Miracles are God's will for all Christians, not just a few "special" believers. However, many Christians believe that's it's not God's will to heal them or bring complete restoration to their lives. In There's a Miracle in Your Mouth, E. W. Kenyon and Don Gossett share how your attitudes and what you say may be keeping you from experiencing the fullness of God's power in you. Begin today living the joy-filled, abundant life that God promises to all of His children!
The words you speak and proclaim by faith are spirit and life. Inside of you are seeds of greatness and your thoughts must be must be right. If you can speak it by faith, see it; feel it and you will have it. By your words you are justify or condemn. Your words are vital important. God's word carries His power and life. You are so important and precious that God the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit created you and He want to lavish His love on you. When God creates, He creates with precision and purpose. He created lights for a purpose and darkness for another purpose and created man (you) for a purpose. That purpose is for fellowship, to rule over, to reign over, to be responsible, to be master of all, and complete authority over, power over, dominion over the earth. Gen 1:26-28 " 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth". (KJV) The starting point of fulfilling God's purpose for anyone therefore, is to be productive. God's highest purpose for you is revealed in this passage as being "to show forth or proclaim the praises of God who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light". To show is to demonstrate or display or express as God's own special people, the praises of God. Your purpose is to declare to people. Announce it to the world the praises of Him. We are therefore primarily made as agents of worship to glorify God our maker. May you live up to God's expectations of His glory being made manifest in every area of your life, in Jesus Name. The Bible says in Eph 1:5 & 11 "we are predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things after the counsel of his own will". This means that no one can determine his purpose in life by himself because it has been predetermined before the creation of the world and therefore not open to choice. The purpose of every human being in this world is to glorify God. Faith sees beyond the moment. Faith sees beyond the problem. Faith is not bound to the present but crates room for the future to be realized. Faith focuses on the glorious outcome on the other side of a calamity. Do you think you have missed it beyond repairs? Have faith in God. Do you think that opportunity will never come again? Have faith in God. 1 John 5:4-5 "Every child of God can defeat the world, and our faith is what gives us this victory". (CEV)

Associate Pastor at Lakewood Church and sister to Joel Osteen, Lisa Osteen Comes, demonstrates how to keep an attitude of faith in discouraging times and to trust God in every season. At times, we all find ourselves in seasons of waiting—for our dreams to be fulfilled, our prayers to be answered, or our circumstances to change. But your dream has an appointed time and God always has victory in store for you. And the seasons of waiting don't need to be periods of discouragement or hopelessness. Instead, they can be rich periods of joy, growth and preparation for the plans and promotion that God has in store for you. In It's On the Way, Lisa Osteen Comes reminds readers that during these inevitable times in our lives, God is faithful and our current season is temporary. Lisa teaches readers how to press through challenges, quit taking shortcuts instead of trusting God to give you His best, allow God to fight your battles, and silence the enemy within, while giving encouragement and practical steps to take when you don’t know what to do next.

SMITH WIGGLESWORTH * It is quite clear to me that faith inspires you to pray, but FAITH will COMMAND you to COMMAND. And if you are in the place of real faith when these things come up against you, you will say "Get thee behind me" no matter what it is.* Still, there is not any movement in a dead, dry valley until the word of the Lord is SPOKEN. The bones are dry, very dry and dead. But what does is it matter? God has SPOKEN, and the WORD has gone forth. What is it that is SPOKEN? Ah, it is only that the word of God has gone forth through his servant the prophet. " * He spoke the word and the stars came into being. Can He not SPEAK the word that will produce a mighty faith in us? Ah, this One who is the author and finisher of our faith comes and dwells within us, quickens us by His Spirit, and molds us by His will. * Christ word had creative force. He was not living on the line of speculation. He SPOKE, and something happened. He spoke at the beginning and the world came into being. He SPEAKS today, and these things have to come to pass. *"Jesus said, 'Be not afraid, only believe' (Mark 5:36). He SPEAKS the word just in time! Jesus is never behind time." *I feel that if I ever SPEAK, it must be by the Spirit. At the same time remember that the prophet must PROPHESY according to the measure of faith.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
