Faith Comes

ROMANS 10:8-10
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy heart: that is, the word of FAITH, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto SALVATION.

Now notice in verse 8 that the word of faith must be in your mouth as well as in your heart for faith to work for you. If the Word is only in your heart, it won’t work. But when faith is in both your heart and in your mouth, thank God, your faith will work! Amen

The Faith to Receive

In the gospel of Jesus Christ, there is provision for every need—salvation, deliverance, safety, preservation, healing, and soundness. Whatever need you have, the faith to receive your answer comes from hearing the Word of God. As you determine to feed upon the Word continually, you will see your faith grow to be able to receive the wonderful promises God has provided for His children. Amen

Now Faith

Now FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

God is telling us exactly what Bible faith is.
Hebrews 11:1 says that faith is the evidence of things not seen and faith is the substance of things hoped for.
In other words, faith is substance. Moffatt’s translation of Hebrews 11:1 reads: “Now faith means that we are confident of what we hope for, convinced of what we do not see.” Another translation reads: “Faith is giving substance to things hoped for.” Amen

Doubt vs. Faith

It is unscriptural to pray to God for healing using the words, “If it be Thy will.” When you put an “if” in your prayer in praying for anything God has promised you in His Word, you are praying in doubt.
When you pray in faith, you don’t use an “if.” You will get no answer to the prayer of faith if you put “ifs” in your prayers. But when you are praying a prayer of consecration, committing your life to the plan of God, then you can use the phrase, “If it be Thy will,” because you don’t know for sure what the Lord’s will is.
“If” is the badge of doubt, and the word “if” shouldn’t be used in your prayers if you are trying to change a situation.
In the gospel of Jesus Christ, there is provision for every need—salvation, deliverance, safety, preservation, healing, and soundness. Whatever need you have, the faith to receive your answer comes from hearing the Word of God. As you determine to feed upon the Word continually, you will see your faith grow to be able to receive the wonderful promises God has provided for His children. Amen

Healing Is a Part of the Gospel

Paul preached the gospel of salvation which includes healing. The Bible simply calls it the gospel. How do we know he did? Look at Romans 1:16. ROMANS 1:16 16 For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is the power of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. The footnote in the Scofield Bible says, “The Hebrew and Greek words for salvation imply the ideas of deliverance, safety, preservation, healing, and soundness.” I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ! It is the power of God unto deliverance, safety, preservation, healing, and soundness. Paul preached the full gospel, not just part of it. We also know that healing was a part of the gospel that was preached because other scriptures indicate it as well. ACTS 8:5-8 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST [the gospel] unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing THE MIRACLES which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were HEALED. 8 And there was great joy in that city. Notice in verse 7 the miracles that followed the preaching of the Word—the gospel. Those healing miracles and deliverances all came about as the result of preaching Christ. The New Testament knows no Christ without Christ the Healer. Physical healing—divine healing—is a part of the gospel. If there is no gospel of healing today, then none of us has a gospel of salvation to preach either because healing is included in the atonement (Isa. 53:4,5). Amen

Faith Comes

The Bible clearly shows that faith has not been done away with. The man at Lystra had faith to be healed, and concerning the woman with the issue of blood, it was her faith that made her whole. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. Notice in Mark 5:34 that Jesus didn’t say that His power or His faith had made the woman whole. Jesus said to the woman, “. . . THY FAITH hath made thee whole . . .”
(Mark 5:34). Amen

How Faith  Comes

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6

Notice particularly the first part of Hebrews 11:6: “But without faith it is impossible to please him. . . .”

If God demands that I have faith when it is impossible for me to have faith, then I have a right to challenge His justice.
But if He places within my hands the means whereby faith can be produced, then the responsibility rests with me whether or not I have faith. Amen
