PRAY, BELIEVE, VISUALIZE AND TAKE ACTION
Read: MARK 11:20-24
Meditation verse:
“Therefore, I say to you, whatever things you ask for when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them” (Mark 11:24)
Recently, I had a peculiar challenge that seemed to defy every solution. I took it to God in prayers and desperately asked for His help. As I prayed passionately, I began to visualize the solution. I could literally see what the solution looked like. It was so real; I could almost touch it. After praying, I took a few steps as I felt led to and forgot about the problem. A few hours later, I received the solution to that situation and to my amazement, it looked exactly as I had envisioned it would.
As I pondered over my experience, it dawned on me that perhaps the reason why I had failed to receive answers in the past was due to unbelief and lack of expectation. Jesus told his disciples that whatever they asked for when they prayed, they must first believe that they will receive it. And when you believe that you will receive something, you adopt an attitude of expectation, visualize, or anticipate it and begin to prepare for it.
I learnt a vital lesson that Sunday afternoon. To receive your answers, pray, believe, visualize, and act. Do not stop at praying. Every step counts!
IN HIS PRESENCE is written by Oke Chinye.
Have you asked Jesus Christ to come into your heart?
He says in Mathew 11:28, “come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” He longs to give you rest."
Would you like to do so now? Here’s a prayer you can say:
Dear Jesus, I believe that You died to save me from all my sins. Today, I invite you into my heart and I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Please forgive all my sins and help me to live my life for You.
