The Purpose & Power Of Writing: Activating Your Creative Ability
Study The Word
Jeremiah 30:1 – 3
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, 2 Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. 3 For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
Child of God, you need to understand and accept the truth and reality that we are created in the image and likeness of Almighty God. This profound truth means we possess the inherent capacity to do the same things He did when He created the world. Even more importantly, He expects us to do the same thing! This is the core of the very essence of the spirituality of writing and why it produces results for us. So, it is imperative that you participate in the principles we are sharing in this series. You have to create and design your life in the same meticulous way that God designed the universe.
Writing is not just transcription for literacy’s sake; writing is the direct expression of your divine creative ability. When you pick up a pen and put thoughts to paper, you are actively activating your creative ability, and your creative ability is directly linked to your imaginative ability. This means your ability to imagine and envision is activated and expressed outwardly through your active engagement with writing. That’s precisely how you create; that is how you practically activate your ability to create. You now have the same ability to do it exactly like God does. What God did when He created the whole world becomes a fundamental principle, a spiritual law that works without fail, that you use to beautify your life. Anyone who puts it to work will inevitably get a result. So, do not just continue to go on day by day, taking everything as it comes. That is not the kind of life God gave you to live. Your life is different; you are called to function like God.
Think about it logically: anything that exists physically in this world first existed in someone’s mind. It started as an idea, a concept, an image. But if it stays only in the mind, nobody knows it, nobody has seen it, nobody can recreate it, and it will never materialize. You can have the most beautiful, groundbreaking car design in your mind, but if you keep it there, confined to your thoughts, you will never experience it, it will never be manufactured, and it will never be driven. It will never be made until you take a pen and paper and start to draw it, detail by meticulous detail. That’s how you transfer it from the invisible realm of your mind onto the tangible realm of paper.
And when you intentionally begin to practice this principle with the intent to exercise and harness the power and purpose of writing, everything that has to do with you creating will begin to come together day by day. This is no longer you just writing to fill out a questionnaire; this is you now consciously unleashing the power and creative force of writing in the capacity and purpose realms that God uses writing for. This is a different level of writing.
This is writing with divine purpose, unleashing divine power; it is spiritual writing that unleashes supernatural power and ability. And what you need to do going forward is to tap in and begin to practice this form of writing consciously. I know you’ve been writing for most of your life, but that was for a different, lesser use and purpose. This time, it’s going to be for divine purpose, unleashing divine creative power; and so now you can expect supernatural results.
Without this deliberate, elevated purpose and process of writing to express and unleash your creative ability like God for the life you want to live and the purpose God wants you to fulfill, you are simply not going to live it. If you want to ensure you actually live and experience the desires of your heart and the vision, calling, and purposeful, successful life that God has given you, you must start immediately creating at this level. Design and activate this divine power that is in you by writing. It might sound foolish to some, even to you; it might even feel cumbersome or unnecessary in the moment, but I urge you, just do it. And once you’ve written it, don’t lose that writing. Keep it somewhere safe and accessible.
Every single day, when you wake up, you need to know exactly where you are going. You need to know the plan, the vision, the precise direction for your life. And you begin to rehearse it—rehearse it to yourself day and night. Your life cannot simply go by without you actively working toward that detailed plan you’ve meticulously created, transferred from the creative realm into written form. This is even how you know you’re making tangible progress as time goes by; that’s how your life actually changes and transforms. I’ve been practicing this so much that sometimes I lose track of some of the things I created for my life using this principle, such that as things unravel and begin to come to pass, it’s like I experience these déjà vu moments and I’m like, “Wait a minute.” I go over all my writings and I’m like, “Aaaah, this is where I know this from, haha.” If you’re just living day to day, with no design direction, just seeing what today brings, trust me, nothing significant is going to happen. You must have this created design of your life in writing. This unwavering clarity, this detailed blueprint, is the absolute beginning of your life of purposeful success.
Pray The Word
Heavenly Father, I thank You for entrusting me with Your divine creative ability and for revealing this powerful spiritual principle of writing. I pray for the wisdom, discipline, and consistent inspiration to express this divine ability to write and create glorious things not only for my benefit, but for the benefit of Your kingdom and also the blessing of man. Thank you Father for this increase in grace of this knowledge of how to activate my imagination and unleashing my creative power in accordance and in alignment with Your Word, in Jesus name.
Speak The Word
I do not neglect the divine creative ability that God has entrusted me with. I activate my creative ability and channel my life towards my divine destiny and purpose in Christ Jesus. I will not live a life without direction; I am designing my life with divine purpose, precision, and clarity, seeing it manifest day by day as it blesses me and everyone in the world around me!
