You Are Always All-Sufficient
The Illusion About God’s Insufficiency
The Illusion About God’s Insufficiency
All
illusions come from people who create a God in the image and likeness of man.
These people cannot imagine a God who is greater than themselves. Based on
their experiences, they conclude that there are needs to be met in order to
obtain certain results. And their God must be the same way.
Although
they have no problem proclaiming God is all sufficient and all-powerful, they
still think that God would depend on some things to be sufficient, perfect, and
content. They are saying the ‘Perfection’ itself is not perfect. So they
created this God who ‘depends’ and ‘needs.’ Therefore, they created the
illusion of God’s insufficiency: God has unfulfilled needs. God is not all
sufficient.
The Truth
about God’s All Sufficiency
However,
if God needs some things to produce His desired results, where does He get it?
Isn’t He the Alpha through the Omega? Is there anything existing outside of
God? Isn’t He the ultimate Creator of all things? Isn’t He all and in all? Is
there anything that’s not of God?
Keep in
mind God’s perspective of time: All has happened from the beginning to the end,
at the same time. All the time is present from His perspective, as His name
proclaims, “I AM.” He has seen the beginning to the end of time.
So the
Universe doesn’t ‘need’ certain results. Other than what’s happening; the
Universe doesn’t ‘need’ anything else to happen. The Universe is the result.
“It is finished.” Every moment of the Universe is at its perfection, just like
every season, and every time and purpose under Heaven.
Therefore,
need does not exist in God. Other than what’s happening, God doesn’t need
anything else to happen.
This will
help you better understand it. The terms of God should always be
interchangeable: Life, Love, Peace, Truth, Joy, and Liberty.
Need does
not exist in ‘Life’. Other than what’s happening, ‘Life’ doesn’t need anything
else to happen.
Need does
not exist in ‘Love’. Other than what’s happening, ‘Love’ doesn’t need anything
else to happen.
Need does
not exist in ‘Peace’. Other than what’s happening, ‘Peace’ doesn’t need
anything else to happen.
Need does
not exist in ‘Truth’. Other than what’s happening, ‘Truth’ doesn’t need
anything else to happen.
Need does
not exist in ‘Joy’. Other than what’s happening, ‘Joy’ doesn’t need anything
else to happen.
Need does
not exist in ‘Liberty’. Other than what’s happening, ‘Liberty’ doesn’t need
anything else to happen.
So here
is the Truth about God’s All Sufficiency: God doesn’t need anything. He is the
All-Sufficient One!
The Illusion About Your Insufficiency
You may
think that you need some things or some circumstances to obtain certain
results, such as being ‘happy,’ ‘content,’ ‘peaceful,’ or ‘alive,” etc.
Therefore you see your life from the perspective of having needs.
You try
to avoid bad circumstances or pain. You think happiness (or any other good
state of being) comes with conditions. You live your life chasing after the
so-called sources of happiness. You feel you have to fight to obtain from insufficient
resources. And, you feel you have to struggle to sustain Life.
Basically,
you have the illusion of insufficiency. As this illusion becomes real, fear
creeps in. It becomes the issue of your heart and soon manifests into your
reality. You will re-experience the circumstances of needing, over and over
again. You will be trapped this illusion and never walk in Liberty.
Consequently,
this illusion leads not just to competition between humankind, but also
cruelty, oppression, prosecutions, and great depression. Because when having
enough to share, you would not need to destroy others to be sufficient. You
would not fight to get resources. Because when all are sufficient, all issues
are solved.
The Truth About Your All Sufficiency
So, replace
God with the Life here. Keep in mind that the same principle applies to you.
You are granted life by Life.
If Life
needs some things to produce its desire results, where does it get it? Isn’t
Life the Alpha through the Omega? Is there anything existing outside of Life?
Isn’t Life the ultimate Creator of all things? Isn’t Life all and in all? Is
there anything that’s not of Life?
So your
Life doesn’t need certain results. Other than what’s happening, your Life
doesn’t ‘need’ anything else to happen. Your Life is the result. “It is
finished.” Every moment of your life is at its perfection, just like every
season, and every time and purpose under Heaven.
So
whenever you feel like you ‘must have’ something. Ask yourself, why do you have
to have it? Then, you will realize you never really need anything. All these
needs are illusions you create. You don’t even need air - you will realize that
at death, as your spirit lives on.
The truth
is you can’t not live. You are created by Life, and Life can only produce Life.
As the image and likeness of God, your ‘Life’ is guaranteed. God has given all
of us ‘Eternal Life’ and never to take it away. If you will always live, what
do you ‘need’ to live?
You have
Eternity to have all that you thought you lost, to experience all that you
thought you missed. You can never lose anything, as Life will continuously give
you great opportunities to grow and expand, forever. Life itself is all
sufficient on its own. You do not need anything to exist.
The Truth
is all that you think you need, you already have within you because you are
created in the image and the likeness of El Shaddai (The All-Sufficient One).
The Purpose For The Illusion Of Insufficiency
The
Purpose of the Illusion of Insufficiency is to experience the All-Sufficient
One within you. So at first, you must be placed in the illusion of
insufficiency. Then from there, you could bring forth all that you needed, to
truly experience what’s like to be all sufficient.
In the Garden
of Eden, they had it all. But they didn’t know it. They experienced Eternal
Life, but it didn’t mean anything. They had never experienced otherwise. They
couldn’t have any deeper understanding of it. The Garden of Eden is to express
a great Truth: That when you have it all, and don’t realize it, you have
nothing.
Insufficiency
was originally meant to be a blessing. Through it, you get to experience the
all-sufficiency. However, you still need to step out of this illusion – regard
it as an illusion, and depart from it. Then, you can truly profit from such
blessed experience.
The Ways To Step Out And Profit From The Illusion Of Insufficiency
Here is
another way to help you to see through the illusion of insufficiency. Is there
anything you feel like you must have? Well, you don’t have it now, and you are
still alive. So what makes you think you must have it? This is the key question
to break all fear. This is the key to the Kingdom of God.
You may
still fear when facing the loss of your body, your family, and your
surroundings. To overcome such fear is to detach from those attachments or
needs. Most people wait until death to realize this. However, you can do this
while alive. Then, you can dominate your circumstances while others are dominated
by their circumstances.
Here is
the way to step out of this illusion: Whenever you see any lack in others, go
fill it. For it is where the illusion exists: outside of you.
If they
lack food, feed them. If they lack clothing, clothe them. If they lack shelter,
shelter them. Through doing these things, you will find that you can never run
out.
No matter
how little you have, you can always find someone who has less. Find someone and
bless them from the midst of your abundance.
Don’t
seek to be the receiver of things. Be the source of things. Whatever you desire
to have, help others to have. Whatever you want to experience, help others to
experience. When you do this, you’ll remember, that you have always had those
things.
This is
why we “Treat others the way we want to be treated.”
So don’t
ask around, what do we have to eat? What do we have to drink? Look at the birds
in the air. They neither sow, or reap, or gather into barns. Yet, they have
enough to eat. Which of you here who are constantly in wanting can add anything
to your life?
Also,
don’t ask what do we have to wear?
Think of the lilies in the field, how they grow. They don’t labor or
spin. But I tell you, even the finest clothing of Solomon cannot compare to
these lilies.
So, seek
first His Kingdom and His Righteousness, and all these things are added unto
you.
However,
how are you to seek the Kingdom? It’s by giving others the Kingdom. It’s by
becoming the Kingdom yourself, where others can find its shelter and its
strength. It’s by handing out the Kingdom and its blessing. Because whatever
you give, you become.
Remember
this always: Whatever you give, you become.
