(Get To Lay Hold On Spiritual Realities)
TO THE BIBLE: Hebrews 11:1 AMPC
“Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].
LET’S TALK
Being born again, you belong in the Kingdom of God’s dear Son, which is a spiritual kingdom. In this kingdom, God has blessed you with all spiritual blessings.
These include all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3); everything you could ever want that’s consistent with God’s perfect will for your life is already yours in Christ.
Healing, prosperity, success, and the life of constant victories are realities that you can apprehend in the spirit realm and that are appropriate to your life.
However, laying hold on these and other spiritual realities in order to make them real—vital, tangible experiences—in your personal life has to be done by faith!
What’s faith? Faith is the response of the human spirit to the Word of God, meaning faith comprises the actions you take, your response to the realities that you see in God’s Word.
Faith is acting on those realities defined for us by the Holy Spirit, apprehending the realities of the spiritual kingdom to which you belong, and superimposing them on the natural world.
In other words, when you talk about your health, healing, prosperity, and glorious life in Christ, you’re not merely trying to make something happen; rather, you’re only walking in the realities that exist in the spirit realm to which you belong.

1 Corinthians 2:12; Hebrews 2:4
Pray:
Heavenly Father, I thank you for the power of your Word and the ministry of the Holy Spirit in my life. I thank you for enlightening my spirit to know and apprehend all that you’ve made available to me in Christ. I’m walking in the reality of my inheritance in Christ, conscious that I’ve overcome the world and its systems, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
