Just Ask

-
"Aslan- and children from another world," thought Tirian. 

"They have always come in when things were at there worst. Oh, if they could only come now."And he called out, "Aslan! Aslan! Aslan! Come help us now."
And still there was no change in the night or the wood, but there began to be a kind  of change in Tirian. Without knowing why, he began to feel a faint hope. And he felt somehow stronger.
"Oh Aslan, Aslan," he whispered. 
"If you will not come yourself, please send your helpers from beyond the world. Or let me call them. Let my voice carry beyond the world." (The Last Battle)

Sometimes when we feel the most hopeless, those are perfect times for miracles to occur. One way to get your hopes up is to ask for what you desire. If you desire joy, ask for joy.  If you desire healing, ask for healing. The start of hope is in the asking and when we ask we are speaking it out. We are starting our decree. Once we ask we need to believe it is already been done. That debt is being paid. That addiction is gone. That relationship restored. Those are all miracles. We believe in the power of the miracle by thanking the Creator in advance. We thank Aslan for the power he gave us. We thank him for sending the help.  Listen to the words of the Great Spirit, "You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; And light will shine on your ways."  What does that mean? It means that we can take our hope and turn it into faith. Faith is just hope in action. Our hope becomes faith when we decree what we desire and align it to Great Spirit's promises. When we speak it out it comes alive. We feel stronger. Like Tirian in the Last Battle, when things look bleak, call on the name of Aslan and make your decree. When you do hope will rise and light will shine on all of your ways. 



A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the wind, thank you for your son Aslan, the Great Lion. Thank you for sending him to help us on our journey. We thank you for the gift of Aslan awakening on the inside of us and giving us hope. We declare your goodness and power in our life, thank you for the great opportunities you have for us today.  Thank you for shifting us from despair to hope, from lack to abundance, and from average to extraordinary.  Thank you for exceeding our expectations in all that we ask or think. By the Lion's Mane, Let this be so.

The True Sign of Maturity

[A Year with Aslan, Lewis, 2010] "Aslan, Aslan, dear Aslan," sobbed Lucy, "at last."     The GREAT LION rolled over on his side so that Lucy fell, half sitting and half lying between his paws. He [Aslan] bent forward and touched her nose with his tongue. His warm breath came around her. She gazed up into his large, wise face.    "Welcome, child," he said.    "Aslan," Lucy said, "you're bigger."    "That is because you are older, little one," answered he.    "Not because you are?"    "I am not. But every year you grow you will find me bigger." What does it mean to you that each year you grow, we discover the Great Lion to be bigger? A PRAYER FOR TODAY GREAT SPIRIT, thank you that each year we live you become bigger on the inside of us. Thank you that the Great Lion grows bigger and more powerful in and through us every year of our life. Thank you for giving us the wisdom to see your mysterie...

Giant Slayer

“A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before great men.” (Proverbs 18:16, NASB) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria When people hear the story of David and Goliath, sometimes they think, “That was all God.” And yes, in a sense, it was all God; but God didn’t sling the stone. David had a role to play, too. God gave David the skill that he had to develop in order to be prepared for that defining moment. Like David, God has put skills inside of you so that you can slay the giants in your life. You have the skills that can open new doors, skills that can lead to an abundant life, but the key is that the skills have to be developed. Every day that you spend growing, learning and improving, you’re getting prepared for that new level. Today, while you’re waiting for that new opportunity, start sharpening your skills. Study your boss. Study your manager. Learn that position. Be able to step into their shoes. When God sees that you are prepared, then He can ...

You Get What You Think

“The fears ….. will be fulfilled; the hopes of the godly will be granted.” (Proverbs 10:14 NLT) Our life will always move to what we think about most, which is why it is so important to guard your mind. If you are not careful you can think about only negative things and you become a negative person. Have you ever been around that person who only has the news channel on in their house? They are always talking about how bad things are, how things just seem to be getting worse, the world is coming to an end. That person over time, if you take notice, will become a very cynical, negative person. Why? They were moving toward what they were watching and thinking about.  We also know those people who let their fears take hold of their life, “My car is going to break down this week, and I just know it”or“I knew we wouldn’t be able to go on that vacation, I just knew I would get downsized.” What happened? Your fears were fulfilled. ...
