“He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end” (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
The scripture above can also be rendered thus: “…also he hath set eternity in their heart….” God has set eternity in your heart (spirit), meaning that there’s no limit to the extent and reach of what you can possess by faith! You have the capacity to contain eternity itself in your spirit.
This was how Abraham became the possessor of the whole earth. When the Lord said to him, “Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever” (Genesis 13:14-15), he knew that the Lord wasn’t talking about physical lands. By faith, he saw the whole world with his spiritual eyes and once he was able to see it, God said “it’s yours!” (Romans 4:13). This was his Certificate of Ownership of Planet earth!
Start practicing how to see and take possession from your spirit, for that’s where God guides you from. He doesn’t function in the realm of the mind or senses. With your faith, you can take businesses, corporations, cities, nations and ultimately the whole world with the gospel! You can open the doors of every nation to the influence of the gospel of Jesus Christ! The things you see with your eyes of faith, and take possession of in the realm of the spirit become realities as you speak them forth.
Remember that your spirit has the capacity to contain God! If eternity can dwell in your heart, much less the whole world! Learn to release yourself to the Holy Spirit and allow your faith soar, and the whole world will become your field of operation.
Confession
Just like Abraham the father of faith, I see with my eyes of faith and take possession in the realm of the spirit! The whole world is mine. Opportunities abound for me in every nation of the world to preach the gospel of Christ’s salvation. My faith is soaring and prevailing; and I declare that the whole world is mine! Hallelujah.

Romans 4:16-18 “Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, [17] (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. [18] Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
