I AM what?!?

"Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved." We all have heard this scripture, but did you know God says this twice in the New Testament (Acts &Romans) and it is a quote from the Old Testament. When God says something that many times, we know there is great power in that word for us. "Whoever calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved."

What did God tell Moses is His Name?   He said," I AM that I AM."  He is the great I AM.  The Lord instructed us in His Word:

Let the weak say I am strong. 
Let the poor say I am rich.

Look at that instruction / statement closely:

Say I AM strong!
Say I AM rich!

We are saying His Name.  We are saying His characteristics.  We are also saying this truth and applying it to ourselves and our un-toward circumstances of being weak and poor. 

The saying and the believing result in the receiving. Say that again. Let that important truth sink deep into your thinking patterns. Allow that truth to regulate your speech patterns!

                                        SAYING -BELIEVING- RECEIVING.

As I SAY His word, BELIEVING His word, I will soon be RECEIVING His word's effects!!

Soon, my weakness is swallowed up in receiving His strength by calling His name. Soon, my poorness is obliterated by receiving His riches by calling on His name. His riches are the supply to stamp out my lack.  "My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches..." 

When you are experiencing sickness, you say the truth of His report..."by His stripes I am healed."  By doing this, you are changing the circumstance and overcoming the "evil" of sickness with the "good" of healing.  You are "calling those things that be not as though they were".  You are calling on the name of the Lord (I AM healed) and you are being saved "sozo" which means- "rescued, delivered, safe, heal, protect, preserve, made whole."

Your mouth is given to you for a very important purpose.  The purpose is NOT to report on how you feel or what your circumstances look like.  That is walking by sight and emotion.  The purpose of your mouth is to say His report instead.  Your mouth saying the truth about His report by faith is bringing those very things into existence in your world. Those things you have need of already exist in glory (His Spirit realm)and you get to receive them (in the here and now earth realm)by believing and saying.

 Many believers believe those things exist, but they say with their mouth only what they see.
Walking by faith means we believe what we do not see AND we say what He says even though we do not yet see it!  But we will see it come into manifestation in our world by believing and saying.  When you believe in your heart and speak - "you shall have whatsoever you say." 

Say, I AM strong.  Say, I AM rich. Say, I AM healed.  Say, I AM loved.

Utilize the power of His Name and the power of His word to get His will done in your life.
