“Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” Hebrews 11:3
When we think of a picture frame, we usually think of the large frames we’ve seen in museums. Some are beautifully carved wood; some are finished in different metals like gold, brass or silver. Regardless of what they’re made of, they serve several purposes. There is actually a specialized skillset involved in choosing the right frames for artwork. That’s because frames do more than just border a picture. They add dimension. They capture a certain tone, bring out the colors of a picture. They enhance and compliment the work and add a unique elegance.
The Bible says that God framed the worlds that He created by the Word of God. The word framed is the Greek Word katartizo. It means to complete or join together perfectly. God sent His Word to us, because His desire was to complete us in such a way that we would be joined with Him, completed by Him, and enjoy a fulfilled life in Him, as our Father.
When we begin to walk in God’s Word by being a DOER of the Word (James 1;22), we enjoy a strong connection with God and experience a wonderful sense of completeness. When we speak His Word into our lives, we are inviting God to complete whatever is lacking in our lives because our words are being perfectly joined together with His Will for our lives…!
If your world seems empty or lacks a sense of completeness; if you desire God to bring new dimensions of joy and peace into your life; if you want to portray the elegance of God’s life and nature in you, then begin to frame your world with His Word. Instead of settling for the value systems of this world, which always leave us feeling empty and wanting more, start speaking what God says about you. Those are the scriptures that He sent to complete you, to enhance your life, to capture the tone of what He created you for, and all He wants to say to this world through your life, and in the elegance that witnesses to God’s unmistakable work in you!
Frame your world with His Word and the wonderful blessings, attributes and provisions you haven’t yet seen in your life will begin to appear!
With Love,
