“If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land.” –Isaiah 1:19
Believing is only the beginning. To get your supernatural breakthrough, you also need to decide and say by faith, I will. This declaration brings your will in line with your faith. It’s deciding to take a stand to break through every hindrance—and win.
When you say, “I will,” you’re saying, “I will have faith in God. I will believe His Word. I will pursue faith and receive every promise He has for me. I will refuse to give up until I see my supernatural breakthrough.”
It’s the epitome of a willing heart. That may sound simple, but so many Christians aren’t willing to do what it takes to receive by faith. They’d rather blame God for whatever is wrong or missing—saying, “Well, it must not be God’s will.”
Not so!
He created us for fellowship with Him—for relationship. And a healthy relationship can’t exist without free will. That means we have a part to play in it. Everything that happens is not necessarily God’s will; otherwise, everyone on the planet would be saved. God doesn’t want anyone to be destroyed but wants everyone to repent (2 Peter 3:9).
When you’re willing to do what it takes to activate your faith—you will have what you’re standing for.
Are you willing?
- Are you willing to renew your mind continually with the Word of God?
- Are you willing to leave behind old habits and anything that hinders you?
- Are you willing to seek counsel from mature faith-living believers and then receive what they say, rather than reject it?
- Are you willing to make necessary adjustments in your thinking and living?
If so, say, “I will.”
Isaiah 1:19 confirms that there is good awaiting you if you are willing and obedient. It is time to declare “I will…” Your “I Will” is critical to your receiving.
