FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THEM !

FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THEM ! "Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear." (Hebrews 11:3). The worlds were framed by the word of God. We could say it this way: "we understand that it was through The Word that the worlds were framed by the word of God." That's the way God framed the world. It was through His Word !--- The words which he spoke. He spoke words which brought creation into existence. There was nothing created without words. All things were made by words. "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made." (John 1:1-3). Without Him-- Him who ? Him, the Word. Without the Word, nothing was made. In the beginning all creation was made by the Word. Secularism teaches humanism the Big Bang theory, they are teaching your children that evolution created mankind. Now, if the Word was with God, the Word was God. The Word is still God over every situation. When you use the Word of God the way God intended by quoting it to brain a situation under control, you will sometimes have people say, "you're just tried to act like God." Some will get upset at you. They don't like people acting like God would act. But I am not trying to be God. Although I am created in God's likeness and God's image ! I'm acting as God would act in this situation, I'm speaking to my mountains ! And they obey me. Just simply say what God says about things, regardless of the circumstance. That doesn't mean that you ignore the circumstance. I'm doing something about the circumstance. We will get into that in some of the later lessons, when we can go into more detail about it. You see, this kind of faith is the evidence of things not seen. God did not see the world when He said that, except through the eye of faith. In other words God said and God saw ! In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Then we see the recreation, the reforming of this earth when God looked out and saw darkness, and He said, "Light be !" Many of you are speaking words that you will eventually gravitate towards (Proverbs 18:20-21). "A man's bad shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. The Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." What it is death or life, whether it is in different that is negative or positive. You decide !
