FAITH EXAMPLE:

FAITH

AS IT IS WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK OF THE COVENANT

(2 KINGS 23:21)

=================================

HEBREWS 11:6

WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD, BECAUSE ANYONE WHO COMES TO HIM MUST BELIEVE THAT HE EXISTS AND THAT HE REWARDS THOSE WHO DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM.

HEBREWS 11:1

FAITH IS BEING SURE OF WHAT WE HOPE FOR AND CERTAIN OF WHAT WE DO NOT SEE.FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR, THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN.ISAIAH 6:13:...SO THE HOLY SEED SHALL BE THE SUBSTANCE THEREOF. THE SEED IS THE WORD OF GOD. IMPERISHABLE SEED THAT CANNOT RETURN VOID.SPIRITUAL CONCEPTION, SUBSTANCE, SEED.

2 COR 5:7

WE LIVE BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT.

1 COR 13:12

FOR NOW WE SEE THROUGH A GLASS, DARKLY, BUT THEN FACE TO FACE:NOW I KNOW IN PART, BUT THEN SHALL I KNOW EVEN AS ALSO I AM KNOWN.

HEBREWS 12:21

I FIX MY EYES (SIGHT) ON JESUS, THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF MY FAITH.

ROMANS 1:17

BY FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, JUST AS IT IS WRITTEN, THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH.

GAL 2:20

I LIVE BY FAITH IN THE SON OF GOD.

ROMANS 4:17

GOD, WHO QUICKENETH THE DEAD, AND CALLETH THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE.

2 COR 4:13

AS IT IS WRITTEN:‘I BELIEVED THEREFORE I HAVE SPOKEN’.WITH THAT SAME SPIRIT OF FAITH WE ALSO BELIEVE AND THEREFORE SPEAK.

2 COR 4:18

SO WE FIX OUR EYES NOT ON WHAT IS SEEN, BUT ON WHAT IS UNSEEN.FOR WHAT IS SEEN IS TEMPORARY, BUT WHAT IS UNSEEN IS ETERNAL.

(WHAT IS SEEN IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE).

HEBREWS 11:3

BY FAITH WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE UNIVERSE WAS FORMED AT GOD’S COMMAND, SO THAT WHAT IS SEEN WAS NOT MADE OUT OF WHAT WAS VISIBLE.

MARK 11:22-25

‘HAVE THE FAITH OF GOD’ JESUS ANSWERED.I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IF ANYONE SAYS TO THIS MOUNTAIN, ‘GO, THROW YOURSELF INTO THE SEA’ AND DOES NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, BUT BELIEVES THAT WHAT HE SAYS WILL HAPPEN, IT WILL BE DONE FOR HIM. THEREFORE I TELL YOU, WHATEVER YOU ASK FOR IN PRAYER, BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED IT, AND IT WILL BE YOURS.

MATT 9:29

ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH WILL IT BE DONE UNTO YOU.

MATT 17:20

BECAUSE YOU HAVE SO LITTLE FAITH.I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IF YOU HAVE FAITH AS SMALL AS A MUSTARD SEED, YOU CAN SAY TO THIS MOUNTAIN, ‘MOVE FROM HERE TO THERE’ AND IT WILL MOVE.NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU.

LUKE 8:11

NOW THE PARABLE IS THIS: THE SEED IS THE WORD OF GOD.

HEBREWS 11:1

FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR, THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN.

ROMANS 10:17

FAITH COMES FROM HEARING (AND HEARING…AND HEARING…..) THE MESSAGE AND THE MESSAGE IS HEARD THROUGH THE WORD OF CHRIST.

1 THESS 2:13

ACCEPT IT NOT AS THE WORD OF MEN, BUT AS IT ACTUALLY IS, THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH IS AT WORK IN YOU WHO BELIEVE.

1 PETER 1:23

(THE WORD OF GOD IS IMPERISHABLE SEED).

FOR YOU HAVE BEEN BORN AGAIN, NOT OF PERISHABLE SEED, BUT OF IMPERISHABLE, THROUGH THE LIVING AND ENDURING WORD OF GOD.

ISAIAH 55:

SO IS THE WORD THAT GOES OUT FROM MY MOUTH; IT WILL NOT RETURN TO ME EMPTY, BUT WILL ACCOMPLISH WHAT I DESIRE AND ACHIEVE THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH I SENT IT….THIS WILL BE FOR THE LORD’S RENOWN, AN EVERLASTING SIGN, WHICH WILL NOT BE DESTROYED.

HEBREWS 10:19-23

THEREFORE, BROTHERS, SINCE WE HAVE CONFIDENCE TO ENTER THE MOST HOLY PLACE BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS, BY A NEW AND LIVING WAY OPENED FOR US THROUGH THE CURTAIN, THAT IS, HIS BODY, AND SINCE WE HAVE A GREAT HIGH PRIEST OVER THE HOUSE OF GOD, LET US DRAW NEAR TO GOD WITH A SINCERE HEART IN FULL ASSURANCE OF FAITH, HAVING OUR HEARTS SPRINKLED TO CLEANSE US FROM A GUILTY CONSCIENCE AND HAVING OUR BODIES WASHED WITH PURE WATER.LET US HOLD UNSWERVINGLY TO THE HOPE WE PROFESS, FOR HE WHO PROMISED IS FAITHFUL.

2 COR 1:20

FOR NO MATTER HOW MANY PROMISES GOD HAS MADE, THEY ARE ‘YES’ IN CHRIST.AND SO THROUGH HIM THE ‘AMEN’ IS SPOKEN BY US TO THE GLORY OF GOD.

MARK 5:36

DON’T BE AFRAID.JUST BELIEVE.

JOHN 20:27-29

THEN HE SAID TO THOMAS, ‘PUT YOUR FINGER HERE; SEE MY HANDS.REACH OUT YOUR HAND AND PUT IT INTO MY SIDE.STOP DOUBTING AND BELIEVE.THOMAS ANSWERED, ‘MY LORD AND MY GOD!’THEN JESUS TOLD HIM, ‘BECAUSE YOU HAVE SEEN ME, YOU HAVE BELIEVED; BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN AND YET HAVE BELIEVED’.

GALATIANS 3:2-5

DID YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT BY OBSERVING THE LAW OR BY BELIEVING WHAT YOU HEARD?ARE YOU SO FOOLISH?AFTER BEGINNING WITH THE SPIRIT, ARE YOU NOW TRYING TO OBTAIN YOUR GOAL THROUGH HUMAN EFFORT? … DOES GOD GIVE YOU HIS SPIRIT AND WORK MIRACLES AMONG YOU BECAUSE YOU OBSERVE THE LAW, OR BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE WHAT YOU HEARD?

ROMANS 8:14

THOSE WHO ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD ARE SONS OF GOD.

1 JOHN 2:27

THE ANOINTING YOU RECEIVED FROM HIM REMAINS IN YOU, AND YOU DO NOT NEED ANYONE TEACH YOU.BUT AS HIS ANOINTING TEACHES YOU ABOUT ALL THINGS AND AS THAT ANOINTING IS REAL – NOT COUNTERFEIT – JUST AS IT HAS TAUGHT YOU, REMAIN IN HIM.

GAL 5:25

SINCE WE LIVE BY THE SPIRIT, LET US KEEP IN STEP WITH THE SPIRIT.

LAMENTATIONS 3:37

WHO CAN SPEAK AND HAVE IT HAPPEN IF THE LORD HAS NOT DECREED IT?

ZEC 4:6

THIS IS THE WORD OF THE LORD TO ZERUBBABEL (YOU).NOT BY MIGHT, NOR BY POWER, BUT BY MY SPIRIT, SAYS THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY. WHAT ARE YOU, O MIGHTY MOUNTAIN? BEFORE ME YOU WILL BECOME LEVEL GROUND.THEN HE WILL BRING OUT THE CAPSTONE (CORNERSTONE JESUS CHRIST THE WORD OF GOD) TO SHOUTS OF ‘GOD BLESS IT!GOD BLESS IT!’

1 JOHN 5:4-6

EVERYONE BORN OF GOD OVERCOMES THE WORLD. THIS IS THE VICTORY THAT HAS OVERCOME THE WORLD, EVEN OUR FAITH.WHO IS IT THAT OVERCOMES THE WORLD?ONLY HE WHO BELIEVES THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD.

THIS IS THE ONE WHO CAME BY WATER AND BLOOD – JESUS CHRIST. HE DID NOT COME BY WATER ONLY, BUT BY WATER AND BLOOD.AND IT IS THE SPIRIT WHO TESTIFIES, BECAUSE THE SPIRIT IS THE TRUTH. FOR THERE ARE THREE THAT TESTIFY: THE SPIRIT, THE WATER AND THE BLOOD (ie. THE WORD OF GOD); AND THE THREE ARE IN AGREEMENT.

JOHN 12:50

JESUS SAID: FOR I DID NOT SPEAK OF MY OWN ACCORD, BUT THE FATHER WHO SENT ME COMMANDED ME WHAT TO SAY AND HOW TO SAY IT.I KNOW HIS COMMAND LEADS TO ETERNAL LIFE.SO WHATEVER I SAY IS JUST WHAT THE FATHER HAS TOLD ME TO SAY.

JOHN 14:31

JESUS SAID: THE WORLD MUST LEARN THAT I LOVE THE FATHER AND THAT I DO EXACTLY WHAT MY FATHER HAS COMMANDED ME.

JOHN 3:34

FOR THE ONE WHOM GOD HAS SENT SPEAKS THE WORDS OF GOD; TO HIM GOD GIVES THE SPIRIT WITHOUT LIMIT.

ROMANS 3:3-4

WHAT ADVANTAGE IS THERE IN BEING A JEW?OR WHAT VALUE IS THERE IN CIRCUMCISION (COVENANT)?MUCH IN EVERY WAY!FIRST OF ALL, THEY HAVE BEEN ENTRUSTED WITH THE VERY WORDS OF GOD.WHAT IF SOME DID NOT HAVE FAITH?WILL THEIR LACK OF FAITH NULLIFY GOD’S FAITHFULNESS? NOT AT ALL.LET GOD BE TRUE AND EVERY MAN A LIAR.AS IT IS WRITTEN, SO THAT YOU MAY BE PROVED RIGHT WHEN YOU SPEAK AND PREVAIL WHEN YOU JUDGE.

1 TIM 1:18-19

I GIVE YOU THIS INSTRUCTION IN KEEPING WITH THE PROPHECIES ONCE MADE ABOUT YOU, SO THAT BY FOLLOWING THEM YOU MAY FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT, HOLDING ON TO FAITHAND A GOOD CONSCIENCE.SOME HAVE REJECTED THESE AND SO HAVE SHIPWRECKED THEIR FAITH.

1 THESS 5:19-20

DO NOT PUT OUT THE SPIRIT’S FIRE; DO NOT TREAT PROPHECIES WITH CONTEMPT.

ROM 10:9-10

WE BELIEVE IN OUR HEARTS AND CONFESS WITH OUR MOUTHS

REVELATION 19:10

WORSHIP GOD! FOR THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS IS THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.

HABAKKUK 2:2-3

WRITE DOWN THE REVELATION AND MAKE IT PLAIN ON TABLETS (PAPER) SO THAT WHOEVER READS IT MAY RUN WITH IT.FOR THE REVELATION AWAITS AN APPOINTED TIME; IT SPEAKS OF THE END AND WILL NOT PROVE FALSE.THOUGH IT LINGER, WAIT FOR IT; IT WILL CERTAINLY COME AND WILL NOT DELAY.

REV 21:5-6

HE WHO WAS SEATED ON THE THRONE SAID, ‘I AM MAKING EVERYTHING NEW!’THEN HE SAID, ‘WRITE THIS DOWN, FOR THESE WORDS ARE TRUSTWORTHY AND TRUE’.HE SAID TO ME: ‘IT IS DONE.I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND THE END.(WHEN YOU HAVE THE ALPHA/BEGINNING WORD, YOU ALREADY HAVE THE OMEGA/ENDING WORD).

HEBREWS 12:21

KEEPING OUR EYES (SIGHT) ON JESUS, THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF OUR FAITH.

ISAIAH 25:1

IN PERFECT FAITHFULNESS GOD (DOES) MARVELLOUS THINGS.

PS 57:10

HIS LOVE REACHES TO THE HEAVENS

HIS FAITHFULNESS TO THE SKIES

MATT 16:17-19

‘BLESSED ARE YOU (YOUR NAME) FOR THIS WAS NOT REVEALED TO YOU BY MAN, BUT BY MY FATHER IN HEAVEN.… AND ON THIS ROCK (KEY OF REVEALATION KNOWLEDGE) I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH, AND THE GATES OF HELL WILL NOT OVERCOME IT.I WILL GIVE YOU THE KEYS OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN; WHATEVER YOU BIND ON EARTH WILL BE BOUND IN HEAVEN, AND WHATEVER YOU LOOSE ON EARTH WILL BE LOOSED IN HEAVEN.’

EPHESIANS 6:12-

FOR OUR STRUGGLE IS NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, BUT AGAINST THE RULERS, THE AUTHORITIES, AGAINST THE POWERS OF THIS DARK WORLD AND AGAINST THE SPIRITUAL FORCES OF EVIL IN THE HEAVENLY REALMS.THEREFORE PUT ON THE FULL ARMOUR OF GOD, SO THAT WHEN THE DAY OF EVIL COMES, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO STAND YOUR GROUND, AND AFTER YOU HAVE DONE EVERYTHING, TO STAND.

STAND FIRM THEN, WITH THE BELT OF TRUTH BUCKLED AROUND YOUR WAIST, WITH THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN PLACE AND WITH YOUR FEET FITTED WITH THE READINESS THAT COMES FROM THE GOSPEL OF PEACE. TAKE UP THE SHIELD OF FAITH, WITH WHICH YOU CAN EXTINGUISH ALL THE FLAMING ARROWS OF THE EVIL ONE.TAKE THE HELMET OF SALVATION (MIND OF CHRIST) AND THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD. AND PRAY IN THE SPIRIT ON ALL OCCASIONS WITH ALL KINDS OF PRAYERS AND REQUESTS.

2 COR 1:24

IT IS BY FAITH THAT YOU STAND FIRM.

ISA 8:10

TAKE COUNSEL TOGETHER, AND IT SHALL COME TO NOUGHT; SPEAK THE WORD, AND IT SHALL NOT STAND: FOR GOD IS WITH US.

1COR 2:5

THAT YOUR FAITH SHOULD NOT STAND IN THE WISDOM OF MEN, BUT IN THE POWER OF GOD.

ROM 14:23

ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT COME FROM FAITH IS SIN.

JAMES 1:2

CONSIDER IT PURE JOY, MY BROTHERS, WHENEVER YOU FACE TRIALS OF MANY KINDS, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT THE TESTING OF YOUR FAITH DEVELOPS PERSEVERANCE.PERSEVERANCE MUST FINISH ITS WORK SO THAT YOU MAY BE MATURE AND COMPLETE, NOT LACKING ANYTHING.

1 TIM 6:12

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH.

2 TIMOTHY 1:7

FOR GOD DID NOT GIVE US A SPIRIT OF TIMIDITY, BUT A SPIRIT OF POWER OF LOVE AND OF SELF DISCIPLINE (WISDOM OF GOD).

ACTS 4:31

LET ME BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND SPEAK THE WORD OF GOD BOLDLY.

GALATIANS 5:6

THE ONLY THING THAT COUNTS IS FAITH EXPRESSING ITSELF THROUGH LOVE.

EPH 4:15

FAITH WORKS BY LOVE.

1 COR 13:2

IF I HAVE FAITH THAT CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS, BUT HAVE NOT LOVE, I AM NOTHING.

1 THESS 5:8

PUT ON FAITH AND LOVE AS A BREASTPLATE.

JUDE 20-21

BUILD YOURSELVES UP IN YOUR MOST HOLY FAITH, PRAYING IN TONGUES.

JAMES 2:22

FAITH AND ACTIONS WORK TOGETHER.

JAMES 2:14

WHAT GOOD IS IT, MY BROTHERS, IF A MAN CLAIMS TO HAVE FAITH BUT HAS NO DEEDS?

JAMES 2:26

AS THE BODY WITHOUT THE SPIRIT IS DEAD, SO FAITH WITHOUT DEEDS IS DEAD.

MARK 16:17-18

AND THESE SIGNS WILL FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE:

IN MY NAME THEY WILL DRIVE OUT DEMONS;

THEY WILL SPEAK IN NEW TONGUES;

THEY WILL PICK UP SNAKES WITH THEIR HANDS;

AND WHEN THEY DRINK DEADLY POISON, IT WILL NOT HURT THEM AT ALL;

THEY WILL PLACE THEIR HANDS ON SICK PEOPLE, AND THEY WILL GET WELL.

JAMES 5:14-16

IS ANYONE OF YOU SICK?HE SHOULD CALL ON THE ELDERS OF THE CHURCH TO PRAY OVER HIM AND ANOINT HIM WITH OIL IN THE NAME OF THE LORD.AND THE PRAYER OFFERED IN FAITH WILL MAKE THE SICK PERSON WELL; THE LORD WILL RAISE HIM UP.IF HE HAS SINNED, HE WILL BE FORGIVEN.THEREFORE CONFESS YOUR SINS TO EACH OTHER AND PRAY FOR EACH OTHER SO THAT YOU MAY BE HEALED. THE PRAYER OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN IS POWERFUL AND EFFECTIVE.

2 THESS 1:11

WE PRAY THAT GOD MAY COUNT YOU WORTHY OF HIS CALLING, AND THAT BY HIS POWER HE MAY FULFILL… EVERY ACT PROMPTED BY YOUR FAITH.

2 CHRON 19:9

AND HE CHARGED THEM, SAYING, THUS SHALL YE DO IN THE FEAR OF THE LORD, FAITHFULLY, AND WITH A PERFECT HEART.

ROMANS 5:17

FOR IF BY ONE MAN’S OFFENCE, DEATH REIGNED BY ONE; HOW MUCH MORE I WHO RECEIVE ABUNDANCE OF GRACE, AND OF THE GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, SHALL REIGN IN LIFE BY ONE, JESUS CHRIST.

1 COR 3:16-17

DON’T YOU KNOW THAT YOU YOURSELVES ARE GOD’S TEMPLE AND THAT GOD’S SPIRIT LIVES IN YOU.GOD’S TEMPLE IS SACRED AND YOU ARE THAT TEMPLE.

2 COR 6:16

AS GOD HAS SAID, ‘I WILL LIVE WITH THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD AND THEY WILL BE MY PEOPLE’.

MICAH 4:5

All the nations may walk in the name of their gods; WE WILL WALK IN THE NAME OF THE LORD OUR GOD FOR EVER AND EVER (JESUS).

MATT 28:20

AND SURELY HE WILL BE WITH US ALWAYS, TO THE VERY END OF THE AGE.

MARK 16:20

AND WORK WITH US AND CONFIRM HIS WORD BY THE SIGNS THAT ACCOMPANY IT.

ACTS 5:38-39

FOR IF OUR PURPOSE OR ACTIVITY IS OF HUMAN ORIGIN, IT WILL FAIL.BUT IF IT IS FROM GOD, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STOP US, YOU WILL ONLY FIND YOURSELVES FIGHTING AGAINST GOD.

FAITH CONFESSION

JESUS SAID: THE WORLD MUST LEARN THAT I LOVE THE FATHER AND THAT I DO EXACTLY WHAT MY FATHER HAS COMMANDED ME.JOHN 14:31

I DRAW NEAR TO GOD AND HE WILL DRAW NEAR TO ME. (HEB 10:22)

WHERE IS HE THAT SET HIS HOLY SPIRIT AMONG US, WHO SENT HIS GLORIUS ARM OF POWER? (ISAIAH 63:11-12)

HE HAS PUT HIS WORDS IN MY MOUTH AND COVERED ME WITH THE SHADOW OF HIS HAND (ISA 51:16).

HIS HAND IS STRETCHED OUT AND WHO CAN TURN IT BACK?

RAYS FLASH FROM HIS HAND WHERE HIS POWER IS HIDDEN (HAB 3:4).

I AM CLOTHED WITH POWER FROM ON HIGH (LUKE 24:48).

THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN ME. (LUKE 17:21).

I HAVE AN ANOINTING FROM THE HOLY ONE, AND … I KNOW THE TRUTH. (1 JOHN 2:20)

MAY THE PRAISE OF GOD BE IN MY MOUTH AND A DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD IN MY HAND … THIS IS THE GLORY OF ALL HIS SAINTS. (PSALM 149)

GLORIFY THE LORD WITH ME; LET US EXALT HIS NAME TOGETHER. (PS 34:3).

PROCLAIM THE POWER OF GOD (PS 68:34).

THE SAME SPIRIT THAT ROSE CHRIST JESUS FROM THE DEAD DWELLS IN ME. (ROM 8:11).

FOR GOD IS ABLE TO DO EXCEEDINGLY ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ALL I CAN ASK OR THINK ACCORDING TO THE POWER THAT IS AT WORK IN ME.

LORD, I DECLARE I AM A PERSON FULL OF GOD’S GRACE AND POWER, TO DO WONDERS AND MIRACULOUS SIGNS.

THESE SIGNS ACCOMPANY THEM THAT BELIEVE (MARK 16:16).

I BELIEVE ONLY.

I WALK AS JESUS DID.

FOR I DID NOT SPEAK OF MY OWN ACCORD, BUT THE FATHER WHO SENT ME COMMANDED ME WHAT TO SAY AND HOW TO SAY IT.I KNOW HIS COMMAND LEADS TO ETERNAL LIFE.SO WHATEVER I SAY IS JUST WHAT THE FATHER HAS TOLD ME TO SAY JOHN 12:50

I HAVE NOT DEPARTED FROM THE COMMAND OF HIS LIPS; I HAVE TREASURED THE WORDS OF HIS MOUTH MORE THAN MY DAILY BREAD

JOB 23:12

I LET THE WORD OF GOD DWELL IN ME RICHLY.

JESUS HAS BEEN MADE UNTO ME WISDOM.JESUS, IN WHOM ARE HIDDEN ALL THE TREASURES OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE.

THE ANOINTING I RECEIVED FROM HIM REMAINS IN ME, AND I DO NOT NEED ANYONE TEACH ME.BUT AS HIS ANOINTING TEACHES ME ABOUT ALL THINGS AND AS THAT ANOINTING IS REAL – NOT COUNTERFEIT – JUST AS IT HAS TAUGHT ME, I REMAIN IN HIM.

I ACCEPT INSTRUCTION FROM HIS MOUTH AND LAY UP HIS WORDS IN MY HEART.

THE VOICE OF A STRANGER I DO NOT FOLLOW.

I LISTEN TO HIS VOICE, HE KNOWS ME, AND I FOLLOW HIM. NO ONE CAN SNATCH ME OUT OF HIS HAND. HE AND THE FATHER ARE ONE.THE FATHER IS GREATER THAN ALL.I AM NOT IN THE HAND OF MAN, I AM NOT IN THE HAND OF CIRCUMSTANCES, I AM IN THE HAND OF GOD.

HIS HAND GUIDES ME, HIS RIGHT HAND HOLDS ME FAST.

I AM A SON OF GOD LED BY HIS SPIRIT.

I AM FULL OF WORDS AND THE SPIRIT INSIDE COMPELS ME.

THE WORD OF GOD IS THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT.

HE MAKES MY MOUTH LIKE A SHARPENED SWORD.

SPIRIT OF THE LORD SPEAK THROUGH ME, YOUR WORD BE ON MY TONGUE.

THEY CAN NOT STAND UP AGAINST MY WISDOM OR THE SPIRIT BY WHICH I SPEAK.

GOD’S WORD DOES NOT RETURN VOID.

THEY WILL ONLY FIND THEMSELVES FIGHTING GOD.

KENNETH COPELAND

BELIEVER’S VOICE OF VICTORY NOV 2001

FAITH AT YOUR SERVICE

THE DEVIL HAS BEEN LYING TO US AND IT’S TIME TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT. HE’S BEEN TELLING US THAT WE JUST DON’T HAVE THE FAITH TO MOVE THE MOUNTAINS IN OUR LIVES.BUT I WANT YOU TO KNOW, THAT’S JUST NOT SO.IN FACT, THE VERY IDEA THAT YOU AND I, BORN AGAIN CHILDREN OF ALMIGHTY GOD, DON’T HAVE THE FAITH IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD.

I CAN ALREADY HEAR YOUR MIND WORKING. OH, BROTHER COPELAND, YOU JUST DON’T KNOW ME.I CAN’T SEEM TO BELIEVE GOD FOR ANYTHING.I USED TO TRY, BUT IT NEVER WORKED FOR ME, SO THESE DAYS I JUST DON’T GO IN FOR THAT ‘FAITH STUFF’ VERY MUCH.

IF THAT’S WHAT YOU THINK, THEN HOLD ON TO YOUR SOCKS BECAUSE WHAT I’M ABOUT TO SHWO YOU FROM THE WORD OF GOD IS GOING TO KNOCK THEM RIGHT OFF YOU.YOU SEE, THE WORD NOT ONLY SAYS YOU HAVE FAITH, IT ALSO SAYS FAITH IS YOUR HALLMARK - IT’S WHAT YOU’RE FAMOUS FOR.

THE REASON I CAN SAY THAT WITH SUCH CONFIDENCE IS BECAUSE YOU BELONG TO THE HOUSEHOLD OF JESUS CHRIST - AND THAT’S WHAT HE’S FAMOUS FOR.

HEBREWS 3:6 SAYS:

6: But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.

EPHESIANS 2:19 (20-22) BACKS THAT UP. IT SAYS:

19: Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

20: And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

21: In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

22: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

YOU ARE THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD.

AND ACCORDING TO GALATIANS 6:10, THAT HOUSEHOLD IS KNOWN AS THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH:

10: As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

YOU ARE ‘FAITH HOUSE’.

A COUPLE OF HUNDRED YEARS AGO, POWERFUL FAMILIES WERE KNOWN AS ‘HOUSES’.AND WHEN YOU INTRODUCED SOMEONE AS BEING FROM‘THE HOUSE OF SO-AND-SO’ PEOPLE UNDERSTOOD THAT ALL THE POWER, WEALTH AND INTEGRITY OF THAT FAMILY WAS REPRESENTED BY THAT NAME.

FOR INSTANCE, FOR CENTURIES THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD WAS FAMOUS FOR RICHES.EVERYONE KNEW THAT EVERY FINANCIAL DREAM THEY COULD EVER DREAM WAS WRAPPED UP IN THAT HOUSE.WHEN YOU SAID THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD, IT MEANT MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER COUNT.

THE HOUSE OF FAITH

WITH THAT IN MIND, JUST THINK OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE OF THE HOUSE OF FAITH!IT MEANS WE’RE KNOWN FOR OUR FAITH.FAITH IS WHAT WE ARE.IT’S WHO WE ARE.

WHEN ANYONE ON YOUR BLOCK GETS SICK, THEY OUGHT TO BE HEADING FOR YOUR PLACE.THEY SHOULD SAY, ‘I’M GOING TO FAITH HOUSE AND GET HEALED!’

THE PROBLEM WITH MOST OF US IS THAT EVEN THOUGH WE’VE BEEN BORN INTO THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH, EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE WITHIN US THE SAME POWERFUL MEASURE OF FAITH THAT GOD WROUGHT WHEN HE RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD (EPH 1:19-20), WE DON’T KNOW MUCH ABOUT USING IT.IN FACT, WE’RE DOWNRIGHT SHY ABOUT IT.

INSTEAD OF BOLDLY PUTTING FAITH TO WORK TO BRING THE HEALTH, POWER AND PROSPERITY THE WORD PROMISES, TOO MANY BELIEVERS GET SO ‘HUMBLE’.

‘OH, I DON’T NEED MUCH MONEY,’ THEY SAY. ‘JUST ENOUGH FOR ME AND MY LITTLE FAMILY TO GET BY.’OR ‘I’LL JUST PUT UP WITH THIS ILLNESS… I’M SUFFERING FOR JESUS.’

THAT’S RIDICULOUS!GOD HAS HONOURED US BY BRINGING US INTO THE MOST POWERFUL HOUSEHOLD EVER CREATED.HE’S MADE US HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS - JOINT HEIRS WITH JESUS.HE’S GIVEN US A SERVANT CALLED FAITH AND HE EXPECTS US TO PUT THAT SERVANT TO WORK FOR US.

THAT’S RIGHT!YOU AND I ARE NOTSERVANTS IN THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH. FAITH IS THE SERVANT!JESUS TOLD THE DISCIPLES THAT IN LUKE 17.THEY ASKED HIM ABOUT FAITH AND HE SAID:

LUKE 17:7-9 (OTHERS INCLUDED)

5: And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.

6: And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

7: But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?

8: And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?

9: Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.

10: So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

WHAT WAS JESUS SAYING?FAITH, THE VERY SAME POWERFUL FORCE IN GOD’S WORD THAT BROUGHT ALL THE UNIVERSE INTO EXISTENCE, HAS BEEN GIVEN TO YOU.IT HAS THE SAME LIFE, THE SAME POWER IN IT THAT IT’S ALWAYS HAD.AND IT’S AT YOUR DISPOSAL.

HOW DO YOU PUT FAITH TO WORK? JESUS ANSWERED THAT WHEN HE SAID:

LUKE 17:6: And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

YOU HAVE TO REALISE JESUS HAD ALREADY TAUGHT THE DISCIPLES THAT THE PRIMARY OPERATING PRINCIPLE OF EVERYTHING IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD WAS THE PRINCIPLE OF SEEDTIME AND HARVEST.

IN MARK 4:31-32 HE’D SAID:

30: And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

31: It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

32: But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

33: And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.

JESUS WAS TELLING THE DISCIPLES: PLANT YOUR FAITH AND IT WILL GROW!IF YOU NEED A MOUNTAIN MOVED, PLANT YOUR FAITH UNDER IT AND IT WILL GROW BIG ENOUGH TO BLOW THAT MOUNTAIN INTO THE SEA (MARK 11:23):

(22: And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. (THE ORIGINAL TEXT: HAVE THE FAITH OF GOD)

23: For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

24: Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.)

IT MUST GROW

THE SAME THING IS TRUE FOR YOU. IF YOU'LL TAKE THAT SEED OF FAITH YOU HAVE INSIDE YOU, PLANT IT WITH THE WORDS OF YOUR MOUTH, THEN SPEAK IT OUT AND SAY TO THE MOUNTAIN, ‘BE THOU REMOVED AND BE THOU CAST INTO THE SEA’ AND IF YOU REFUSE TO ALLOW DOUBT TO DIG UP THAT SEED, IT WILL GROW. IT MUST GROW. IT HAS NO CHOICE.

THE LAW OF GOD SAYS IT MUST AND THAT LAW CANNOT BE REVERSED.

(1 PETER 1:23

THE WORD OF GOD IS IMPERISHABLE SEED).

AND SEED CAN’T ARGUE.IF YOU PLANT A COTTON SEED, THERE’S NO WAY THAT SEED CAN SAY, ‘HOLD IT!MY DADDY WAS A COTTON STALK.MY GRANDDADDY WAS A COTTON STALK.I’M FED UP WITH COTTON STALKS.I REFUSE TO BE COTTON. I AM GOING TO BE CORN.IF I CAN’T BE CORN, I JUST WON’T BE ANYTHING.’

A SEED CAN’T SAY THAT.IT’S A SERVANT.IT HAS TO DO WHAT IT’S MADE TO DO.FAITH IS THE SAME WAY.IF CANNOT REFUSE YOU. IT’S A SERVANT AND IT ALWAYS WORKS THE WAY GOD DESIGNED IT TO.

YOU SAY, ‘IT DOESN’T WORK FOR ME!’ YES, IT DOES.IF IT STOPS WORKING FOR YOU, YOU’RE THE ONE WHO STOPPED IT. IT’S A SERVANT. IF YOU STOP IT, IT WILL STOP.

YOU CAN PLANT AN ACRE OF COTTON SEED, THEN GO OUT IN THE MORNING AND DIG IT UP TO SEE IF IT’S GROWING.DO YOU KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN? YOU CROP WILL FAIL.IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT! YOU MESSED IT UP. THE SEED DIDN’T’ HAVE A CHANCE.

IFYOU HAD LEFT THAT SEED IN THE GROUND, IT WOULD HAVE GROWN. IT’S A SLAVE TO THE SOIL, WATER, AIR AND LIGHT. WHEN IT HAS THOSE THINGS, IT MUST GROW.

IN THE SAME WAY, FAITH CAN’T SAY, ‘NO, YOU’RE NOT GOING TO GET YOUR HEALING THIS TIME.’IF YOU HAVE THE FAITH OF GOD IN YOU - AND YOU DO IF YOU’VE MADE JESUS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE -AND YOU PUT THE WORD OF GOD CONCERNING HEALING INSIDE YOUR SPIRIT, YOU STAY WITH IT, AND FEED AND WATER IT WITH THE WORD AND PRAYER, YOU’LL HAVE HEALING

(NB.TYPIST’S NOTE: SEE MATT 13:23:

18: Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

19: When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

20: But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

21: Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

22: He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

23: But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.)

SEE ALSO ISAIAH 27:1-6:

1: In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.

2: In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine.

3: I the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.

4: Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle?I would go through them, I would burn them together.

5: Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.

6: He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.

SEE ALSO JEREMIAH 1:11-12

11: Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou?And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree.

12: Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.

SEE ALSO EZEK 36:29:

27: And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

28: And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

29: I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.

30: And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.

SEE MARK 16:19-20:

19: So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

20: And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.)

FAITH CAN NEVER REFUSE YOU.YOU JUST STAY WITH IT AND IT WILL BRING YOU YOUR HEALING.

‘OH, BROTHER COPELAND, I JUST DON’T KNOW IF IT WILL WORK THAT WAY FOR ME.’

IT ALREADY HAS!THE DAY YOU WERE SAVED, THE SERVANT OF THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH CAME TO YOU AND SAID, ‘HOW MAY I SERVE YOU?’

AND YOU SAID, ‘GET ME BORN AGAIN.’ THEN YOU BELIEVED IN YOUR HEART AND CONFESSED WITH YOUR MOUTH THAT JESUS IS THE RISEN SON OF GOD AND LORD OF YOUR LIFE. FAITH WENT TO WORK AND DID ITS JOB. IT MADE YOU A NEW CREATION.

IF YOU’LL QUIT LISTENING TO TRADITIONS, AND QUIT LETTING PEOPLE TALK YOU INTO DIGGING YOUR SEED UP, FAITH WILL WORK THE SAME WAY FOR YOU TODAY THAT IT DID THE DAY YOU WERE BORN AGAIN.IT WON’T ARGUE WITH YOU.IT WILL GO TO WORK SERVING YOU - BRINGING YOU EVERYTHING THE WORD OF GOD HAS PROMISED.

THINK ABOUT IT.YOU HAVE A SERVANT TO TAKE CARE OF YOU.JESUS’ OWN PERSONAL SERVANT CALLED FAITH.IF YOU WANT A GLIMPSE OF HOW TO PUT THAT SERVANT TO WORK, JUST LOOK AT JESUS’MINISTRY.HE HAD IT WORKING ALL THE TIME.

YOU CAN SEE AN EXAMPLE OF IT IN MARK 11, WHEN JESUS CURSED THE FIG TREE.HE SPOKE TO THAT TREE AND SAID, ‘NO MAN EAT FRUIT OF THEE HEREAFTER FOR EVER’ (VERSE 14).THEN HE TURNED AND WALKED AWAY.WHEN HE LATER PASSED BY IT AGAIN, HE DIDN’T RUN OVER TO SEE IF HIS FAITH HAD WORKED. HE JUST WALKED RIGHT ON BY.

(MARK 11:20-22:

20: And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

21: And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.

22: And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God OR HAVE THE FAITH OF GOD.)

IT’S YOUR SERVANT TOO

IF PETER HADN’T SAID ANYTHING ABOUT IT, JESUS WOULD NEVER HAVE EVEN MENTIONED IT AGAIN.HEJUST TOOK IT FOR GRANTEDTHAT HIS FAITH DID ITS WORK.‘OH WELL, THAT WAS JESUS.I CAN’T OPERATE LIKE HE DID.’

YES, YOU CAN!YOU’RE HIS JOINT HEIR IN THE HOUSE OF FAITH.HE’S GIVEN YOU THAT SAME FAITH SERVANT THAT WITHERED THE FIG TREE.IT WILL WORK FOR YOU TODAY JUST LIKE IT WORKED FOR HIM.(IF YOU HAVE FAITH AS A MUSTARD SEED… THE SMALLEST OF ALL SEEDS… GROWS INTO THE BIGGEST GARDEN PLANT -MATT 13:31 / MATT 17:20).HE WAS AND IS OUR EXAMPLE OF FAITH.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE SOME KIND OF SPIRITUAL GIANT.YOU JUST HAVE TO BE WILLING TO PLANT THAT SEED!

HE’S IN THERE WHEN YOU GO TO BED AT NIGHT AND WHEN YOU GET UP IN THE MORNING.

YOU’RE WALKING AROUND WRINGING YOUR HANDS WONDERING WHAT TO DO, BUT YOUR SERVANT IS RIGHT THERE INSIDEYOU, READY TO SERVE YOU.

BUT MOST OF THE TIME YOU WON’T LET HIM. SICKNESS COMES KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR AND INSTEAD OF SENDING YOUR FAITH SERVANT TO THE DOOR TO DRIVE IT AWAY, YOU LET IT IN.YOU SAY, ‘COME ON IN, SICKNESS.HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO BE WITHME THIS TIME?’

ALL THE WHILE YOUR FAITH SERVANT IS THERE SCRATCHING HIS HEAD.‘BOY, DOESN’T THIS BEAT ALL?HERE COMES THAT SCRAWNY SICKNESS AGAIN, COMING IN HERE AND RUNNING THIS HOUSEHOLD DOWN. AM I IN THE RIGHT PLACE?YES, IT’S THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH.JESUS SENT ME HERE TO SERVE THIS PERSON, BUT HE DOESN’T ACT LIKE HE KNOWS I’M HERE.

COME ON, MAN, I’M YOUR SERVANT! GET YOUR BIBLE.TURN ME LOOSE ON THAT SICKNESS.DON’T KEEP ME STANDING OVER HERE IN THE CORNER!’

IF YOU’VE BEEN TREATING FAITH THAT WAY… STOP!PUT IT TO WORK AND SEE HOW POWERFUL IT IS.JESUS SPOKE TO THAT FIG TREE AND FAITH WENT RIGHT DOWN INTO THE GROUND AND GRABBED HOLD OF THE ROOTS AND SAID, ‘NO MAN SHALL EAT FRUIT OF YOU AGAIN FOREVER.’

IT WILL DO THE SAME THING TO CANCER. YOU RELEASE YOUR FAITH SERVANT ON IT AND IT WILL START EATING AWAY AT THAT FOUL THING.THAT CANCER WILL SAY, ‘LET’S GET OUT OF HERE.I DON’T WANT TO MESS WITH THE CHIEF SERVANT OVER AT THE FAITH HOUSE. HE’LL EAT ME ALIVE!’

RIGHT NOW YOUR FAITH SERVANT IS TRYING TO GET THROUGH TO YOU.HE’S WAITING EAGERLY TO BLOW AWAY THE MOUNTAINS IN YOUR LIFE.QUIT PUTTING HIM OFF AND PUT HIM TO WORK.AFTER ALL, YOU ARE THE HOUSE OF FAITH! IT’S TIME YOU STARTED TO ACT LIKE IT!

QUOTES FROM

CHAPTER 8

ADAPTED

In everything I give You thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning me... All things work together for good to them that love the Lord and are called according to his purpose. Lord, I love You and am called according to Your purpose. All things work together for my good.

If you can only believe that God is really working this thing out for the best for all, then all you have to do is trust Him and begin to thank Him—regardless of what the situation looks like.

Turning the whole situation over to God and thanking Him for having allowed it to happen.

Thank you, Lord, that the circumstances are as they are... I surely don't understand it, but Your Word says I should thank You for all things, so I'll do it.

Lord I turn my life over to you in a deeper commitment than ever before.

I am determined to let God work out the problems in my life.

I believe that God actually controls all things.

The very act of praise releases the power of God into a set of circumstances and enables God to change them.

This is about thanking God for all things and that if I try it, God will be able to solve my problem in the best way.

I pray, God, that You would release in me enough faith to believe that You are a God of love and power who holds the universe in Your hand.

Whatever happens, God you have full control of my life and will work out whatever would be for my good.

The battle isn't mine; it is God's. While I praise You, God, You send my enemies scurrying.

WALKING IN THE LIGHT

THIS IS HOW I WILL KNOW THAT I AM IN JESUS

WHEN I START WALKING AS JESUS DID

FOR IF I SUBMIT TO YOUR WORD

AND WALK IN THE LIGHT

AS YOU ARE IN THE LIGHT

THEN YOUR LOVE IS TRULY MADE COMPLETE IN ME

FOR YOU ARE LIGHT

AND IN YOU THERE IS NO DARKNESS AT ALL

FOR WHERE MY TREASURE IS

THERE WILL MY HEART BE ALSO

FOR WHEN YOU ARE MY GOLD

AND THE CHOICEST SILVER TO ME

I WILL FIND DELIGHT IN YOU

AND LIFT UP MY FACE TO YOU

I WILL PRAY AND KNOW YOU HEAR ME

AND YOUR LIGHT WILL SHINE ON MY WAYS

I WILL DECLARE A THING

AND IT WILL BE ESTABLISHED FOR ME

AND YOUR LIGHT WILL SHINE ON MY WAYS

THIS IS HOW I WILL KNOW THAT I AM IN JESUS

WHEN I START WALKING AS JESUS DID

WALKING IN THE LIGHT

LET YOUR KINGDOM COME

LET YOUR WILL BE DONE

IN ALL THE EARTH

I ONLY SAY WHAT I HEAR YOU SAY

I ONLY DO WHAT SEE YOU DO

LET YOUR KINGDOM COME

LET YOUR WILL BE DONE

IN ALL THE EARTH

THIS IS HOW I WILL KNOW THAT I AM IN JESUS

WHEN I START WALKING AS JESUS DID

DECREEING FAITH

JOB 22:21-30

21: Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.

22: Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.

23: If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.

24: Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.

25: Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.

26: For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.

27: Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.

28: Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.

29: When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.

30: He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.

JOB 22:28 NKJV SAYS, ‘YOU WILL ALSO DECLARE A THING’ AND THE NIV SAYS, ‘WHAT YOU DECIDE ON WILL BE DONE.’THIS SCRIPTURE SAYS THAT WHEN YOU MEET THE CONDITIONS OF GOD’S WORD THEN WHATEVER YOU DECIDE, DECLARE, AND DECREE IS WHAT WILL BE ESTABLISHED UNTO YOU.

YOU NEED TO ACQUAINT YOURSELF WITH GOD; YOU NEED TO YIELD TO AND SUBMIT YOURSELF TO HIM AND TO ALSO COME INTO AGREEMENT WITH HIM.YOU MUST RECEIVE HIS INSTRUCTIONS AND STORE HIS WORD IN YOUR HEART. YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOR STORED GOD’S WORD IN YOUR HEART, AS YOU SHOULD, UNTIL YOU HAVE BECOME A DOER OF THE WORD.

YOU MUST RETURN TO GOD - DO THINGS HIS WAY - AND PUT SIN, INIQUITY, WICKEDNESS AND UNRIGHTEOUSNESS FAR AWAY FROM YOURSELF AND YOUR HOUSE.YOU MUST PUT GOD FIRST.MONEY AND POSSESSIONS MUST MEAN NOTHING TO YOU COMPARED TO HIM. WHEN YOU CAN TAKE THE THINGS THAT ARE MOST IMPORTANT TO YOU AND PUT IT AWAY FROM YOU AS IF YOU ARE THROWING GOLD IN THE DUST, TO BE WASHED AWAY BY THE BROOK, THEN THE ALMIGHTY WILL BE YOUR GOLD AND YOUR PRECIOUS SILVER.THE KJV SAYS THAT THE ALMIGHTY WILL BE YOUR DEFENSE.

WHEN YOU DELIGHT IN GOD AND YOU LIFT YOUR FACE TO HIM AND PRAY TO HIM, HE WILL HEAR YOU.YOU WILL PAY YOUR VOWS - YOUR TITHES AND OFFERINGS.WHEN YOU HAVE DONE ALL THESE THINGS, YOU CAN DECREE AND DECLARE A THING AND IT WILL BE ESTABLISHED UNTO YOU.WHAT YOU SAY WILL COME TO PASS!WHEN THE LORD IS NUMBER ONE IN YOUR LIFE AND YOU DO ALL YOU CAN TO PLEASE HIM - EVERYTHING YOU DECIDE ON AND THEN SPEAK OUT AND DECREE - YOU WILL HAVE!

1 JOHN 5:14-15

14: And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

15: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

I JOHN 5:14-15 AMP:

THIS IS THE CONFIDENCE (THE ASSURANCE, THE PRIVILEGE OF BOLDNESS) WHICH WE HAVE IN HIM: (WE ARE SURE) THAT IF WE ASK ANYTHING (MAKE ANY REQUEST) ACCORDING TO HIS WILL (IN AGREEMENT WITH HIS OWN PLAN), HE LISTENS TO AND HEARS US. AND IF (SINCE) WE (POSITIVELY) KNOW THAT HE LISTENS TO US IN WHATEVER WE ASK, WE ALSO KNOW ( WITH SETTLED AND ABSOLUTE KNOWLEDGE) THAT WE HAVE (GRANTED US AS OUR PRESENT POSSESSIONS) THE REQUESTS MADE OF HIM.

WHEN YOUR LIFE AND YOUR HEART AND YOUR MOUTH LINE UP WITH GOD’S WILL AND HIS WAYS, YOU CAN BOLDLY COME BEFORE HIM AND ASK FOR WHAT YOU NEED AND WANT.YOU CAN DECLARE A THING WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE THAT HE HEARS YOU. AS LONG AS GOD HEARS YOU, YOU POSITIVELY KNOW WITH AS SETTLED KNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR REQUESTS ARE GRANTED - RIGHT NOW, NOT ONE DAY, BUT RIGHT NOW - AND YOU WILL HAVE THOSE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE DECIDED, DECLARED, AND DECREED!SPEAK IT OUT BOLDLY AND SEE THE POWER OF GOD MOVE ON YOUR BEHALF!

WHY WAS I BORN?

WHO IS MAN THAT YOU ARE MINDFUL OF HIM?

YOU CREATED ME A LITTLE LOWER THAN ELOHIM

IN YOUR IMAGE YOU MADE ME

YOU WHO FORMED THE MOUNTAINS

WHO CAST THEM IN THE SEA

WHO MADE ME FROM THE DUST OF THE EARTH

AND PUT YOUR SPIRIT IN ME

WHY WAS I BORN?

YOU KNIT ME TOGETHER IN MY MOTHER’S WOMB

MY FRAME WAS NOT HIDDEN

FROM THE LIGHT OF YOUR FACE

WHEN I WAS MADE IN THE SECRET PLACE

WHEN I WAS WOVEN TOGETHER

IN THE DEPTHS OF THE EARTH

YOUR EYES SAW MY UNFORMED BODY

LONG BEFORE I WAS GIVEN BIRTH

ALL THE DAYS ORDAINED FOR ME

WERE WRITTEN IN YOUR BOOK

BEFORE ONE OF THEM CAME TO BE

BEFORE A WORD IS ON MY TONGUE

YOU KNOW IT COMPLETELY

I LIVE NOT ON BREAD ALONE

BUT ON EVERY WORD

THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD

YOUR WORD IS A LAMP TO MY FEET

A LIGHT TO MY PATH

YOUR THOUGHTS TOWARDS ME OUTNUMBER THE SANDS

YOU HAVE ENGRAVED ME ON THE PALMS OF YOUR HANDS

YOU KNOW THE PLANS YOU HAVE FOR ME

WHERE CAN I GO FROM YOUR SPIRIT?

WHERE CAN I FLEE?

IF I RISE ON THE WINGS OF THE DAWN

IF I SETTLE ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE SEA

EVEN THERE YOUR HAND WILL GUIDE ME

AS A LIGHT SHINING IN THE DARK

UNTIL THE DAY DAWNS

AND THE MORNING STAR

RISES IN MY HEART

A SON BORN TO WALK WITH GOD

MESSIAH GIVEN BIRTH

THE WORD BECAME FLESH AND DWELT AMONG US

WHEN SHEPHERDS IN FIELDS NEARBY

WERE BATHED IN GLORIOUS LIGHT

IN DEEPEST DARKEST NIGHT

FALLING DOWN UPON THEIR KNEES

THEY HEARD THE WORD THAT GOD WAS PLEASED

TO SEND INTO THE EARTH

A CHILD, A KING

A SAVIOR BORN

IN BETHLEHEM

MESSIAH GIVEN BIRTH

WISE MEN TOO HAD SOUGHT THE PAGES

OF THE PROPHETS THROUGH THE AGES

TO LEARN THE TRUTH OF THE COMING KING

AS THE DAWN ROSE ON ITS WING

AND FLAMED THE SKY WITH FIRE

FROM AFAR

SHONE THE BRIGHT MORNING STAR

AND LED AS IT ROSE HIGHER

JOSHUA SAID, 'O SUN STAND STILL OVER GIBEON'
JESUS SAID, 'PEACE, BE STILL!' TO THE WINDS AND WAVES
JESUS SAID TO THE FIG TREE, 'NO MAN WILL EAT FROM YOU AGAIN'
JESUS SAID, 'IF YOU SAY TO THIS MOUNTAIN, BE THOU REMOVED
AND BE CAST IN THE SEA, AND DO NOT DOUBT IN YOUR HEART,
