FAITH AND CONFESSION !

FAITH AND CONFESSION ! They are trying to harvest the blade. This is where so many getting trouble: they don't use any common sense with faith. Sometimes intelligent people who are highly educated don't have any common sense. When they get turned onto the God kind of faith, they just seem to throw away all common sense. They say they are going to "live by faith," but they go and do foolish things, trying to have full corresponding action without manifestation. You even have ministers who are preaching and teaching this kind of worldly faith in. They say, "If I believe that my eyes are restored, I'll start wearing my glasses. That will be my corresponding action. That will prove I have faith." It may prove they can see to drive to work in the morning. Yes, they should have some corresponding action. They should speaking line with their faith. But to act as though they could see when they can't is dangerous, especially if they were driving a car to work. So their actions should be to thank and praise God for restoring their eyesight until they have the full manifestation, just as a formal word when he sees the corn came up. He would continue to water and fertilize it. That is his corresponding action. No foreman would quit watering his or her crop and say, "There It Is. I have a corn crop. No need to water it. No need to fertilize it. I'm just going to act as if it already has the full corn in the ear." If he or she did that, they would never have a harvest. The bottom line is it takes time for things to develop in this natural realm. Don't try to harvest before what you planed is mature. Wait for the full corn in the ear. THE LAW OF CORRESPONING ACTION: there must be some corresponding action to the God kind of faith. But in every individual case, whether he, financial situations, or believing for someone else, there are different action. The most common mistake people make is to have full corresponding action before they have for manifestation of what they have confessed. When they do, they go off track, and then the pastor of that brother or sister has to try to get them back on track again. We have found in (Mark 4) that the soil, the ground, is the heart of a man or woman. Jesus said, "The sower sows the word (v.14). So we know that the seed which is being used is specifically the Word of God. It could be other seeds or words. You could sow all kinds of words seed in the soil --- and many people do. Then when they see the fruit that they have produced an harvest, they ask God why he allowed this to happen to them ! But he is telling us to sow the promise of the Word of God in it. That's why the confession of God's Word is so important. Those words are seeds that you are sowing.
