The Kingdom is a sound and sight real.

By Stephen Cummings

The Kingdom is a sound and sight real. "But who has stood in the council of the LORD, That he should see and hear His word? Who has given heed to His word and listened?"(Jer. 23:18 NASB)

His thoughts contain all that is necessary to bring forth life. They include the power, the emotion and the will to accomplish what they are set out to do.

We have all learned how thoughts create emotions is us and are largely taught by the church to control our thoughts and thus control our emotions.

This is also the foundation of most of the self-help and the foundation of all “Life Coaching” models used with or without the Holy Spirit.

This is a partial truth, for if we allow His thought then we can have His emotions, His truth and His will.

When we have His thoughts we can take other thoughts captive to the obedience of those thoughts.

Imagine, we are like a tuning fork, right now we vibrate with all that is going on around us and we vibrate from the thoughts we have.

As God brings us closer to himself, and as we submit our body as Romans 12:1-2 shows us, we become a tuning fork He can use.


“Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” (Romans 12:1-2 NIV)

He will teach us how His thoughts can resound in us and that those thoughts create space for Him to come into time and change things.

A simple picture is that intercession includes the birthing of realms.

Imagine His thoughts and feelings in us such that we as a tuning fork vibrate at a different frequency that changes the atmosphere around us.

Lord Jesus, I submit my body to you as my reasonable service for I do want to renew my feelings and understanding, my whole mind and experience the good the acceptable and perfect will you have.

I believe you created me in my mother’s womb and you chose me before the foundations of time and I trust that you know how my body and mind works better than I do.

Forgive me for letting the enemy continually resonate and use me as a tuning fork against myself and against you.

Forgive me for separating sight and sound and choosing which I give preference to.

Lord, please free me from this and baptize me in the fire of your love, baptize me with your fire – the fire that you are in the midst of – the fire you were with Daniel in – the fire which does not burn my skin but awakens my true identity.

Lord, please help me disconnect the tuning fork in me from my soul and connect it to your Spirit.

Let your Spirit be the one who hears all that is going on and responds instead of my soul. Lord, teach me to resonate with the ability to allow you to come in and sup with me. Not my will but yours be done... Come and save me.
