Should Christians “Manifest”? | Biblical Declarations Explained (Kate Orson Interview)

Описание: Many Christians are hearing phrases like “speak it into existence” or “your words create your reality”, but is that the same thing as biblical declarations?

In this Daily Bible Declarations conversation, I’m joined by Kate Orson (a UK writer based in Italy), who became a Christian in 2021 after 20 years in the New Age. We explore the difference between modern “manifesting” culture and speaking Scripture in a Christ-centred, Bible-rooted, and truth-grounded way.

In this episode, we discuss:
How The Secret shaped popular manifesting ideas.
“spiritual language” vs spiritual truth (and how Kate encountered God through The Lord’s Prayer).
Why manifesting can become a form of control rather than surrender.
the core difference: manifesting imagines what isn’t true yet, but biblical declarations agree with what God has said is true.
practical guidance for goal-setting with God (without striving, superstition, or pressure).
simple steps if your faith has been mixed with New Age ideas: fast social media, return to Scripture, pray the Psalms, and stay in Christian community.
