DON'T ACT ON OTHERS FAITH ! This is where most of your corresponding actions is going to be ---- it should be acting on the Word of God and the Words of Jesus, and Jesus is the Word of God personified. Everything begins with words: the apostle John says, "In the beginning was the Word, And the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the evening with God. All things were made by him, and without him was not anything made that was made." (John- 1: 1-2-3). Sometimes people do things because someone else did it. They say, "Brother Or Sister So And so gave their car away, and they got a new Cadillac. So I'm going to give mine away, because I have an old wreck, and I'd like to have a new car." But God told brother or sister so and so to give this call way to help someone in need. He or she was acting on God's Word -- God's word specifically to him or her. Sometimes we have done things just because someone else did it. That is not a very good practice: unless God specifically told you to do it. If you give away your car on someone else's faith, you may walk for 14 months. You may not get the same manifestation they did, because you didn't do it because of the God kind of faith in the Word but faith in someone else's experience. You didn't do it to meet someone else's need. You did it to get yourself a new car --- not that there is anything wrong with you having a new car. But you didn't act on God's Word. You acted on someone's experience. It makes a difference when you do it because of the Word of God. Your corresponding action should be because of the Word, not on someone else's faith. WHEN YOU SAY YOU SOW ! Remember in Mark chapter 4 we learned that the seed is the Word, but the individual must sow it. You sow either corruptible seeds or incorruptible seeds daily. It will spring and grows up. Your part is to believe that it works, and so it; sow the incorruptible seed of the Word of God. With that in mind, let's take a look at (Mark 11:23). "For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea: and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." Now you don't have to say things daily, but the more you save them you are watering your seed that you sow whether it be corruptible seed or incorruptible seed. In order to better understand the Scripture. Let's substitute the word sow for say. "Whosoever shall sow to this mountain (the problem areas in your life (the seed), be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he soweth shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he soweth." Sometimes it helps to say things differently. We are not changing the Word of God, we are just putting it in a little different perspective and looking at it from a different angle. You can understand if a farmer sows, he is going to have "whatsoever he soweth." Nobody would misunderstand that, because it is simple. The people will argue with you about the statement Jesus name that you will have whatever you say. But the saying is the sowing. Whether you believe it or not, regardless of whether you like the way Jesus said it, it is still the truth. You can augur with it, you can fuss about it, but it's still going to work that way. Now don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying everything will happen just because you said it once. Generally speaking, you must say it all were a period of time for it to really be planted in the soil of your heart. Once the Sawyer has received the seed, that Sawyer has conceived that seed. The things you say won't really be conceived until you believe it. When you really believe it, then the results are established. Faith in the heart is the ability to conceive God's Word. Let me say that again faith in your head will not give you the ability to conceive God's word in your heart. It won't happen until it is conceive in the heart, just as a child is conceived in his mother's womb. Sometimes we must say things over and over before you really believe them. Faith cometh by hearing. This is true, whether they are positive are negative things.
