“Many precious people are finding themselves in a cycle of defeat. Negativity comes on them like a constant stream. Am I talking to you tonight? Yeah, life can be very cruel in many ways. Everyone has a story of being the victim of circumstances.
Some people have had it so very rough. Am I talking to you tonight? Well, first of all, you can’t live in the past or you get absolutely nowhere. Maybe you feel like your present life is not going to change because of all the negative things you have experienced so far.
Yes, it’s true that we live in a fallen world of sin and we live in fallen sinful bodies, evil touches us. And the ever worsening effects of what happened long before we arrived on planet earth effects us every day.
What is the answer to the problems that we carry? I can only think of one that is the answer. God. People wrongly think the answer is in money or fame or other things. But, all those things are not the answer for us.
Medical science has the answer for some things. Other things, they have no clue what to do. Yet, people trust in what they say when the doctors only have understanding in some things. People are facing personal challenges of all kinds. Why? Because things are messed up on earth!
People live in error and blindness. Not even realizing that there are demons around in the unseen realm. Working behind the scenes. Using the blindness against people. What really is the answer? The only answer for fallen humanity is Jesus. He is the only hope for us all.
Placing our faith in Jesus, we take our eyes off of the things that are hurting us. We put our faith and trust in the One who knows all what we are dealing with. We give Him control of our life so we can be directed into the future with Him at the lead. Remember, there is nothing impossible to God.
When we are His, we can achieve the impossible. But, it takes faith in Him. It takes trust in Him. Real trust! Laying the total of who we are into the hands of Jesus. He is a God of miracles! He can make iron axe heads float on water. He speaks to storms and they cease and the winds calm.
He is the God of the impossible! The problem that God faces in your life is your lack of faith! Not in the lack of Him being able to change things in your life. Oh, He can change them alright! It’s not about His ability! Never has been! It’s been about you wanting to do it your way! Thus, you are where you are!
Good news! The future is unwritten for you! No matter what you may be dealing with tonight, Jesus is your answer! The method is faith in God! Placing your life in His care and doing things in the future His way. I mean all things!
He knows what is going to work for you personally! He already knows! How will you know? By your faith in Jesus and your relationship with Him! Get to reading and listening to the Bible and anointed teaching of the Word. Fill yourself with God’s will for you. Take His Word personal. Make it yours.
Remember and say this: “God’s Word, the Bible, is God speaking to me!” Yes it is! And, your faith in His Word is faith in Him! What God has said, He does! In fact, since He said it, it is already done! What activates it in your life? Your faith in Him–in His Word! He and His Word are one!
Many people are lacking in focus. Focus on what is really important. Don’t know if this describes you or not, but there are too many things pulling their attention off of what is their answer! That is, what God has said!
How can you have success if you don’t keep your eyes on the goal? How can you hit the baseball if you take your eyes off of the ball? You will end up swinging at the air! Well, I’m telling you, if you will believe God, your circumstances will change.
If you do His Word, you will see tremendous results. Your life will become positive! Your whole outlook will change when you are in faith! With God, you can change things! With God you can! Those things that seem so out of reach can be in your grasp if you believe God!
You can believe God for anything He tells you that you can believe Him for! Anything! And, it is all good! Well, your future is not written yet. God sees all the possible paths your choices will take you. He sees all the destinations of those choices. He knows the ones you should make already. He sees your life like a snapshot–what has been and what is to come. But, even so, He still leaves it up to you what you decide to do.
Does He have the best route for you to take? You bet He does! And He knows how to get the information to you in order for you to do what He directs. I don’t care how bad it was. I don’t care how bad it is. He IS the miracle worker! Faith in God will change your life!
I wonder how many people that are reading this will believe what I just said? How many believe this: Faith in God will change your life! Faith in His Word will change your life! Why are we going around in circles when we can concentrate on the solutions! They are in His Word. And, our faith IN His Word places us into His will for us.
Real faith in God will change your circumstances! Faith in God will heal your body! Faith in God will cause you to prosper. Faith in God will give you wisdom and understanding. There is nothing God cannot do. But, we receive what He has provided through our faith! And, so, where do we get faith in order to receive and act? Directly from His Word, the Bible, and Him speaking directly in our heart! That’s where!
So, this being the case, where is our attention? Is it upon Him and His Word? Listen, if you really do want change, you’ve got to change what you’re focusing on! If you will focus and do the Word of God, you will get His results!
We all have messed up in life. But, do we keep messing up? Do we keep doing the things that get us into the messes? If we are, then we are really stupid! I mean really! How can you or I get different results doing the same dumb things? Well, we can’t!
They say it takes about 30 days to develop a habit. What if we changed our focus on God and His Word for 30 days or so, do you think our lives would change? I know so! And, if you live a life of faith in God and His Word, your life will take on the positive nature of God.
You will take on the wisdom of God. Why? Because of your continual focus upon Him! He will lead you in good paths. Wise paths. Abundant paths. Paths of healing and health and ability! With God you can!
You can see miracles, my friend! You and Jesus can do miracles together! With God, nothing is impossible! Jesus said that if we believe, nothing is impossible to us! Now, that includes your case! No matter how bad is it, with God, anything is possible. Now, how many of you dear readers are going to believe these things and begin to live in faith? I pray every one of you!” KF KenFletcher.org
