Faith Padlocks the Enemy Out

 

We see a list of pieces of amour to wear in the Lords army in Ephesians 6:14-17.

14.Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15. And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16. Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:…

No doubt every piece of this equipment is important, but notice that verse 16 says, Above all, taking the shield of faith, ( what would be the result of taking up the shield of Faith?) You would be able to quench, put out, stop, not just some of the fiery darts, but ALL of the fiery darts of the wicked one. Now it’s inevitable that fiery darts are going to come. Even while I’m speaking you could list several that have been on the horizon for some time now. Yet this author says that we have the ability to stop them all. (the Apostle Paul). For what you believe about the situation determines the outcome.

Faith Is Contagious

 

2 Corinthians 4:13 

13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak

When you see others receive by faith, it begins to ignite a flame. That flame leaps from heart to heart, till the ones who hear and see prepare their hearts so that they can receive. The faith of the Apostles so spread throughout the land, that down through the ages men and women have raised the standard; receiving miracles, performing signs, and causing those around to wonder. The faith of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, is quickly covering the globe. Step into that stream of faith. Allow the blessings of faith in the word, to come on you and overtake you.

Acts 17:6b

…These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also;

Faith Justfies

 

Justification 

Ohhh to stand justified, not remembering the past, or that former life.

This can be your portion. Let the living Christ come into your heart.

Repeat these words:

Come into my heart Lord Jesus 

Come into my heart Lord Jesus

Forgive me of my sins

I want to walk in peace with God

Now I’ve believe you heard me. In Jesus Name Amen

It’s the believing part that ushers him in.

Romans 5:1

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ

Faith Laughs

Learn to laugh. That’s it. For when you learn to laugh, a catalyst of strength it will be to put you through to your Victory. Songs have been sung with joyous melodies. Pick one up. This will lighten the atmosphere. Talk of valiant things. Those valiant things about the King. And not necessarily on the outside, but see yourself with a joyful glide. And on the wings of your Joy, those symptoms release, all forms of oppression just decrease. And as this becomes your way of life, you’ll move from faith on into sight.

James 1:2-3 

2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

Hold Fast to Your Confession Of Faith

 

When you declare by faith your rights that were purchased for you in Christ, you may be going for the ride of your life. 

But hold on and hold fast, strengthen your grip, strengthen your grasp.

And don’t let go of your confession ; believe!

And Victory shall be granted thee.

Hebrews 4:14-16

Our Compassionate High Priest

  1. Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Faith Is

 

Faith is (present tense). If its not right now, its not faith. If it’s just around the corner, it’s not faith. If you say God is going do it, its not faith. If you see things off in the future its not faith. Faith is! Faith is! If you say I don’t know why its taking so long, (without proper preparation ) it will never come. If you say just keep praying for me, ( for the very same thing), you’ll remain the same. If you see yourself any other way than having your answer right now, your not in faith. Faith calls those things that be not as though they were. Let me repeat that, faith calls those things that be not as though they were.

Romans 4:17-25 King James Version (KJV)

17. (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

18. Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

19..And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb:

20. He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

21. And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

22. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

23. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;

24. But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

25. Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Faith Delights in the Unseen

 

When your operating in the God kind of faith, your vision is clear. Your seeing things that other men and women don’t see. For if they did, they’d be delighted like you.

A faith man or woman sees God’s salvation demonstrated daily. A Faith man or woman sees those who they’ve prayed for with their answer. A faith man or woman boy or girl, sees the home full of love and peace. For in the midst of the faith man or woman’s mind, is the picture that all that God said has become true. Here are a list of some of those things:

Psalms 23:1 The LORD IS my shepherd; I shall not want.

Philippians 4:19 And my God will supply all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

Psalms 103:2-5

  1. 2. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
  2. 3. Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
  3. 4. Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
  4. 5. Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
  5. Acts 16:31. And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
  6. (When you believe in your heart,  you step into the manifeststion right then in your soul, then it is portayed in the natural for God and his Word are good as Gold.)
  7. Psalms 91:16. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
  8. Psalms 37:4 Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Faith Walks Over Obstacles

Does there seem to be so many things standing between you and you faith? Nay but the Lord has clearly heard you today. 

Mark 2:1-5;11b

  1. And again he entered into Capernaum, after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2. And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3. And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5.  When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.  11b. …Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. 12. And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

Faith Releases Your Angels

 

When you go about your daily living. You pick up on something. Then you begin to speak, or rather you gather your thoughts and readjust your position from the inside. And you hold your peace, and only release, the promise made to you by God’s word in that situation.

So instead of binding the angels that work on your behalf, you release them, and boy! You sure are glad, that once before you spoke God’s word’s; speaking for victory, and his blessings did shower down upon thee. You will consistently receive, as you draw not back from the word of God, speak up, and believe. 

Psalms 103:20

  1. Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his words

Faith Rejoices!

Come On, Let’s Get Excited!

John 16:24 

New International Version

Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.

Friends are you thrilled with the Word of God? That’s when it works for you, when you get so thrilled, you can hardly be still! 2 Chronicles 16:9a says:

For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. A perfect heart is full of love and joyful expectancy. When your expectations with Joy, supersedes those seeming contradictions that stand as a wall before you; and you determine to rejoice just because God said to, you will move from Faith to sight, and your jubilance it will ignite!
