Thoughts of Faith in God

Faith is a product (supply or yield) of the Word of God. Rom10:17"So then, faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God". When you got born again, God dealt you the measure of faith that you needed, in order for you to be victorious and accomplish all the will of God in this life to the glory of God. That measure of faith is meant to grow and develop by feeding it on the Word, and then exercising the Word. Exercise the Word by using faith filled words like Jesus did. He called forth Lazarus, he cursed the fig tree, he rebuked the winds and sea. Now is our turn to exercise our faith. It is the exercise of the authority of the believer on earth. It is man speaking as God's mouthpiece on the earth. Faith filled words have creative power. Life and death are in the power of the tongue. As you begin to use faith filled words, rather than fear filled or idle words, than God and the Angels will have something to work with in order to bring about the manifestation of the promises of God in your life. Another way that faith is exercised is by corresponding actions of faith. "For as the body without the spirit is dead, even so faith without works is dead also". Your faith is ever living, ever growing. You have the God kind of Faith, the wonder working faith. Hope brings the potential of healing or prosperity or deliverance from fear through the Word of God, but faith (faith filled words, and corresponding actions of faith) release that potential and brings about the manifestation of the desired results. The five physical senses create a barrier of limitations, but living faith can punch a hole through the five senses and lay hold of that which the five senses say is impossible, and pull it into the possible or natural realm. Living faith never senses defeat nor failure. It believes all things are possible. Whatever you can perceive with your five physical senses you don't need faith for. But whatever you have need of in the natural that God's word gives you a promise for, you can and should use your faith to obtain it. If you're sick, use your faith to help you get well. If you're broke, use your faith to help you become financially blessed. Remember, Abraham's blessings are yours. If you lack favor, use your faith to have divine favor in the eyes of all that look upon you and hear your voice, in Jesus name. If you're feeling down and discouraged, use your faith to give you a supernatural lift. Your faith can be stunned or rocked for a moment or two, but true faith never excepts defeat nor failure, it always finds a way and wins. "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ". In it's simplest form, faith is the hand that receives from Almighty God.
