Goodseed Daily Devotional 9th October 2024
TOPIC: CREATING MENTAL PICTURES FROM SCRIPTURES
SCRIPTURE: By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
HEBREWS 11:37.
It has been established that when God wants you to do the incredible, He shows you the invisible. Seeing the invisible makes it easy to believe the incredible.
When I started gathering young people for conventions in my early age in ministry, I had a slight challenge of getting much people to attend at the beginning.
Then I saw in Mark 2:1 that Jesus was in a house and it was noised abroad; and that because of that, there was not room enough to receive the multitude. Many people were gathered so much that there was no room left to receive more people. And He preached to them. This means that the people were outside. The place was not enough for them.
So, in my mind, I began to see my events jammed with people, and some standing outside. So, we put chairs outside for those people who would not have space to sit inside. We put chairs outside for overflow when the main hall we were using was not yet filled.
This was because I saw it in Scripture, and turned the Scripture into picture. If the Scripture says that there was no room around the door, it means that people stayed outside. It means that they filled the house to overflow.
Then I wrote the number of the expected attendance for each meeting everywhere. I put it on the celling of my bedroom. And I looked at it whenever I lay down to sleep. I put it on the wall of the toilet, on the fridge, on my reading tables, and forced the pictures to enter into me. When the picture settled, we began to see the physical overflows filled until they were completely filled. At a time we had to employ the services of security men to help us control the crowd.
Beloved, always understand that seeing the invisible makes it easy to believe the incredible.
You must begin to See pictures out of Scriptures whenever you study the Word of God. Make those pictures reality in your life.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You open my eyes to see pictures from Scriptures. I receive the grace to embrace the responsibility of making the pictures reality in my life, in Jesus’ Name.
