Israel, in the Old Testament, was called to obey the
law. But as Christians, we’re called to do the Word,
we practise the Word. It’s called the “mirror principle.” The
Word of God is a mirror, and anyone who hears the Word
and doesn’t do it, (notice He didn’t say “and doesn’t obey it”),
it’s like a man who sees himself in a mirror and when he turns
away, forgets who he is. Which means the one who does the
Word is the one who looks at himself in the mirror and
remembers his identity.
God’s Word says, “You’re the righteousness of God in
Christ Jesus”; your response, therefore, should be, “Yes, that’s
who I am! I’m the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.” That’s
what God’s mirror shows you to be. When you turn from that
mirror, keep the picture in your mind, and keep saying what
the Word says. The necessary result is that you will live as the
righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
The same principle applies to your health; the doctor
may have looked into your body, and seen a mass, diagnosing
it to be cancerous. They turned on the wrong light. They’re
seeing the wrong reflection, because they’re using the wrong
mirror. The Word of God is the mirror of God, and it’s also

the true light. It reveals the truth of who you are, what you
have, and all that you can do in Christ.
Therefore, refuse to use the wrong light to assess your
body or situation. Use the Word; the mirror of God. That
mirror shows that you’re perfected in Christ, and that you’re
the glory of God. The mirror shows that you can do all things
through Christ, and no weapon fashioned against you shall
prosper. The mirror shows that you’re eternally triumphant,
and can never be disadvantaged.
Examine your life, and your situation with God’s Word
only; accept only the image and reflection of you that God’s
mirror shows you.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I live in, and by, the
truth of your Word; thereby,
setting myself up for an eternal
journey of glory, success, victory,
and prosperity. Your Word
produces in me the fruit of what
it talks about; causing the
circumstances of my life to align
with your will, purpose and
destiny for me, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.
