What is Jesus’ attitude? A good example is
the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13). Jesus did
not pray this for Himself or anyone else. It was
simply an example of His attitude of prayer. He
makes some outright confessions of faith.
“Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be
thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in
earth, as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:9-10). This
is a statement of faith. It shows His winning
attitude. He was standing there in the face of
people that wanted to hang Him! He didn’t say,
“Father, if it be Your will.”
He didn’t just say, “Thy will be done.” He
said, “Your will be done in earth as it is in
heaven!” Is there sickness and poverty and
suffering in heaven? No! Then there shouldn’t
be any of that here on earth. Can you see
His attitude in this? God doesn’t have sickness
in heaven, so He doesn’t want any here on
the earth!
Our attitude needs to be the same as His.
Jesus is the Eternal Winner—He is always a
winner! God can tell you what will happen
6,000 years from now. Why? Because the
events taking place in the next 6,000 years or
the next 6,000,000 years will not happen by
chance. They are established. Where? In the
mind of God. He has faith operating in His
own ability. He is a faith being. He can tell you
what will happen in the future because He
intends for it to come out that way! He can
give you His wisdom because it’s going to be
the way He decides.
How does He do it? With His faith. He
doesn’t expect to fail. He doesn’t prepare to
fail. Satan will get in and try to destroy things,
but God doesn’t worry—He knows it will
come out all right. That’s how we are to be.
Roll all your cares over on Him. Don’t be
moved by what you feel or by what you see.
You’re a faith man, so you know how things
are going to come out. You’re going to win!
Praise God!
