Imagining creates reality. What I hold in my mind is the blueprint for what I will think, feel, say, and do. Every created thing was first an image in mind that someone manifested. What I image is what I am informing God, as Divine Law, that I want to experience, especially when it is connected to a strong feeling.
My imagination gives me the ability to prophesy into my life. I declare “Thus said the LORD” with the images I hold in my mind. I can see into my own future because I know what type of images I consistently hold in my mind. If I want a new future, I must create new images to think about.
What type of life do I want? How much peace do I want to experience? How healthy do I want to be? How prosperous do I desire to be? The answers to all these questions will be determined by the creative power of the mind called imagination and how I use it.
What I hold in my mind manifests in my life. I am a co-creator with God, and I design my life based on the divine patterns God feeds my imagination. My images become “flesh” as experiences in my life.
Audibly affirm: God has given me the power to create my life as I desire. I behold God’s grace in my life as abundance, peace, health, and joy. I see it and I claim it!
“And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14 NRSVUE
