When Abraham expressed his frustration to God, saying, “Lord God, what will You give me, seeing I go childless?,”God immediately brought him out of the tent and told him to look at and count the stars in the heavens. Genesis 15

Abraham’s reaction was immediate. He had faith in God. He proved this with his obedience for almost 25 years. He believed in His immeasurable power.

However, he had difficulty seeing the invisible and believing the impossible. Once his vision was opened, “the penny dropped” and he understood the Greatness of the Almighty God. This is, Abraham believed in God, but he did not imagine His Power of creation, His Greatness…

You cannot separate faith from the imagination. Those who believe must imagine what they want to achieve. The countless testimonies we have seen at the Universal Church are proof of this.

Many poor people have achieved a life of quality by faith. But, not everyone. Why is this? Because they were raised subject to a culture of poverty. After living in poverty for twenty, thirty, fifty years, they end up limiting themselves, and God, because they think it is a sin to have an abundant life.

On the other hand, there are those who once had the best this land has to offer but fell into disgrace, lost everything, including their dignity. But when they learn about the promises of God, they immediately put their faith in practice through sacrifice, and regain and multiply what they lost. This happens because they once had access to wealth. This is, even in poverty, they preserve the vision of a prosperous life. This vision is what makes the difference.

Abraham must have seen those same stars countless times, but he never thought his descendants would be innumerable like them.

In other words, it is not enough to believe in the Almighty God. You must imagine Him realizing impossible and powerful things.

To materialize the faith, we have to imagine what we want.

The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying, ‘Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass, and as I have purposed, so it shall stand.’ Isaiah 14.24

As I have thought, this is, as I IMAGINED, so it will HAPPEN;

As I have purposed, this is, BELIEVED (faith), IT WILL HAPPEN.

To imagine is to daydream, project, make a blueprint of what you want to accomplish in your mind. This is faith linked with imagination.

Those who believe, imagine, dream, project and draw what they want in their mind. And, never lose this vision!
