Acquiescence is Imagination

"EVERYTHING WAS FIRST IMAGINED," we are repeatedly told.

"Well, I certainly didn't imagine THAT (horrible thing that happened)!" we protest.

No, but we acquiesce.  We accept the natural order: childhood cancer, the horrors of war, "fate," rape, not having enough. Acquiescence to what might happen is our acceptance of others' imagination.

Joshua was in an important battle, and the natural order of things was that the sun would set and everyone would return to camp to regroup. The sun itself is important in illustration; it is symbolic of God's order over the whole earth. We are talking top order here.

The Word was in Joshua's mouth. Do I acquiesce to the natural order? Hell no. "Sun, stand still!" And the sun stood still in the sky until the battle was over.

YOU do not have to be the one imagining for things to happen to you. You need only imagine ACQUIESCENCE to them, cooperating as it were with the natural order.

JOHN Osteen had a wonderful book out many years ago called There is a Miracle in Your Mouth. What YOU want, SAY it! It does not matter what it is; if it is not what you imagine, you do not have to acquiesce to it. Speak your mind. What do YOU imagine?
