### Summary
Welcome to a new month, and we are grateful to God for His continuous blessings. This month, we focus on Christ for supernatural solutions. We recently had a successful Couples Getaway program, and we pray that our marriages and realities continue to improve in Jesus' name. For those who couldn't make it, we hope they can join us next time. We also have our Fasting and Prayer program starting tomorrow, so prepare your hearts to seek the Lord.
Today, we delve into the power of the spoken word and how to harness it for supernatural solutions. I want you to understand that anything is possible if you work in partnership with God. Reflecting on my own journey, I came to this country over 12 years ago with nothing. For the first six months, I had no job, but I had a productive mind. I spent my time praying, meditating on the Word, and listening to messages that encouraged my faith. This strategic focus lifted me from ground zero to a point of abundance.
The principles of God's Word are eternal and work anywhere in the world. Abraham's story is a testament to this. He lived in the land of promise, looking for a city with foundations. He didn't want a life without the foundation of Scripture because if man makes you, man can destroy you. Pray in the spirit and commit your plans to the Lord. God will bring the right people and resources into your life.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. Through faith, we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God. This same principle applies to our lives today. Whatever you hope for, your faith will give substance to it. Hope is futuristic, but faith brings it into the now. Engage your faith to convert your hopes into tangible realities.
Jacob's story with Laban illustrates the power of faith and strategic action. Laban tried to cheat Jacob by removing all the speckled and spotted sheep, but God gave Jacob a vision. Jacob used fresh branches to create a visual representation of what he wanted to see. When the sheep mated in front of these branches, they produced speckled and spotted offspring. This strategy, given by the Holy Spirit, made Jacob very wealthy.
Never be limited by what you see around you. The apostles gave themselves to the Word and prayer, and they experienced supernatural solutions. The woman with the issue of blood touched Jesus' garment with faith and was healed. She didn't need a physical touch; her faith made her whole. Similarly, we must engage with the Word and prayer to experience the supernatural.
Your mind is the womb of your future. Abraham's situation seemed hopeless, but God helped him by changing his imagination. God told Abraham to look at the stars and promised that his descendants would be as numerous. This vision helped Abraham believe in the impossible. God also changed his name to "Father of Nations," reinforcing the promise every time someone called his name.
Write your vision and make it plain. Meditate on the Word and keep your goals in front of you. Your faith will bring your hopes into reality. Even if you are at ground zero, you can rise to abundance by engaging with the principles of faith. The future belongs to those who can see the invisible. People of the world are using principles from the Bible, like vision boards, to achieve their goals. We should do the same.
In conclusion, focus on Christ for supernatural solutions. Everything you desire already exists in the realm of possibilities. Engage your faith, pray, and meditate on the Word. God will bring the right people and resources into your life. You will move from ground zero to ground surplus. Believe in the impossible, and it will become your reality.
