The Album
With one click of the camera we take a picture and create a lasting image we place in an album. With enough snaps of the tongue we create permanent images in the minds of ourselves or our children. These snap shots stored in the mind determine our life style, our reality.
Ben’s parents called him stupid so many times growing up, he pictured himself stupid and because that was the faith he had and we get what we have fait for, it was difficult for him to learn. Because we cannot achieve any higher goals than what we believe, he ended up with little education and a life of struggling to make a living.
Sam’s parents told him that he was the greatest and smartest kid in the world. His imagination was filled with positive snap shots. He succeeded at everything.
“Every year I get the flu,” you say. You’re right. Our words are a creative force and you will get what you say. Expect the flu this year and say it enough times and you can plan on having it next year too.
Proverbs 18;21 KJV Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Elvis Presley said his mother died at an early age and he would, too. He got what he spoke and believed and died at the same age as his mother.
“Every time we get a little money saved the kids get sick or the car breaks down.” Oh yes, your tongues have snapped this statement so many tim this will be your reality. Expect the worst and you can be sure you will get the worst.
Mark 11:23KJV “For verily I say unto you that whosoever shall say unto this mountain. Be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.”
Look how many times saith is used. What you say and what you believe will come to pass.
This works in the negative as well as the positive. God created the world by speaking words. We create our reality the same way.
Science calls this the Law of Attraction. Some call it Quantum Physics What we say and believe will come to us because our belief and words draw it to us like a magnet. It is a scientific law and a spiritual law.
Do you really want all of the negative things you are speaking? Thank God we can change our reality. Snap some new pictures and visions of what you want, stop saying what you have and change that picture album that is in your mind. Change sickness to health, poverty to wealth, weakness to strength and believe that you can do all things. How do you do it?
Call them into existence.
Romans 4: 17KJV (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
Call things that be not as though they are. This is what you have been doing anyway. Some believed and said, their family has always been poor so they expect to be poor also as though somehow they are cursed. Poverty is what they are creating for themselves with their faith. Faith is energy and a substance. With it we create the things we have faith for. It does not take any more faith to believe for riches than it does for lack. Your tongue can snap out the words, “I can do all things and nothing is impossible with me.” It takes just as much effort to say, “I wish I had your talents but I could never do that.”
If we want good things in our lives then we must use our faith and our words to bring into manifestation the things we long for. We can pray for God to do things for us but he has designed laws so we can do things for ourselves.
Snap new pictures and visions and change your life.

I had to laugh at this, "Expect the flu this year and say it enough times and you can plan on having it next year too." This is a very interesting message. I've never considered these thoughts before, Thank you.

I think the Lord has inspired you to write this to help those like me who speak negativity into existence all the time. The Elvis Presley example is a powerful one. I hope to heed your call and always speak positivity into my existence and that of others. Not only good job, but good work.

I have written on this many times. Did you know that in James 3:6 when it talks about the tongue being the unruly member that: setteth on fire the course of nature, that this is the meaning: [φλογίζω τροχός γένεσις/Ignites the physical effects in a genesis or nativity]. In other words it is a birthing or creating. People do not realize that we are all speaking spirits and that while a thought is just potetial energy when spoken becomes working energy producing a manifestation. GOOD WORK!
