The promises of God that come because of faith in Jesus, through the Word of the Living God, must be grasped. They are sitting out there like cherries on a cherry tree, ripe and delicious, but need to be picked to enjoy. This takes some effort on your part. If you sit in an easy chair under the cherry tree, a cherry could perhaps drop into your mouth, but chances are, you are going to have to raise your hand, and use a couple of digits to pick a cherry. In other words, there has to be some DOING. In the spirit realm, it is the same way. You must acknowledge the promises, speak them out of your mouth, and then chew on them until you see them come to pass in the natural world. You have to Grab Hold of them, and not let go, until you see the fruit or promises appear. God “calls those things that are not as though they are” (Romans 4:17). That is a supernatural thing, that only supernatural people can do. That is YOU if you know Jesus!.. There is a time-frame between saying and seeing, where you have to endure and BELIEVE that God’s Word will come true. Grab Hold, and reach up to Heaven. Hang on no matter what you see, the answers are on the way!
