"God, who gives life to the dead and
calls those things which do not exist
as though they did".
(Romans 4:17 )
Call Forth What You Want To See!
How does God respond to our
problems? For example, how did He
respond to the problem of darkness?
The Bible tells us that when God
saw darkness on the face of the
deep, He said, “Let there be light,”
and there was light (Genesis 1:3).
God saw the light and it was good.
He saw good after He spoke! He
didn’t speak about the darkness He
saw. Instead, He spoke forth what He
wanted to see.
My friend, you are made in God’s
image. And God wants you to deal
with the problems in your life by
speaking forth what you want to see.
Unfortunately, many of us tend to
speak about our problems instead.
We keep talking about how bad the
situation is and then we wonder why
the whole situation just seems to
get worse!
Now, I am not telling you to deny
that your problem exists. The
darkness was there and God saw it,
but He did not speak about what He
saw. Rather, God chose to speak
forth what He wanted to see. In fact,
He called forth everything of creation
—the sun, moon, stars, land animals,
sea creatures and vegetation. By
simply speaking, He brought all
these incredible things into
existence.
Beloved, if you want to see good,
then speak the good that you want
to see. Don’t say, “This headache is
really killing me.” Say, “I am healthy
and strong for by Jesus’ stripes I
have been healed!” And don’t say,
“My boss hates me. He’s always
picking on me.” Instead say,
“Because I have favor with God, I
have favor with my boss!” Call forth
the good that you want to see and
you will see it!
