SCRIPTURE: And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:
For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. Genesis 13:14-15.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The picture in your mind determines the reality of your life.
It has been established that vision is key to destiny fulfilment; vision is key to motion. Vision is crucial to attaining higher heights in life.
From our anchor Scripture, we understand that God told Abraham to lift his eyes and see.
One thing we can see from that Scripture is that the picture in your heart determines your future in the earth.
People who have no picture in their heart have no future on earth.
Beloved, I would like to ask you the question: what picture do you have in your heart about your spiritual life? What picture do you see about your health and finances? What is the picture you see about your future?
Do you see God supplying all your needs according to His riches in glory? Or do you see yourself as a poor and struggling person? What can you see?
The picture in your heart determines your future on the earth. The picture in your heart determines your reality on earth.
Many years ago, the mother of Joel Osteen, was diagnosed with cancer of the liver, and the doctor gave her six weeks to live. But she decided that she was not going to die. So, she collected some Scriptures on Divine health and longevity, and started quoting them.
The cancer left her terribly emaciated, but she took her wedding picture where she was looking very young and beautiful, and placed it on the wall of her mirror in her wardrobe. Every time, she looked at herself in the mirror and saw the person afflicted with cancer, she would say, “This is not me.” She would point to the picture and say, “This picture, that is me. I am healthy. I am plump, and I don’t have cancer.”
And as she kept on saying these words and looking at the correct picture about herself, the cancer died, and she survived.
You see, the picture in your mind determines the reality of your life.
Remember this: The picture in your mind determines the reality of your life.
