the context of being ready for his return said in Mathew 24, “Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing”. We have a responsibility for what God has entrusted with, and we will give an account for what happened to it.
Today, I challenge you make a choice to claim the title for what God has given to you. Do not be OK with letting the enemy steal from you. Fully possess and own what God has made you a steward over. Use it to honor him and to serve others. Each of us will give an account of how we handled God’s resources. There will be no acceptable excuses on that day.
