Me-Maw Thoughts

Number 325

Our brain is an amazing thing and out of it comes our imagination that can have us in incredible places doing incredible things or seeing our friends and family doing amazing and incredible things.

Children have wonderful imaginations that just make childhood fun and exciting.

Imagination comes from the brain and is thoughts we think and allow to grow in our minds.

Webster gives the definition of THINK as:

  • to devise by thinking
  • to have as an expectation
  • to center one’s thoughts on
  • to form a mental picture of

Webster gives the definition of IMAGINE as:

  • to form a mental image of (something not present)
  • to form a notion of without sufficient basis

The definition of think and imagine are very similar so in the following scripture think could also be rendered as imagine.

Ephesians 3:20 (KJV)
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Ephesians 3:20 (AMP)
20 Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]—

Ephesians 3:20 (MSG)
20 God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us.

I ask you today: What can you think and formulate in your mind?

I don’t know who: but someone said:  “If you can think it, you can achieve it!”

I listed above three translation of the verse in Ephesians that talks about what we ask, think and imagine.

But did you notice that the key to the things you ask or imagine happening is the Spirit of the Living God working in you.  When you give your entire being to the Lord Jesus Christ He will work within you and your mind so that the imaginations and the dreams and the thoughts become realities.

The only restriction placed on having anything we can ask or imagine become a reality is ALLOWING THE SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD TO CONTROL our mind, will and emotions.

We do that when we first accept Jesus Christ as our Savior and then proceed to give every area of our lives to His Lordship.

Remember that it was beyond anyone’s rational thinking that Jesus could raise from the dead, but that became a reality.

What can you think or imagine: What is outside your realm of reality?  May I tell you today that when you release all you are to the control and guidance of the Lord Jesus they can all become realities!

Let the child of God within you loose and begin to think and imagine the amazing things that do not make common logical sense. May we delight in the Lord God Almighty and walk in the lightness of His Joy!

Let God Control and then you Imagine!!!!

_______________________________________________

Father God, I come to you in Jesus Name. From the innermost depths of my being I desire more of you. I desire to praise and please you.  I desire that you are in control of every area of my life and therefore I am free to imagine and dream and expect those dreams and desires to become a reality. I Trust you and ask you to have your way in my life. Amen

What are you imagining?

Love, Me-Maw
