That is an unchangeable truth. A person without faith in action is bound to the realm of the natural, material and intellectual world of what is possible. But a person whose faith is in action hooks into Holy Spirit power of God — and impossible things happen in their life.

That is how Jesus did all those impossible things when He was on earth. He fulfilled His calling the same way you and I have to do it, by using His faith to hook into supernatural power.

It does not matter how impossible something may be, when you are hooked by faith to the supernatural, you are hooked up to God and all things are possible to Him!

Much love,
Joseph

Hearing from heaven is the most important thing in your whole life! That’s because you can never come up with a problem too big for God to solve.

The important thing to remember, however, is that you can’t turn the wisdom of God on and off like a water faucet. You’ve got to make a lifestyle of it.

If you want to be sure that the wisdom of God will be there for you when the crisis hits, you need to start listening for His guidance now.

Learn to seek His wisdom, to listen for His instructions on the little, everyday matters of life. That way, when the big problems come, you’ll be ready. You’ll be in the habit of hearing from heaven.

Much love,
Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/29/10

When hard times come, they are never as hard as they look. That’s important. Hard times are not as hard as they look, unless you are looking in the wrong place, through the wrong eyes, thinking the wrong thoughts, and imitating the wrong people.

At the onset, some problems look absolutely hopeless and insurmountable. But with a little changing of your thinking, they can shrink back to a realistic size.

Wrong thoughts will paint the wrong pictures in your mind. They will tell you things are worse than they are. They will tell you that you don’t have what it takes to succeed in life, or that the right opportunity won’t come to you. But I’m here to tell you, you can succeed!

It does not matter how bad the economy is. People who understand money are not afraid of hard times.

So how do we change our thinking? If we want to live the kind of life God has in mind for us, we must exchange our thoughts for His thoughts. We must lay down the perspectives we have gained through past experiences and instead pick up the wisdom of God—His Word. Through the Word of God we’ll learn what reality is. We’ll learn what is really going on in the world. And we’ll learn His plan for getting through it in victory.

So the answer to every problem is in the Word. Let the Word change your thinking. Remember, times are not as hard as they look when you look from God’s viewpoint!

Much love,
Joseph
