Only Believe!
Evangelist Jackie Burton talked to us a while back about “Believe”, but God kept laying in my spirit “Only Believe”. I wrote down the word believe, and the Holy Spirit gave this meaning. I am giving it to you as He gave it to me.
The word believe means to accept or regard something as true; to accept truth of what is said by someone. We know who truth is:
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life.
Let’s take another look at the word believe:
Be-lie means to give a false idea of something or to show something to be false or wrong; unbelief. It comes from Satan, the serpent, the dragon, the devil. He has many names, but he is still an enemy and still under our feet.
Be-live means by life, i.e. with liveliness.
Be - used to indicate the identity of a person; used to describe the qualities of a person; to indicate the condition of a person.
Live - be alive; continue to be alive; have a home in a specified place.
I wrote down the word “heaven” because heaven and hell are just what we make it. God wants to put us into the “heavenly” (which means abode or the dwelling of God; higher elevation) with God.
Ephesians 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
We have been taught that heaven is up yonder, but it is right here. Just like hell is right here. If we are in misery and allowing the enemy to take over our lives, we are in hell.
