When it comes to framing or co-creating, the key is aligning yourself with God’s heart and purpose. This is not something you can do by your own strength or for your own ends; it must be rooted in God’s intentions. Intimacy with the Father is essential. Understanding the Father’s heart—whether through personal direction or what you might call a ‘heart-to-heart’ infusion—enables you to align yourself with His will. Once you know you are in sync with God’s heart, you can then begin to frame your life accordingly.
Framing your life involves nurturing or ‘brooding’ over what you want to bring into existence. Just as a hen sits on her eggs until they hatch, you must incubate your intentions. If you are double-minded, it will not work. You are effectively creating a reality where light and the enabling power of God respond to your expectations, collapsing a wave function to bring that reality into being. It is crucial that you observe and speak as though this reality has already occurred. As God calls things into existence, so too must you align your words and authority with His, speaking with conviction and faith.
Brooding
The process of framing often starts with God’s promises. If you are seeking first the Kingdom, you can confidently expect those promises to be fulfilled. This means framing your life around expectation, calling forth God’s protection, provision, and direction for each day. You are not merely wishing for things; you are living from the expectation that you will have everything you need, with an abundance for every good work.
This framing process creates an atmosphere around your life that draws in the reality of God’s promises. However, it cannot be done out of anxiety, fear, or worry. You must be in a state of rest, characterised by contentment, peace, and joy, with an attitude of thanksgiving and gratitude. Even before you receive what you are calling into existence, you must live as if it is already yours. Gratitude and thanksgiving are vital components of this process because they reinforce your faith that what you are framing is already a reality.
Speaking with Authority
When co-creating, whether calling forth new realities or framing promises around your life, you need clarity. You cannot randomly decide to create something—like calling 15 angels into being—without knowing that you have permission to do so. As a son of God, once you know you have that permission, you can call things into existence that did not previously exist. For example, I have created guardians after receiving permission from the Father, brooding over the intention until I knew it was aligned with God’s heart. Once I had that assurance, I spoke with the voice of God and the guardians manifested. There was no doubt or double-mindedness, just a clear understanding that I was acting with God’s authority.
Intimacy and Rest
Framing your life around God’s promises begins with intimacy and rest. Jesus only did what He saw the Father doing, and we are called to operate in the same way. This is not about manipulation or control; it is about aligning your life with God’s purposes and seeking to bless others. You cannot use this process to manipulate people or situations to your advantage. Instead, you can call forth opportunities to bless others or to meet people you can help. It is a process rooted in love, aimed at bringing out the best for yourself and others.
Expect that there will be a process involved. Jesus said that when you pray, believe you have received, and you will receive. This means living in an attitude of thanksgiving, gratitude, and contentment, trusting that what you are framing will manifest in time. Some things may happen instantly, while others may take longer. It is important to avoid negative thoughts or speech that could undermine what you are working towards. Stay positive, remain at rest, and keep your focus on your intimacy with the Father.
Ultimately, you can frame your life according to your destiny and identity as a son of God. This involves calling forth the wisdom, insight, resources, and everything else you need to fulfil your God-given purpose. By framing your life in this way, you can live with the expectation that everything necessary for your journey will be available to you.
