Call those things that are not, as though they were...

 Romans 4:17

as it is written, “I have made you the father of many nations”—in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist.

Our Father is excellent! His word is life, it is powerful, it has resulted to everything we see today. The same way God changed Abraham's name from Abram to Abraham, which means the Father of many nations and at that time, Abraham was already old and he didn't even have any children. God wanted him to be reminded every time they call his name, of what the Lord had promised him. Indeed, God blessed him with the son He promised and he was named Isaac. This proved the prophecy, where at the time when it was spoken, it didn't exist, but because God said it, the matter was settled and everything else had to line-up to manifest the promise God had made.

In the same manner, God wants us to call those things that are not in existence, as though they were. Meaning, what God had promised you, believe it and start acting and speaking as though it had already happen. If you are sick, start thanking God for the healing, see yourself healed, strong and full of energy. In the physical it might say one thing, but believe the unseen. Everything else will line-up until what you believe God for manifest in your life. Do not contradict what God says, where God says you have the inheritance through Christ Jesus and yet you keep calling yourself poor. No, come in agreement with God and acknowledge that you are not a borrow but a lender! This is confirmed in the book of Deuteronomy 15:6 that says "For the Lord your God will bless you as He has promised you, and you will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow; and you will rule over many nations, but they will not rule over you." Declare it until you start believing it, and seeing it manifest in your mind, the rest will follow...

Write down some affirmations for yourself, things that God has told you and try saying them every morning, declaring them and calling them forth. This will change your mindset, and make you realize who you truly are, a child of God who has everything through Christ. In God's timing, those things will manifest. Believe!

Our King is alive, He sees and hears you...

 1 Peter 3:18 Christ suffered for our sins once for all time. He never sinned, but He died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but He was raised to life in the Spirit. The recollection about Jesus, is one of the most powerful  story ever. His life story has impacted humanity so much, we just find ourselves in awe and feeling privileged . Jesus died for us, sinners, in order to bring us safely home, to our Father, how amazing is that! He was born to die for us, in order for us not to perish , but to live an eternal life, in communion with our Father (John 3:16). What is wonderful also, is that in as much they crucified Him and He died, He subsequently rose after three days. This means, our King is alive! We serve a King that is alive and infact through  the Holy Spirit, He lives in us! This gives  us boldness that we are not going through life on our own, but we have the Most High living in us and being there with us even in turbulent  times, just li

By knowing Christ, we get a chance of living a life that is pleasing to the Lord.

 2 Peter 1:3 By His divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a Godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know Him, the one who called us to Himself by means of His marvelous glory and excellence. By coming to know Christ, learning about Him in the word, we now have the ability to live a Godly life. This means by God's divine power, He has equipped us with the relevant information and teachings, on how we are to live our lives. The bible tells us that Jesus was sent to be our role model, our example of the things the Lord expects to see in us and to see in our daily walk here on earth. These things allow us to live a life that is acceptable in His eyes. However, God understands that we are not perfect (and we should never pressurize ourselves to be perfect), but with the guidance we have, we know that where we fall short, we can run to the Lord without guilt or shame, knowing that He is our Father who loves us and is willing to help us every step of t

Let us tell of the wonderful things He has done!

 Psalm 9:1 I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things You have done. And that is called a testimony, telling of the wonderful  things that the Lord has done! With God on our side, we have  an advantage, where we are protected from certain things, where God ochestrates things for us so that they work in our favour (Romans 8:28). He heals us, He provides for us, He opens and closes doors and so much more. Which is why the only two things that we can do to show gratitude for all that He does for us, is first to recognize His role in the whole thing . That in our own strength, we wouldn't have been able to achieve those thigs, gotten favoured or have that opportunity come through. Basically,  giving credit where it is due, and by so doing, we give Him the glory and honour that He deserves. The second thing   that   we  ought to do, is to testify of His goodness in our lives. Us sharing of what we have seen in our lives God doing, can give someon
