Believing and Confessing The Word of God By Jeanne Theriault
What is the Spirit of Faith?
The Spirit of faith is one who believes in the impossible. When you speak out the promises of God it will bring it into existence.
2 Corinthians 4:13 It is written I believe therefore I have spoken. With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak.
God has given us all a measure of faith (Romans 12:3)
Romans 10:8 But what does it say? The word is near you , it is in your mouth and in your heart, that is the word of faith we are proclaiming.
True faith is when you believe the Word in your heart and confess the Word with your mouth.
Matthew 12:34 For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.
Faith has to rise above your fears, and your doubts. There is hope in having faith.
Galatians 5:5 By faith we earnestly await through the spirit the righteousness for which we hope for.
Hebrews 11:6 And 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 seek him.
Jude 24 To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy .
When you have faith your confession should be I have the spirit of faith. I believe the word of God. God had given to me a measure of faith. I am a believer and not a doubter. The word is near it is me in my heart and in my mouth. I am victorious for faith is my victory!
It is speaking the word of God saying that we agree with him . By agreeing with God we will have what he says in His Word.
His Word stimulates faith and faith activates his power.
Numbers 23:19 God is not a man that he should lie, nor a son of man that he should change his mind. Does he speak and not act? Does he promise and not fulfill? I have received a command to bless, he has blessed and I cannot change it.
Malachi 3:6 I am the Lord, I do not change.
1 Kings 8:56 There has not failed one word of all his good promise
1 John 5:14 This is the confidence we have in approaching God , that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us whatever we ask we know that we have what we asked of him.
Lord your word gives us life it activates your power whenever we speak out your promises. Faith is the substance of things that we hope for , the evidence of things we do not see. Thank you Lord for the gift of faith in our lives. Lord we pray for wisdom nothing wavering or doubting your word. When trails come our faith will be victorious knowing that our faith in you will see us through for nothing is impossible to them who believe. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world. Amen
