Today I was thinking about “following” in my daddy’s footsteps. Doing what He would do and thinking the thoughts He would think. Some once said, “God doesn’t have to work very hard – He just creates a lot of things with His words”. I don’t know if all that is true, but I do know that if we can learn to follow His speech… The King’s speech… and we would be amazed at how our lives would change.
To learn to:
- Speak AS He speaks (relationship)
- Speak When He speaks (timing)
- Speak What He speaks (doctrine)
- Speak Where He speaks (obedience)
I have been thinking a lot lately about healing. About the provision made on it’s behalf… the events surrounding it’s timing… the hanging on in the midst of the battle for it… the motivation behind it’s appearing. When we learn “God speech” – we can better understand and can “obtain”.
In the battle for healing that I’ve been fighting lately, I start asking myself questions… what is HE saying about it, what is His timing for it, how does HE call it forth. The only thing I don’t know is the timing.
So… when I am engaged in the battle for my own healing…. I am looking at the strategy for the battle.
- Yes – the truth is – God heals
- Yes – the truth is – God loves me
- Yes – the truth is – God and I have a relationship
- Yes – the truth is – I can hear His voice
- Yes – the truth is – I know His word
- Yes – I can be patient until the fruit is ripe
When you are battling – the enemy will come against you – and try to alter God’s word and bring a lie. I challenge you to put up your list of truths against the lie of the enemy – and see how that lie will fall in the midst of your list. Just as Satan talks you into the lie… truth will talk you back out of it.
Putting my agreement to His word and putting my agreement to what I hear is a big plus in the battle. Though I wake up feeling weak… I put my agreement to the word that tells me in 2 Corinthians 12:10 that I am strong. When I feel as if I can’t do something… I put my agreement to Phil 4:13 – I can do ALL things. When we put our agreement to something – it’s not necessarily that we “feel” it – but when we speak it – we put our agreement to it.
When you speak – you are assigning an agreement. You either agree with how you feel or the truth which is God’s word – and those two things can be quite different. You agree with your anger or your forgiveness. I thought of all the years I have put my agreement with my natural man, with my human emotion, with my carnal feelings… instead of with my Father. He never comes into agreement with the carnal… so why should we?
I mean… Here is the one who established a system of creation with words. Read that sentence again… CREATED A SYSTEM TO CREATE WITH WORDS. It would be wisdom to align with Him… put your agreement with that… and forsake everything else.
Listen to what He is speaking right now into your life… into your circumstance – step out onto your troubled water with faith and put your agreement to it!!!
Mat 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. (you actually could interpret that second one in agreement with you here on earth as the Holy Ghost!!!)
