Lisa Notes: Imagine you believe

What if you believed . . . God really is all powerful?

What if you believed . . . you are more loved than you dream, just as you are, right now?

What if you believed . . . you’ve already been given everything you need?

What if you believed . . . Jesus is inside you, all the time, everywhere?

What if you believed . . . everything really will turn out okay in the end?

What if you believed . . . every promise of God will come true?

What if you believed . . . the Spirit would never not empower you?

What if you believed . . . you’ll always know what you need to know at the right time?

What if you believed . . . you will honor God today by believing?

What if you believed . . . all of it is true—every story, every miracle, every grace—and lived like you believed it?

Imagine that.

* * *

It’s raw thought—5 minutes of writing with no editing—on Imagine. So this must be what’s on the tip of my brain, for better or worse.

What would you add? What if you believed . . . ?

Can you imagine it?

Rest assured, Lisa, the five minutes that it took you to write down those things which were on the tip of your brain were five minutes not wasted...they were a powerful five minutes! My first thought, "what if...I lived ...truly lived...as if I believed even just one or two of those things you listed as if I believed it?" Thank you, Sister, for some food for thought as I go through my day today.

You're such an encourager, Dianna. Thanks for having such an open heart and spilling your love out on me. It's easier for me to believe there is a God of all love when I see sisters like you.

Yes, one day at the name of Jesus every knee will bow and every tongue will confess. What we imagine will come true.

Dear Lisa
We would believe the truth if we believe all these things! And ifvthatbwas the truth for everyone on earth, can you imagine what a wonderful place this world would have been.
Happy FMF.
Mia

I confess it's hard to even imagine how different things would be if we all believed all truth.... Would love to see it though!

Imagine if I really believed that Jesus Christ really does provide ALL I need, has ALREADY provided all I need and there is no where that I am out of His presence? I can say I believe that intellectually and "think" I believe it with all my heart but.... does my life reflect that? Imagine all the glory that would bring our God and Savior!!
Thank you sister for always stretching my mind regarding our Lord!

It stretches me, too, Selwyn. I'm right there with you--in my HEAD I know it's true (or at least I like to give myself credit for that...) but I'm still working it all down into my heart. You help me believe more when I hear you and watch you and learn from you. God IS glorified through you!

This is a powerful reminder of what we are to believe constantly instead of letting the world crowd into our minds and pollute our soul. What if we lived and believed what we say we do? Oooo, this is place to decide if we want to be genuine in our faith or a hypocrite... In the end it is our choice...
My recent post ONE THING LEADS TO ANOTHER

I hear you telling me: "Set your mind on things above." Yes, it is a choice. Praying for more genuine faith instead of a polluted soul....

Hi Lisa! YES! God does for us more than we can possibly believe or imagine! I have some BIG THINGS I am believing Him for as my Shepherd just now, and my play addresses knowing Him as Shepherd - Psalm 23 like you've never seen it before! Hope you can tune in tonight - closing night. You will be blessed - so many amazing testimonies of how the Lord has used this story and is changing lives right now! live.ccvineland.org at 7:05pm EST
Joy!

I'm sorry I wasn't able to tune in, Kathy. I pray it went well and touched many. Such a blessing that you've found multiple outlets to use your gifts to glorify the Lord!

If I believed all that, with all my heart and soul, my entire worldview would be rocked (yet again!) and I would be living differently with a much better attitude.

My recent post Island of the Blue Dolphins :: RtK Book Club May Discussion

Yes, Carrie. If I could really, really believe even more, it would rock my world (again, yes!). We believe; Lord, help our unbelief....
