Speak Existence

(as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations") in the presence of Him whom he believed--God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did Romans 4:17 NKJV

If you knew you had the answer to all your problems, would you use it? If someone you knew was drowning and you had the life jacket (thanks for this one Cedric!), would you throw it to them? These are not trick questions, but questions that we already know the answers to, and the answers would be yes.

If we have faith in God and believe in His Son Jesus, we are heirs of the promise with Abraham. If we are heirs of the promise then we are joint heirs with Christ. If we are joint heirs with Christ then we are sons of God. If we are sons of God then we have the same creative ability as our Father in that what we say, we have. The latter part of today's verse says God calls those things which do not exist as though they did.

It is high time we as the sons of God (here this term has no gender and means mankind) use our creative ability to speak into existence the will of God for our lives. If you're not where you know you should be in life...speak it into existence. If your prayer life can use a revival...speak it into existence. If your child or loved one has lost their way...speak ordered steps by the Lord into their existence. We are where we are because we won't open our mouths. Life and death lie in the power of the tongue. What's on your tongue?

Let's begin to speak those things that be not as though they were and change the very dynamics of every life we touch.

Your thoughts!
