Did you know that you cannot operate in faith from your mind?
That's why you can have FAITH in your HEART while you still have some DOUBT in your BRAIN.
That's why we, too, can say, "Lord, I DO BELIEVE, help my UNBELIEF." (Mark 9:24)
Faith doesn't make sense to your physical brain because it can only appreciate logic and what our five senses tell it.
If you've been feeding your faith with the Word of God, it sometimes takes a while of putting it in consistently in order for it to eventually drop down and register in your heart.
"So, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of Christ." (Romans 10:17)
So, we don't pray for more faith, but we build up our spirit man in faith by taking in the Word through our ears.
That's where faith operates.
Because it's of the heart or your spirit man; it bypasses the mind.
Hasn't God made us so wonderfully?!
Our mind and our physical body don't have to be a detriment to us.
God has made accommodations for every part of us.
And faith without works is dead. (James 2:26)
There will definitely be some work required to get faith in our hearts, but it can be a joyous work.
God has authorized us not to be moved by what we SEE or FEEL, but only by what we BELIEVE. (Mark 5:36)
Not that we ignore those parts of us completely; we should attend to them, but then we can shift into the FLOW OF FAITH.
It's what we were made for, because it's of the spirit and in our truest sense we ARE a SPIRIT, we live in a BODY, and we have a SOUL (made up of our mind, will, and emotions).
Once we have faith built up we can and must release it with our words.
This is why everywhere Jesus went, even if it was completely obvious to the five senses what a person coming to Him might have need of, He asked them what they wanted so they would open their mouth and release what they believed, "Lord, I want to regain my sight." (Luke 18:41)
He is always a perfect gentleman and never forces anything on anyone, even when it's something that will benefit them. He will not violate the Law of Faith that He has established. (Romans 3:27)
Jesus spoke to the wind and waves! We, too, are going to have to speak to EVERY SINGLE THING that is out of place in our lives! Faith comes by hearing, but it does not operate by hearing, it operates by SAYING!!!
In other words, YOUR MIRACLE IS IN YOUR MOUTH!
Take some time each day to declare by faith what you are believing for. It gives God and His power access to your situation. The Holy Spirit loves to perform God's promises. Feed on the Word of God daily! Find scriptures that speak about your situation and meditate on them until you get so full that they overflow. Then open your mouth wide and speak those promises out loud. Release your faith today and trust God that He is working! ~Be Blessed, Jenny xoxo
