We Think in Pictures: How You See Yourself in Your Mind is What You Get
We think in pictures in our minds. Our imagination, according to the dictionary, is our ability to picture something that is not real or present yet. In other words, we can picture something that isn't real yet, something that hasn't come to pass yet. So, what is conception? Other than the process of becoming pregnant involving fertilization, a second answer for conception is the capacity, function, or process of forming or understanding an idea or abstraction, or symbol. Conception is the total purpose of our imagination. It is where we can see things.
People pray for healing and ask God to heal them, but they aren't conceiving healing in their minds. We can take the scripture 1 Peter 2:24, "By his stripes we were healed," and take that seed, that incorruptible firm of the word of God, and put it in our minds. We can conceive a miracle in our minds through our imagination. We need to take the word of God and not just be able to quote it; anybody can do that. We need to see it in our minds, see the scripture in our minds, and see the picture of what we want in our minds.
