SEE BY THE  WORD AND SPEAK ACCORDINGLY

Pastor Chris 

While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal (2 Corinthians 4:18).

We’re not supposed to be victims in the earth, but victors. But many Christians live as victims, as captives of adverse circumstances, because they neither see nor live by the Word. The adversities, pressures and difficulties of life aren’t a factor. Paul, in  the  preceding  verse  to  our  opening  scripture,  calls them “light affliction, which is but for a moment….”

In other words, to you, that problem or adverse circumstance may have been for ten years, but it’s subject to change, and guaranteed to work for you a far  more  exceeding  and  eternal  weight  of  glory.  How? The answer is what we read in our opening verse! Stop looking at your present physical condition; see the invisible.

When  you  see  the  invisible,  the  wilderness experience will end. See God doing great things in your life and through your life this year. See yourself prosperous, healthy, vibrant and strong. See yourself walking  in victory and  in the  glory of God. See  the picture, accept it, and speak accordingly.  Consider the story of Abraham in Genesis 17. He took his gaze off what his physical senses dictated to him and looked at the invisible through the  eyes of  the spirit. He saw himself as the father of many, just as God had said.

The  Apostle  Paul, in  Romans  4:17,  explains  to us that Abraham believed what God had said concerning him:  “(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God,  who  quickeneth  the  dead,  and  calleth  those things which be not as though they were.”

This is the beginning of a new year; something you must do consciously and consistently every day is to boldly declare who you really are. Don’t speak failure; don’t speak defeat. Have the right vision. See from God’s  perspective.  Meditate  on and  declare  His Word.

When you affirm what God has said about you, your soul will be adjusted to act that way. Whatever God  has  said  about  you, endorse  it,  believe  it,  and affirm it to yourself consistently (Hebrews 13:5-6). Consciously programme your life with the Word of God. 

CONFESSION 

I  see  myself  making  progress  with  giant  strides; my path is that of the just that shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. My focus is on the Lord and His Word; His Wisdom guides and rules my life. I see and walk in victory, health, prosperity and joy, now and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of [our] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

2 Corinthians 4:13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
