ACCEPT WHAT GOD SAYS BY FAITH
Categories: Daily Devotional
âFor we walk by faith, not by sightâ. 2 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV)
According to 2 Corinthians 3:18 (KJV), âBut we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.â In other words, if you go to the mirror you will see what is not properly arranged and then you will be able to rearrange it. So is the case with the word of God. It says when you look into the word of God, what you will see is your true image. For instance, when you see the scripture that says the barren shall keep house and shall be the mother of children, begin to tell yourself that you are not barren, because that is your real self. It would be wrong to move away from that and to continue saying you are barren. The scripture says, âBehold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt youâ (Luke 10:19, KJV).
You have to accept what you are first before you can become it. The world will say, âShow me first before I believe that you made it.â But God is saying that you have it backwards. It does not work like that in the Kingdom. Accept first that you are healed and you will get well. If you are waiting first for your body to adjust before you accept your healing, then you will never get well. You have to accept first and then act like the word spoken over your life concerning healing. The world says that seeing is believing; but God says that believing is seeing.
You have to believe the word, receive it, and thank the Lord for it, because it is for you. When the word says that you are strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, claim it and thank the Father.
Our part in every promise in the scripture is to say amen. The scriptures say that every promise in Him should be met with a yea and an amen. âAmenâ is not a signature to prayer; it is an affirmation of faith. Accept what God has spoken concerning you and it will manifest in Jesus name.
