Attitude of Redemption for 2022 – A Word by Dr. Candice Smithyman
Email: info@candicesmithyman.
During this month of first fruits the Lord spoke to me and said, “Tell My people to have an attitude of redemption.” Having an attitude of redemption means that you accept you are fully redeemed and everything around you is redeemed. Everything in the earth today has been fully redeemed by the death, burial, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ. He has covered all things in the eternal realms. You may be experiencing difficulties, obstacles, blockages, offenses or sicknesses, but I’m here to tell you that no matter what you see with your natural eyes, you are still called to have an attitude of redemption!
Our viewpoint is supposed to be different than the world’s as a Kingdom citizen. We are to see things as if they are complete with the fullness of Christ in every moment. When we see something that is broken or lacking in the natural, we are to choose to see the fullness of Christ in that situation. This is living by faith and not by sight!
The earth realms are fact but they aren’t truth. There is a difference between fact and truth. The fact is : I see this disorder, the misalignment, the lies, the sin, the sickness, the lack and poverty in the world. But the truth of the matter comes only from what Jesus Christ says about the situation.
You are fully redeemed in the Lord. That means the brokenness you may be experiencing has been fully redeemed, and as you continue to walk Christ’s way, you will open up a portal that will release the blessings of heaven into the earth.
It’s critical that we as Christ’s body learn to walk as mature Kingdom citizens. When we are mature, we are able to walk in the fullness of God, His completeness, His shalom peace, with nothing missing and nothing broken. I want to see you step into that place where there is nothing missing and there is nothing broken. I know it looks like brokenness everyday, but the “look” is fact and not the truth.
Galatians 3:13-14 (KJV) reads, “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
We died, buried, resurrected, and ascended with Christ. The blessings of heaven are ours and our lives should reflect that. Our souls are being transformed daily into this truth. Let us make it a mandate in our lives to know that we have His Spirit by faith to lead us down the path of redemption.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV) says, “Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)”
This means daily we are to have a walk of redemption. This will wash clean everything in our lives and set us on a path of exercising maturity in all situations we are faced with. I know God has great plans for you in 2022. It is time to walk in an attitude of redemption and far surpass your current situations with this faith attitude, as the redeemed of the Lord, they say so.
Psalm 107:1-2 (KJV) reads, “O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy.”
God is redeeming you even now from the clutches of the enemy. Give God the glory by believing Him now as you maintain an attitude of redemption in the midst of the chaos and pain you are experiencing. He has redeemed your situation already and you will see the manifestation in the natural. Some people have asked me, “How do you release heaven to earth? How do you operate in the ascension mindset? How do you live in the prosperity realms and not in the poverty realms? How do you work in miracles, signs and wonders? How do you release the glory?” Maybe you have these same questions. I’ll tell you how I do it: I obey the Word of the Lord, regardless of what I see. You can only be a glory carrier and release the glory when you properly position yourself and see from God’s perspective. I walk in the way of redemption. I rest in the fact, He did it already, so my job now by faith is just watch Him manifest it in the earth.
Let me pray for you to grab these truths. Lord, help us to exercise our faith daily and walk in a greater understanding of how you have redeemed all things. We are called to be world changers and history makers, and you have given us all the tools necessary for this blessing. Help us to be the example to others of a life of redemption. You showed us the way when you walked the earth, let us show others the way. Give me revelation in this season of how to walk in the way of redemption so I can carry your glory to my home, neighborhood, city, state, nation and the nations. Amen.
