Philippians 3:12
I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me.

Gbenga insisted that there was no more perfection he was striving towards because he was already complete in Christ. That Christ has finished everything and there was nothing left for him to do. He said this because he was wrongly taught. This was the reason he could not walk in spiritual authority and was still a slave to sins.

He did not realize that even though a good seed is perfect and complete because it has everything it takes to become a big fruitful tree, it will need to grow and continue to grow for it to actually become that.

Indeed, the most important thing about any plant is its seed. Everything the plant will become has been encoded in its seed. There is no need laboring to have a good plant if the seed is bad.

We as believers in Christ are born of the incorruptible seed (1 Pet 1:23). This seed is perfect, and everything about our perfection has already been completed in this seed. But we have to let this seed grow and bring forth fruit. We have to work out our salvation with fear and trembling (Phil 2:12). We have to press on to possess the perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed us (Phil 3:12).

The devil will do everything he can to hinder you from possessing this perfection. But remember that God will do everything to help you succeed.

Go into today remembering that the Spirit that lives within you is infinitely greater than the devil, and through Him, you will always overcome (see 1 John 4:4).
