The Power of a DaySample

“Beliefs and thoughts alter cells in your body.” – Bruce Lipton, Biology of Belief

In Luke chapter 8, Jesus is in the middle of a tsunami of people. Jairus, a leader in the synagogue, requests Jesus to come with him to heal his daughter. While he attempts to move in that direction, Luke writes, “the crowd was nearly crushing Him.”

During this time, a woman with an issue of blood fights her way through the crowd for a chance to touch Jesus. When she does, she is instantly healed. I want to remind you that this woman was broke because of her illness. She had tried everything to heal herself. Nothing worked. The fact she came out amongst the crowd was a death sentence for her. She could have been stoned to death if the crowd had found out. Nevertheless, her faith caused her to see beyond her sickness. Her belief was altering the cells in her body.

In the book Biology of Belief, a former medical professor at Stanford, James Lipton, says, “beliefs and thoughts alter cells in your body.” What I love about what James says is his confirmation of what God’s Word says. His research shows the correlation between belief and your body at the cellular level.

The day before, the woman with the issue of blood touched Jesus; she was broken. She was sick. She was broke. Her life was at stake. But when The Power of a Day took over, everything changed. Her belief brought her to Jesus. Her faith restored her body. Her perspective changed her life.

What about your life?

Are you in the midst of sickness or a troubling situation?

Do you feel like you have tried everything and nothing seems to work?

Do you feel your life is at stake?

Do you need a miracle in your life?

Can I put some more faith into your day today?

The Power of a Day is a reminder of Romans 10:17, “Faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God.” No matter the circumstance, it is your decision to determine your perspective.

What types of faith are you installing into your life today? Let’s break it down into VARK learning styles (visual, auditory, reading, kinesthetic).

What is producing faith for you visually?

What is producing faith for you in an auditory setting?

What is producing faith for you as you read?

What is producing faith for you in a kinesthetic setting?

Whatever your learning style may be, are you fueling it for faith?

If not, why not? This could be the sign and wake-up call you have been praying for?

Can you begin to see The Power of a Day in your own life? Can you imagine and see what a miracle would look like?

Can you see yourself living in peace?

Hebrews 13:8 says, “Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” What can happen to a woman desperate for a miracle can happen for you. Even the word impossible has possible in it.

What if you are in the middle of The Power of a Day moment?

What if your faith is only being tested?

What if your mess is about to become your message?

What if your obstacles are your opportunities?

My faith is bursting for you, and I’m believing for the Holy Spirit to sit with you even now. Take time in His presence. It’s the only thing that matters.

Let me know what resonated with you the most.

I’m rooting and praying with you.
