Seeds Of Destiny 9th November 2023: Creating Mental Pictures From Scriptures

The Seed of Destiny Devotional is filled with refreshing, instructive, soul-lifting, and life-changing content. The Dunamis Gospel Centre SOD daily devotional is designed to load you daily with God’s word and keep you inspired, encouraged, and uplifted.  Below is today’s (9th November 2023) message, titled “Creating Mental Pictures From Scriptures”.

SCRIPTURE: By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. Hebrews 11:37.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Seeing the invisible makes it easy to believe the incredible.

It has been established that when God wants you to do the incredible, He shows you the invisible. Seeing the invisible makes it easy to believe the incredible.

When the Church, Dunamis International Centre, was at our previous location, Area 1, Garki, Abuja, there were some slight delays with getting filled at some point.

Then I saw in Mark 2:1 that Jesus was in a house and it was noised abroad; and that because of that, there was not room enough to receive the multitude. Many people were gathered so much that there was no room left to receive more people. And He preached to them. This means that the people were outside. The place was not enough for them.

So, in my mind, I began to see the Area 1 Church jammed with people, and some standing outside. So, we put chairs outside for those people who would not have space to sit inside. We put chairs outside for overflow when the main sanctuary was not yet filled.

This was because I saw it in Scripture, and turned the Scripture into a picture. If the Scripture says that there was no room around the door, it means that people stayed outside. It means that they filled the house to overflow.

Then I wrote the number of the expected attendance for each service everywhere. I put it on the ceiling of my bedroom. And I looked at it whenever I lay down to sleep. I put it on the wall of the toilet, on the fridge, and on my reading tables, and forced the pictures to enter into me. When the picture settled, we began to see the physical overflows filled until they were completely filled. Then we had first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth services.

During conventions, we would have up to fourteen overflows. Beloved, always understand that seeing the invisible makes it easy to believe the incredible.

• Remember this: Seeing the invisible makes it easy to believe the incredible
