Faith, hope and love are the most powerful forces in the universe. Faith-filled words created all things. Living, Bible hope is the supernatural blueprint of which faith is the substance. But the greatest force is love because God is Love, and He is the Source of our hope. In the light of these powerful forces, everything we can see or feel is subject to change if we’ll keep our eyes on Jesus—The WORD Himself!

Death has been totally defeated! The spirit of death, that is the devil, no longer has the power of death. This is the message of the Cross and the Resurrection. When the fear and reverence for death are removed, only then can a person really enjoy life the way Jesus intended. 

We are the temple of the Living GOD! He said, “I will dwell in you. I will walk in you. You will be My people. I will be a Father to you. You will be My sons and daughters!” Who said that? THE LORD ALMIGHTY—the same One who said, “LIGHT BE!” How can you just sit there?  He’s the One who is able to make ALL GRACE abound toward you.

 Faith in God’s WORD, and its power alone, is the highest kind of faith mentioned in the New Testament. Remember, only one thing is needful: The WORD. How does faith come? Only one way: Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by The WORD of God (Romans 10:17).

Care and anxiety are part of the curse, all of which, of course, is fear based. The phrase “fear not” occurs 95 times in the Bible: 72 times in the first covenant, and 23 times in the second. The same thing is said in different ways all over The WORD of God. For instance, Jesus said in John 14:27, “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Let’s read the entire verse: “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

 Jesus said, “Have faith in God.”

 The Holy Spirit revealed to me in Mark 11:22 - 24 that we should do all we can to have faith. That’s good, and we should, but He was, and still is, impressing on me that He has provided faith for us! The Greek word translated receive in verse 24 is lambano. It means “to take with the hand, lay hold of,” or “to take in order to carry away.” Jesus was saying to me, I’m offering you My faith—TAKE IT, IT’S YOURS! The same six I’s of faith can be  applied to receiving victory over financial problems, family problems or anything else the enemy is trying to steal from you. Meditate on the six I's. Apply them. The victory is yours. Take it!

Have you ever been going along and, suddenly, get blindsided by a bad report? I certainly have. Maybe you hear something about one of your children, or the Internal Revenue Service unexpectedly demands thousands of dollars. Most of the time, the hardest thing to deal with is a doctor’s report that leaves you wondering what hit you, and what in the world do you do now? There are some very important things we must do in these situations, and some equally important things we must never do. The first, and most important, is to STOP! BE STILL, and KNOW that He is GOD. Be quiet. Take authority over your words immediately because the power of death and life are in the tongue (Proverbs 18:21). Your words will determine the outcome of any situation, whether it will be victory or defeat. Immediately engage the help of the Greater One who lives in you by praying Psalm 141:3: 

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by The WORD of God. Now, throw 1 John 4:4 in there, and shout in the devil’s face: “THE GREATER ONE LIVES IN ME! I CANNOT BE DEFEATED, AND I WILL NEVER QUIT!”

Your confession of faith is your combine and the power of the Holy Spirit, the mighty Engine bringing your words to pass. You will hear, “Daughter, or son, your faith has made you whole.”

Our harvesting tools are the words of our mouths, but only if we refuse to yield to the pressure. It ain’t over till it’s over! We don’t play nine-inning games. We play until we win! It’s our bat and our ball. Our heavenly Father is the Umpire. Read the back of the Book: We win!

1 Corinthians 15:34; 2 Corinthians 5:21: 

Awake to righteousness, and sin not.” The lack of knowledge of righteousness is a huge hindrance to faith. But a lack of awareness of righteousness is even worse. That verse did not say, “Awake to holiness, and sin not.” Righteousness and holiness are two different things. You can grow in holiness, but the moment you received Jesus as your Savior and LORD, you were MADE the righteousness of God.

Righteousness is the ability to come boldly to the throne of grace and stand, or even sit, in the presence of a holy, sinless God without a sense of guilt or shame. After being made sin for us, Jesus went to hell and suffered our penalty. Then, in the midst of that awful pit of suffering, The WORD of the Almighty God broke through, and Jesus became the first BORN FROM THE DEAD—BORN from sin to righteousness by The WORD of righteousness.

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by The WORD of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” Most believers never grow beyond that, and that’s tragic! Spiritual growth is different from natural growth. Growth of the physical body is built into natural DNA, but that’s not the case with spiritual growth. 

There are five basic training steps toward maturity that I want to share with you. As with any kind of training, you start with the simple and, with practice, your spirit will begin to grow.

Step No. 1 is: Meditate in God’s WORD.

Step No. 2 is: Become a doer of The WORD.

Step No. 3 is: Put The WORD of GOD first place in your life.

Step No. 4 is: Obey the voice of your spirit.

Step No.5 is: Do what God says.
