SAY, “AMEN!”
But even now I know that whatever You ask of God,
God will give You. John 11:22 NKJV
Your life is a big deal, and it needs to be lived well. God is trusting you to live a life that He has paid for you to live, so don’t squander that gift. There’s a big difference between an epic life and a nominal life. Epic means “heroic, majestic, impressively great.” Nominal means “existing in name only, very small.”
What’s real is it’s up to you if your walk with Jesus is epic or if it is nominal.
It’s up to you – not anybody else – if you have the kind of walk with Jesus that provokes people to jealousy. They should see your blessed life and say, “What do they have that I don’t?”
On the flip side, you can also be the kind of Christian that causes people to hate Christianity. It’s up to you; that’s not up to anybody else.
“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” – Luke 6:38
This verse says that it’s not up to God; it’s up to you to determine how much of the kingdom you get into your life. God has already said, “Yes,” and your job is to say, “Amen.” The Bible says that the promises of God are “yes and amen.” Amen means “let it be established” or “make this thing happen!” It’s a big deal to tell the Lord “Amen,” and it comes with all kinds of blessings and upgrades that are, well, epic. Are you ready to shake the nominal?
Declaration: God has said Yes to the plan and purpose He has that will give me a meaningful, abundant life. I add my Amen and seek Him, His Word, and His ways in every way I can. I am a blessed child of the Lord Most High.
