Acts 1:15-16, 20-26 GNBDK
[15] A few days later there was a meeting of the believers, about 120 in all, and Peter stood up to speak.
[16] “My fellow-believers,” he said, “the scripture had to come true in which the Holy Spirit, speaking through David, made a prediction about Judas, who was the guide for those who arrested Jesus.
[20] “For it is written in the book of Psalms: ‘May his house become empty; may no one live in it.’ It is also written: ‘May someone else take his place of service.’
[21-22] “So then, someone must join us as a witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. He must be one of the men who were in our group during the whole time that the Lord Jesus travelled about with us, beginning from the time John preached his message of baptism until the day Jesus was taken up from us to heaven.”
[23] So they proposed two men: Joseph, who was called Barsabbas (also known as Justus), and Matthias.
[24] Then they prayed, “Lord, you know the thoughts of everyone, so show us which of these two you have chosen
[25] to serve as an apostle in the place of Judas, who left to go to the place where he belongs.”
[26] Then they drew lots to choose between the two men, and the one chosen was Matthias, who was added to the group of eleven apostles.
Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 113:1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8
R. (8) The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.
Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD. Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forever.
R. The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.
From the rising to the setting of the sun is the name of the LORD to be praised. High above all nations is the LORD; above the heavens is his glory.
R. The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.
Who is like the LORD, our God, who is enthroned on high and looks upon the heavens and the earth below?
R. The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.
He raises up the lowly from the dust; from the dunghill he lifts up the poor. To seat them with princes, with the princes of his own people.
R. The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.
Gospel, John 15:9-17
John 15:9-17 GNBDK
[9] I love you just as the Father loves me; remain in my love.
[10] If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love.
[11] “I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
[12] My commandment is this: love one another, just as I love you.
[13] The greatest love a person can have for his friends is to give his life for them.
[14] And you are my friends if you do what I command you.
[15] I do not call you servants any longer, because servants do not know what their master is doing. Instead, I call you friends, because I have told you everything I have heard from my Father.
[16] 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.
[17] This, then, is what I command you: love one another.
Dearest Father,
Thank You that You give me whatever I ask in Jesus’ Name! As written in the Gospel today.
John 15:16 GNBDK
[16] 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.
We talked about the Law of Assumption, right?
The Law of Assumption states that the moment we desire something, it is assumed that we already have it. That it is already in the Spirit realm, in our consciousness, and we can manifest it in our reality when we live in the feeling of the end, of the wish fulfilled.
So in practice, when Neville Goddard desired to go to Barbados but didn't have any money, his mentor, Abdullah, told him, he is already in Barbados. So every night, he went to sleep imagining himself to be lying in his own bed in Barbados, even when he was still in New York.
After 2 months of doing this, his brother decided to gather his siblings in a reunion in Barbados and sent him money to buy a boat ticket home.
But there wasn't any 1st class accommodation left, only 3rd class. So he bought it. When he told his friend Abdullah, he replied, Who said you are going to Barbados? You have gone to Barbados and you went first class. So he accepted this truth.
When the time for his departure arrived, he was told that there was a cancellation in the first class and they gave it to him.
That's how it is to live in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, of living in the end.
There's no questioning when or how. We've already assumed we have what we desire and we live in the feeling of the wish fulfilled. So how can we still ask when or how?
It's simply because when we desire something, that desire was desired by God himself for us, the Great “I Am’ desiring in us.
Philippians 2:13 NLT
For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
And so because He is the Source of all things, when He desires our desires in us, it's already done. We only have to believe it as done and we have received it and live in the feeling and knowing that our desire is fulfilled.
Let me share with you my dreams and desires.
I desired to inspire and encourage 1 billion GREAT (Generous, Raving, Engaged, Apostolic, and Tribal) SpeakChrist Angels, members of my paid SpeakChrist RichLife Club membership community to daily live the rich life in Christ so we can all be God’s sources and symbols of blessing.
At £1/month, this will give me £1 billion per month in recurring residual passive profits.
I will then invest it in God-inspired ideas that bless billions and produce trillions in profits, at least £100 billion per month, with me and my family living well off with 1% and generating 99% tithe and offerings to fund God's assignments in the world blessing billions of people in my generation and for generations to come.
This is my dream. The dream I know full well in faith that God birthed in me. Cause by myself, I could never conceive of such colossal, audacious dreams.
So putting the Law of Assumption into practice, how do I live in the end and in the feeling of my dream fulfilled?
I imagine myself receiving large sums of money in my bank account passively and regularly and then building a resort with a natural pool on an empty block of land near our home which I have been claiming in faith. So people in my city can have a place to relax in nature and swim in a natural pool with no chemicals and which I and my family can enjoy too.
Cause I know I couldn't do it without soooo much funds.
I recently named it, Garden of Eden, to make it real for me.
Here’s my vision board for it as I wrote in my John 15:7 Answers:
May 9, 2025
Friday 6 pm
Thank You, Father, for my Garden of Eden Recreation swim pond on one side, fish pond on the other, 25 meters long so I can swim laps,
By the side of my house, so we can easily jump from my house porch.
With a waterfall and slides on the side where people can jump and slide safely.
A commercial and condotel on the other side so people can stay overnight and have the groceries and other things they need to cook for themselves.
Or cottages for day and overnight stays.
Big dreams, I know.
But today, Jesus is essentially giving me a blank cheque for me to ask my desires from the Father in Jesus’ Name!
John 15:16 GNBDK
[16] 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.
The Lord has appointed us to go and bear much fruit for the glory of God. And so we can ask the Father for whatever, no matter how seemingly impossible, in Jesus’ Name, and He will give it to us.
So dream big. Then believe you have received and live in the end, living in the feeling of the wish fulfilled.
For the Father will give you whatever you ask, in Jesus’ Name!
If you want to have the assurance of your desires fulfilled, live in Christ. Then you can ask God, in Jesus’ Name, for whatever you desire, desires He gave birth in you, and He will give it. Join me in our SpeakChrist RichLife Club. We'll do it together. St. Katharine Drexel, pray for us.
