On a recent trip to the United Kingdom, we took trains to and from London to Norwich and Wales. I also took the train to Gatwick Airport to fly to Scotland for a ministry appointment. We utilized the London underground for most of our travel across the city. On each of the trains we heard the following announcement at each station. “If you see something that doesn’t feel right, speak to staff or text the British Transport Police, we will sort it. See it, Say it, Sorted.” This is the British safety campaign to help keep the travelers safe on the trains. The details of the campaign are as follows:
· We’re asking rail passengers and people who use railway stations to help keep themselves and others safe by reporting unusual items or activity on the railway.
· We’ve all got a role to play in keeping the rail network safe, and we rely on you to be our eyes and ears.
We heard the phrase “see it, say it, sorted” numerous times while we traveled to minister throughout the United Kingdom.
Faith has a voice. Faith is activated through our words. We give expression to our faith when we speak. We need to learn to speak the Word of God over every circumstance we face. We must learn to boldly speak our faith. We need to declare God’s Word over every circumstance we face. James 1:12 says, “Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”
In Hebrews 4:16 we are encouraged to come boldly to the throne of grace. “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” How do we make a declaration of faith? We make a profession of God’s word. When the enemy engages us in battle we go to the Scriptures and find out what God instructs us to do in His Word.
The enemy comes with accusation and lies, but we stand our ground against Him in the name of the Lord. Luke 10:19 says, “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Power is released when we speak the name of Jesus.
Hebrews 10:23 says, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” Our testimony is a declaration of the Word. Start praying the Word of God into your present circumstances. The believer who learns the discipline of praying the Scriptures will be introduced to a new power and a greater understanding of their inheritance in Christ. We see it, say it, God sorts it.
