DON'T LEAVE ANYTHING UNSAID THAT GOD HAS SAID !

DON'T LEAVE ANYTHING UNSAID THAT GOD HAS SAID ! You wouldn't think that people would be this foolish, but one man said, "Well, the Bible says that God has given us all things, then I'm just taking what's mine. I'm not really stealing, I'm just taking what's mine. The apostle Paul said, "all things are yours." (1 Corinthians 3:21). So if all things are mine, I'll just go get what I want; I don't have to pay for it." That is carnal thinking ! Now, you wonder about people like that. We shouldn't have to save these things, but we do: if you are going into the ministry, you will have to deal with some people who think that way. We sometimes assume that people who go to what is called Church understand what we are saying. But don't ever assume anything. You must cover every avenue. Say it so many ways they can't miss it cover all areas, and repeat what you covered. Don't leave anything unsaid that God has said. Now, faith is the substance of things, it is the evidence of things not seen. You use your faith on something you don't see. Let me give you a simple illustration. Let's use a clear plastic or Plexiglas podium as an example. The person who built it didn't create it. It was made of soybeans, are petroleum, and other substance. Well, the podium existes. It is in the natural realm. We can see it. It's clear, so it's a little hard to see sometimes, but it is in the natural realm. I don't have to use my faith to believe it's there. I can look away and still touch it. When I slap it, I can hear it. By the realm of the five senses I know it's there. There is no need for me to use my faith to believe it's there. Why would I want to use my faith, when I can see it ? It's in the natural realm. I know it's there, you know it's there. Everyone who sees it knows it's there. There is no need to use faith on it. GOD DOES NO--CREDIT BUSINESS: You and I are supposed to use faith on things you and I can't see; things which are not manifested in the realm of the natural. But somebody may say, "I'm going to believe it when I see it." But God doesn't do any credit business. You have to believe it first. You have to pay cash "up front" to get things from God. And your cash is the word of faith ! You have to believe before you see it with the natural eye. That's what faith is about. Faith is the title deed. In other words, faith is of the same value as the things hoped for. Faith is seeing in the Spirit what the Word promised, when it is not yet manifested in the natural. "Therefore I say unto you, what things soever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them." (Mark 11:24)
