The Creative Word

Before something comes into existence in the natural realm, it is first created by the Word of Faith! It is first declared and proclaimed. The process begins when those with "ears to hear" receive a Word of Knowledge, a Word of Wisdom, a prophetic word. Inherent in the Word of God is the seed of that which is spoken. When we unite our faith with the Word and speak it forth, the power of the Holy Spirit creates that which is spoken.

It is the Lord's way to first speak (declare and proclaim) that which He has created, and then, once announced, it comes forth into the natural realm (much like a child being born). And so we see that the thing created originated with God, and not with man.

Isa.42:9 - "Behold, the former things have come to pass. Now I declare new things. Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you."

"spring" - according to Webster's dictionary, means to come up or out of something into existence; implies rapid or sudden emerging (as in creation or birth)

Heb.11:3 - "By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible." (They were spoken into existence)

Isa.48:3-7 - "I declared the former things long ago, and they went forth from My mouth, and I proclaimed them. Suddenly I acted and they came to pass...Therefore I declared them to you long ago. Before they took place I proclaimed them to you...I proclaim to you new things from this time, even hidden things which you have not known. They are created now and not long ago."

Nugget of Gold: The Lord is doing something new in this season! We must listen carefully to what He is saying to us individually, as well as corporately, and come into quick agreement with it. Then, we must declare, decree, and proclaim that which the Holy Spirit is speaking over our lives, our families, our jobs, our ministry, the nation, etc. When we follow this "pattern", we will see those things which we are speaking "spring forth" into this natural realm.

The Lord is doing a quick work in this day. It is imperative that we hear Him speak and then speak what we hear!
