Today’s Scripture | |
“As
it is written: ‘I have made you a father of many nations.’ He is our
father in the sight of God, in whom he believed—the God who gives life
to the dead and calls into being things that were not.” (Romans 4:17, NIV) | |
Just Agree with God! | |
Twenty
years before Abraham ever had a child, God said to him, “Abraham, I
have made you a father of many nations.” Notice God spoke to him like it
had already happened, in the past tense. I’m sure Abraham thought,
“God, You must have made a mistake. I’m not a father. I don’t even have
one child.” Abraham could have talked himself out of it; but instead, he
chose to believe.
Today,
you may be thinking, “I’m not blessed. I’m not confident. I’m not
healthy. I’m not favored.” But when God says you’re blessed, don’t try
to figure it out. Just agree with God and say, “I am blessed.” When God
calls you prosperous, don’t go check your bank account. Don’t go look at
the stock report. Just agree with God and say, “I am prosperous.”
Things may look impossible. That’s all right. That’s the way things
looked for Abraham. But sure enough, God’s promises came to pass, and he
became the father of many nations.
Remember,
when you agree with God, you are positioning yourself for a miracle.
You are activating His truth in your life. When things look difficult,
don’t agree with your circumstances, agree with His promises because He
is faithful, and He will complete what He’s started in your life!
