Faith is believing for something that you can’t see. Learn to see things from the perspective of Heaven not earth because we are citizens of Heaven, living on earth. Christ lives inside of believers and with him all things are possible. There is no negativity or frustration in Heaven. With faith you can see with the eyes of Jesus.
The size of the problem is the size of the promise and provision. Your circumstances give you an opportunity to think like Jesus. We are called to become more like him. He conquered all darkness and sits with you, high above all the powers of darkness. (Ephesians 2:6) Every challenge and obstacle are merely there to elevate and upgrade you. The problem is not our circumstances but how we think and look at the situation. Don’t ask the question, why me? This is a victim question.
If you don’t think like Jesus, you will think with fear, doubt and unbelief. Instead, ask Jesus what he wants for you. Know he never leaves you and is good. He wants you to depend on him, not your circumstances. He grants you favor, goodness, power, and turns everything for your good. Believe it!
Daddy God, you are in charge and you reign. There are somethings in front of me that I haven’t broken through. Let me see with your eyes and have a higher walk with Holy Spirit, with an elevation upgrade, in my thinking. Captivate my heart with your love, so I can live triumphant in you. All the glory is yours!
Amen
Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion to God has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness. (2 Peter 1:3 TPT)

“faith believe” instead of disbelief or unbelief or make-belief! Disney is a magic kingdom; the kingdom of God and his righteousness is the powerful, real Kingdom! and the Kingdom of the Son comes alive in us through redemption and being born again of God of Spirit!

Amen, thinking like Jesus is possible because of what happened at Pentecost. Holy Spirit has been poured out to give us access to all of what Jesus spoke and taught. Listening to Him today…

“….Faith is the EVIDENCE” (Heb.11:1) Our faith is fake if it lacks proof. Whatever God says is final irrespective of what is going on around us.

“because we are citizens of Heaven, living on earth.” Right! I think many of us forget this. We have forgotten our true identity in Christ sadly and adapted the false one of this world that is not of God. Lord help us all! God bless you for this strong and encouraging message. Blessings and grace to you! ❤

Tammy, God has really been stressing to me that knowing our true identity in Christ is so important for today. It is easy to agree with God, when we know who we are. Nothing is impossible with God and when we do what he says.
Thank you, I receive the blessings! Abundant grace, mercy, and love and life to you! \0/

Dear Hazel: This was a beautiful post for the day, the hour, the moment that many of us are facing. To see things from God’s viewpoint is something we often overlook and get tunnel visioned when the challenges seem to overwhelm. We need these reminders. Thank you so much and May God bless us all to see Jesus High and Lifted Up, above all powers and principalities.

Dear Sophia, you are most welcome! It is easy to concentrate on the problem rather than on the Problem Solver. He never lets us down and he has conquered all the powers of darkness. It is up to us to walk in our authority and not let the enemy of our souls steal our peace. Blessings of walking in Jesus and his victory!

Talking about faith, blind faith is bad. Imposing others on the issue of faith is as bad as well.
Faith is something personal and requires understanding and some sprinkle of trust as well.
And there is nothing wrong for someone to admit that they do not know everything to have faith but they should have faith in something based on certain but reasonable assumptions.
