Supernatural Faith

God’s Revealed Will

When we read Mark 1:40–45, we cannot question whether healing is God’s will.
Some insist that we must always preface our prayer for healing with, “If it is Your will.” How can one have positive faith when one begins a request with an “if”? We do not pray for salvation with an “if.” “If it is Your will” is more often an expression of fear—a proviso to “excuse God of blame” if our faith or His sovereign purposes do not bring healing. If His will is questioned, leave the issue to His sovereignty and remove it from your prayer.
At the same time, one cannot intentionally be living in violation of God’s will and expect His promises will be fulfilled. Where biblical conditions for participation in God’s processes are present, they must be met; but let us not avoid either God’s readiness or God’s remedies by reason of the question of His willingness. Amen  Read Isaiah 58:8; Exodus 23:25; Deuteronomy 7:15; James 5:14, 15.

Supernatural Faith

Healed by His Stripes

Isaiah 53:4-5. dynamic ministry of Jesus not only revealed God’s heart of love for mankind’s need of a Redeemer, but unveiled God’s compassionate heart of mercy for mankind’s need of a Healer. The will of God was perfectly disclosed in His Son; we are to seek ways to fully convey that perfect revelation. Just as the Fall of man introduced sickness as a part of the curse, the Cross of Christ hasopened a door to healing as part of salvation’s provision. Healing encompasses God’s power to restore broken hearts, broken homes, broken lives, and broken bodies. Suffering assumes a multiplicity of forms, but Christ’s blood not only covers our sin with redemptive love; His stripes release a resource of healing at every dimension of our need. Amen
Read Matthew 8:16–17.

Supernatural Faith

God is With You

Where faith is a matter of choice, you can be confident that God’s Spirit is speaking the Word upon which you may base your choice to believe. Again using the story of the storm from Mark 4, let us notice that the disciples had His word (“Let us go over to the other side”), and they also had His presence (He was with them in the boat)—He was with them!
He is also with you! Armed by what He has spoken to you, make good choices—choices to believe. Amen

Supernatural Faith

Stand Strong

“sound mind” in 2 Timothy 1:7. The Greek word conveys the idea of discipline, and self-control. While the word “fear” means timidity and a loss of confidence, “sound mind” refers to the ability to be under control during difficult circumstances, to think straight under pressure.
You can choose to take your thoughts and feelings captive and stand strong, or you can choose to panic, giving in to
doubts and fears. The choice is yours. Amen

Supernatural Faith

The Choice of Faith

Mark 4:35–41
Though He made the storm on the outside cease, He expected them to deal with the storm on the inside. As you read through the Gospel narratives, you will be surprised by how often Jesus will control the elements and control demonic spirits—yet you will hardly ever see Him controlling the disciples. Only He could rebuke the storm on the Sea of Galilee. Only they could rebuke the storm of fear and doubt they were experiencing. Amen

Supernatural Faith

Faith Beyond Ability

Begin this section by reading Acts 3:1–16.
Please note that the healing required a choice by Peter. He chose to extend his hand to the lame man and to pick him up. He chose to speak the healing words in the name of the Lord Jesus.
This faith is not a function of character or personal acquisition. Though obedient choice is certainly involved, Peter made it clear that nothing of personal holiness, self-will, or personal power had accomplished this wonderful miracle (Acts 3:12). Amen

Supernatural Faith

People who fully follow the Lord are able to see the Lord in their circumstances. They are not ignorant of the challenges, not playing mind games, pretending to deny the reality of what is being faced—they are seeing the Lord above and beyond the problems! The gift of faith, that supernatural working of the Holy Spirit, comes to those open to and desirous of being filled with that Spirit. Amen
Have a blessed weekend, put Him first in your life and in all you do. Shalom

Supernatural Faith

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit

Spiritual gifts are portions of God’s grace. They display the personal, powerful presence of the Holy Spirit and are given to every believer for the common good of the church. Though we vary in what seems to be each believer’s dominant gifting from God’s creative work in us, the Holy Spirit will give us whatever is needed to minister to distinct circumstances.
The Apostle Paul operated in the gift of faith many times throughout his ministry. The occurrences of this supernatural faith can be recognized in Paul’s unswerving confidence regardless of his situation. At times of seemingly impossible odds, Paul’s faith seemed to be limitless. It was a faith borne of God, not by strength of a powerful human will to believe. Amen

The Choice of Faith

Decide to Believe

Mark 4:35–41

It is significant to note that Jesus rebuked both the storm and the disciples! Though He made the storm on the outside cease, He expected them to deal with the storm on the inside.
Only He could rebuke the storm on the Sea of Galilee. Only they could rebuke the storm of fear and doubt they were experiencing. Amen

Fight the Good Fight

1 Tim. 6:12
If there weren't any hindrances to faith,  there wouldn't be a fight.  When it comes to natural things,  people will fight tooth and toenail for what belongs to them. But when it comes to spiritual things,  many just roll over and play dead.
If the Word of God says something belongs to you, then it belongs to you! Put up a fight, stand your ground on God’s Word.  It is up to you to fight the good fight of faith with the Word  and receive your promised blessings  and all that God has promised you.  Amen

Proverbs 4

Wisdom and Wickedness

The writer of Proverbs 4 gives us the greatest of words. The words of wisdom  so that we may walk in His light and grace. These words also contain words for the wicked. A warning  if you will about the dark paths. As we take heed to the Words of the Father we find promises  in vs. 10,12,13. And life and health to our whole bodies vs. 20-22.

Prayer

Use the Sword of the Spirit Against the Devil

When Jesus was tempted by the devil to turn the stones into bread,  Jesus just answered with the Word.
Matthew 4:4
Jesus did not use a single weapon to defeat the devil on this occasion that the saints of God do not have available to them today. When you are tempted by the Enemy  just say,
"It is written."
In order to effectively  resist the devil.  You have to have the Sword of the Spirit,  If you the Word of God hidden in your heart and meditate on it continually it will work for you. Then you will be able to withstand the attacks of the enemy. Amen

Prayer

Answered Prayer

Learning how to pray effectively is one of the most important things a believer can ever do in his Christian walk.
A believer’s prayer life should be based and built upon the Word of God.
Be specific and stand on God’s promises, decide what you want from God and find the scripture or scriptures that definitely promise you these things.
Praying to have fellowship with God will spill over into the realm of praying specifically in order to receive an answer.
Pray according to the Word. We know that faith begins where the will of God is known, and that God’s Word is His will. Many believer’s are trying to pray beyond their faith. You have to meditate on the Word of God.
Joshua 1:8 A promise to those find these words. Amen
