Believe It And Receive It

When you are seeking God for something or confronted with a problem that threatens your peace and joy you, a Godly mindset is extremely important to maintain hope and peace of mind. You must believe that God is who he said he is and will do what he said he will do. It is essential for you to believe in God’s purpose and power and to prepare yourself to receive what you need from the Lord.

Four spiritual beliefs lay a solid foundation for believing God. The points to remember are:

  1. Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. (1 John 4:4 )
  2. Have faith. Faith comes by hearing the word of God (Romans 10:17)
  3. All things work together for your good.(Romans 8:28 )
  4. You are an overcomer. (Revelation 12:11)

In addition to believing God, you must prepare yourself to receive from God. There is often a lot of negative and distressing thoughts and feelings that accompany conflict and doubt. Your doubts and internal emotional conflict can delay the blessing. Prepare to receive from God.

 

Receive It

  1. Open your mind to truth (Romans 12:2)
  2. Open your spiritual ears to hear God speak. (John 10:27)
  3. Open your spiritual eyes to see past your circumstances. (Philippians 3:14)
  4. Open your heart to give and receive the love of God (Matthew 22:37, 39)
  5. Open your hands which is symbolic of surrendering all to God (1 Peter 5:6-7)

Once you have believed and received, don’t be afraid to act on it. Live life according to the truth God has given you. This means you step out in faith and move forward while expecting God to show up in your circumstances. Always be mindful of the power and presence of God. It will take you from focusing on the problem to praising God for the victory.
