JUST AGREE WITH GOD!
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)
Twenty years before Abraham ever had a child, God said to him, “Abraham, I have made you a father of many nations.” Note that God spoke to him like it had already happened, in the past tense. Abraham probably thought God must be making a mistake. How can someone without even one child become father of nations?
When God says you are 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 your pay slip. Just agree with Him and say, “I am prosperous.” Things may look impossible. That is all right. That is 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 God’s promises because He is faithful and He will complete what He’s started in your life!
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I bless You and thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. I receive Your promises as truth, no matter what is going on around me. Fill me with joy and peace as I hold fast to Your promises for me. In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen.
