Faith Comes by Hearing !

FAITH COMES BY HEARING: We talk about speaking God's Word and releasing a food call "Faith" inside us, which is the substance, or the title deed of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen. There is also a reciprocal aspect to that truth. Since there is spiritual faith and power in God's Word to release faith, there is also a spiritual force in the words of the enemy. That force is called fear, or doubt, even unbelief. God kind of faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Even so, faith in the devil comes by hearing the words of the devil, or demons and even evil spirits. Faith in the devil is called fear. I want to say that again just a little differently. . . The Faith of God is the substance or title deed of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). It is the substance of things desired, because what I hope for is what I desire. Faith is the substance of things desired, and that faith comes by hearing and hearing God's Word. I hear the promise of God, and I desire the promise of God. I speak the promise of God that releases the spiritual force in me call faith, which is the substance or title deed of the thing desired. Faith In God and His Word comes by hearing God's Word. FEAR ALSO COMES BY HEARING: fear comes by hearing the words of the enemy we call him many names. So, if hearing God's Word produces faith, hearing the devil's word produces fear or doubt and even unbelief. Just as faith is the substance of things desired, fear is the substance of things not desired. That is why you are to resist fear or doubt and unbelief like you resist the devil. Now you can understand why Job said, . . . "The thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me." (Job 3:25). When you get out there in the business world or in the ministry, you must come against fear, doubt and unbelief for Satan uses the fear and doubt and unbelief tactics. How do you overcome fear? By speaking the Word of God. Remember what Jesus said in reply to the devil's temptation to turn stones into bread? . . . "It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4) If you live by every Word of God, then it's just as true that you would die by the words of the devil. Because the Word of God produces life- giving faith. The words of the devil produces death, sickness, and disease as well as every other kind of bondage giving fear. When you are speaking words contrary to the Word of God, you are producing fear. Sometimes people don't realize they are quoting the devil. But you quote the devil when you speak things that are opposite to the Word of God. Again, have you ever wondered why Jesus' faith was so highly developed. It was because he only spoke what he heard His Father speak. (John 12:49) whether you realize it or not, those are the two sources. When we speak contrary to the Word of God, we are also releasing spiritual force out of our mouths. Those forces will get in our spirits [heart]. "Keep my commandments (, orders), and live; and the law of faith as the ample of thine eye. Binding them on the fingers, writing them [God's commandments orders] up on the table of thine heart." (Proverbs 7:2-3). "My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer." (Psalms 45:1). That's the way it works, so put your pen to work for yourself not against yourself! DON'T AGREE WITH THE ENEMY: if you speak the words of the enemy, you are writing the words of the enemy on the table of your heart. The reason some people are so filled with fear is that they believe everything they see and hear on television as well as the entertainment industry. Jesus Himself said this about the last days: Man's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken." (Luke 21:26) Jesus did not say men's hearts will fail them because of the things which are on the earth. He said men's hearts will fail them for fear and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth--- in other words, worrying and fretting over tomorrow. Jesus is not talking about heart attacks. He could be, by the law of double reference, but I cannot find in the Word of God where Jesus ever talked about the physical heart. He is talking about the spiritual part of man-- the human spirit. He's talking about "soil" that He put in you--- where the kingdom abides. Jesus is saying that the kingdom and the heart of man will fail to function properly because of fear. You may have faith when you are around the believers who believe as you do. But when you get out into the world where you are, right down to the nitty-gritty, you will have to resist fear, sickness, disease, and every other thing that the enemy has for humanity. You do that by quoting what God said, in the face of every situation and every circumstance. Even though it seems as if all hell has broken loose against you, say what God said about you. Your identity is hidden in Christ Jesus, you need to get in your Bible stop worrying about going to church. you are the church of the Lord Jesus Christ his body. It causes faith to come.
