Pastor Matt had an awesome sermon on faith Sunday. I was struck in the heart that I did not have enough faith for my granddaughter, Teresa. I had not spoken enough postive things into her life. So Nancy prayed with me and we had a breakthrough. Teresa called her father to come home. That increased my faith, for real.
We really need to recognize that what we speak comes into existence. God honors our prayers if we pray them in His will. Sometimes we forget that.

You are so right, Sandy! We forget so often just how powerful our words are, and that we can, and do, speak things into existence all the time.
ReplyDeleteGod is the creator of everything, and He is creative in His very nature. He spoke everything into existence with just His words. Genesis also tells us that He created us in His image. Well, that means that our spirit is patterned after His spirit. He also tells us in Matthew 16 that whatever we bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever we loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
Therefore, whatever we speak, in accordance with His will, and in the authority of Jesus name, will come to pass. But, as you said, it requires faith on our part to believe that what God's Word says is the whole truth and that He is faithful to His Word.
Thanks so much for this encouraging story!
