There’s more to it besides letting go and letting God have His way. In order for the
dream/vision to come to pass you have to change something, and the first thing
to change is your thinking.
Our mindset changes
when our faith becomes renewed by God’s Word. You’ve heard that
“faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.” (Romans 10:17) Faith
builds as it is flooded by
the voice of the Lord through listening to what He says on a subject.
After an accident at the place
where I was teaching emotionally disturbed children, I began listening to
inspirational preaching and teaching practically non-stop. Having a
lot to lose and believing God for my healing,
I listened to everything on the subject and how it was God’s will for me to be
healed.
This wasn’t just on Sunday’s
but daily from 6:00 am until 1:00 pm I would soak in the Word,
take notes and pray. Whether it was on television (we had it then),
CD or tapes, I listened to teaching from people I never heard before as well as
some I had, investing in myself so that I could hear the voice of the Holy
Spirit in my inner witness.
Either God’s Word was true or this
bible stuff wasn’t what I believed to be real after all. I was
committed to finding the truth about this book called the “Bible” and the
Author of it. I was hungry for guidance, knowledge and understanding
so that God’s wisdom in
my spirit came automatically.
As God’s Word became grafted into my spirit, it didn’t take long before my faith grew and grew. Before I realized it favor and wisdom also came when I had to go to court, because my thoughts lined up with God’s.
I went from having no vision of what God wanted for my life to walking out His plan and vision. If you are serious about receiving the favor and blessing of God in your life, begin by investing time in His word. He will deliver you out of your troubles by giving wisdom and favor for living out the vision He has for your life.
“… and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave
him favor and wisdom in the presence of
Pharaoh (in my case the judge), king of Egypt; and he made him governor over
Egypt and all his house.”
(Acts 7:10 NKJV)
