TOPIC: Stop Seeing The Wrong Picture (TREM Devotional 2 December 2025)
“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. Moreover, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree.” — Jeremiah 1:10-11 (KJV)
MESSAGE
God revealed to Jeremiah the authority He had placed upon him.
He said, “I have set you over the nations and kingdoms to uproot, to tear down, to destroy, to throw down, to build, and to plant.”
Then God asked, “Jeremiah, what do you see?”
And Jeremiah responded, “I see a rod of an almond tree.”
Beloved, this is a powerful picture of authority. Just as Jeremiah saw himself as a man of divine authority, you too have authority over your life and circumstances. The picture you hold in your mind is critical because it aligns with the Word of God. What you see in your imagination influences what comes to pass in reality.
God affirmed Jeremiah’s vision: “Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.” — Jeremiah 1:12 (KJV). In other words, God will accelerate His Word to fulfill it. He will push it forward, ensuring that it comes to pass.
Sometimes, prophetic words tarry in your life because the wrong picture has been captured in your mind. The Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, cannot align with falsehood. When you see clearly and agree with God’s truth, all things work together for your good, and the Word spoken over you is established.
The picture you hold determines what you believe and ultimately what is manifested.
