“And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak, knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you.” II Corinthians 4:13-14 (NKJV); 1 Corinthians 12:7-10(NKJV)
Word of God & Spirit of faith:
Read the Word of God and believe completely what it says is true without diluting the power in the Word. Meditate on them day and night, chew on them so that it gets into your system. We have to receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and receive gift of faith which is the spirit of faith. Once you know that God’s Word is final and true in your heart for sure, then speak the Word into the atmosphere for the angels to hear them. The angels of God who are appointed for you are waiting for you to speak God’s Word. They respond to God’s Word only and so they will be jobless if you are not confessing in your mouth anything good. Instead you say things contrary to the Word of God knowing or unknowingly, the demons, Devil’s assistants listen and go do that for you. This is the warfare that is happening in the spiritual realm.
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:7-10 (NKJV)
Believing & Confessing :
Even receiving salvation for your soul you need to believe truly in your heart and confess with your mouth. Just reading the Bible and praying some self-centred prayers will not help you. We got to get seriously into learning about God and Jesus and knowing the likes and dislikes of Him and dedicate yourself to do accordingly matters. Only then the joy of the salvation with the assurance of your sins had been forgiven fill your heart and mind.
“When Jesus heard it, He marvelled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel! Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.” Matthew 8:10, 13 (NKJV); Matthew 15:25-28(NKJV)
Believing & Receiving:
You should have great faith like the centurion to receive healing in your bodies. The doctors will tell the facts of the condition of your body, but you have to put your faith in the Word of God which says about Jesus’ finished work on the Cross all in Past Tense. It is ‘Done deal!’ “For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps: “Who committed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth”; who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.”I Peter 2:21-24 (NKJV) Believe and therefore speak!!
