Seeing Is Believing Fon


Today is the day! Change is here! Everything I have said still stands! Keep doing what you’re doing. Keep praying! Keep fasting! Keep giving! Keep serving Me!

These were the words that I heard in my conversation with Holy Spirit this morning! As I worshipped and kept praying, He also said this: I love blessing My children. Only the best for Mine.

Over they last few years, the Holy Spirit has truly shown me a faithful love that never fails. He has always been here with me and like He reminded me yesterday, HE IS WITH ME! I am so grateful for His faithful love towards me.

Today I was excited to see what else He had to say to me from His Word. I flipped randomly to Isaiah 43!!! I knew I was in a for a real treat! The title of that chapter is: The Restoration of Israel. Now if you have been reading/listening all week, then you know this got me uber excited!!! The Holy Spirit has been confirming all week and He kept going this morning with scripture and Hope Words!

These are the scriptures that stood out to me:

43 But now, this is what the Lord says—
he who created you, Jacob,
he who formed you, Israel:
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
3 For I am the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I give Egypt for your ransom,
Cush and Seba in your stead.
4 Since you are precious and honored in my sight,
and because I love you,
I will give people in exchange for you,
nations in exchange for your life.
5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you;

11 I, even I, am the Lord,
and apart from me there is no savior.

18 Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.

— Isaiah 43: 1-4, 11, 18-19 NIV

When I read those verses, I knew it was the Holy Spirit highlighting them for me to SEE! My favorite verse is 19, where He says, SEE, I AM DOING A NEW THING!

The Hope Words near that passage of scripture said:

It’s one thing to say that God can make a way. It’s another thing to SEE Him make a way!

I believe that God will do a miracle today so that we can ALL SEE HIM MAKE A WAY! Seeing is believing!

As I kept flipping in my Bible, I landed on a few more scriptures, which were more confirmations. The Holy Spirit wanted me to SEE these scriptures today too!

20 for we are unable to stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.” — Acts 4:20 NIV

This verse let me know that I won’t be able to stop speaking about what I have seen and heard!!!

Then I got to Matthew and the Holy Spirit just SHOWED out with what He SHOWED ME!

28 Then Jesus replied to her, “Woman, your faith is great. Let it be done for you as you want.” And from that moment her daughter was healed. — Matthew 15:28 CSB

Then the disciples approached Jesus privately and said, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” “Because of your little faith,” he told them. “For truly I tell you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” — Matthew 17:19-20 CSB

“His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful over a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Share your master’s joy.’ — Matthew 25:21 CSB

Jesus came near and said to them, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember,I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20 CSB

I told you He showed out today! The final Hope Words that I saw sealed it for me!

Faith doesn’t make sense. It makes miracles!

Today I am encouraged by my conversation with God. I am confident that everything He has said is mine IS MINE! Seeing is believing. We all will see His miracle working power if we have faith. Nothing is impossible with God!

—I just love my conversations with God!


SALVATION PRAYER

If you don’t know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior and you’re not a believer, but you have a desire to be, all you have to do is openly confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead (Romans 10:9). When you pray that prayer, you are saved. Get connected with a good, bible-based church in your community, stay connected to other believers, and start having daily conversations through prayer with God every single day. Welcome to your new life with Jesus Christ!!!
