PROJECT YOUR NEEDS AND PLAN YOUR CONFESSION : You must plan for a harvest. The problem with somebody who's trying to operate in faith is that they don't ever plan anything. They will always quote Scripture where Jesus says to take no thought for tomorrow. They say, "Well, Jesus said not to take anything thought, so I don't ever make any plans." They missed the whole point. He said to take no anxious thought; don't be anxious about things. Certainly, you should make some plans. Project where you will have a certain need, and begin confessing the promise weeks, or months, before the need arises. I did it for a trailer, and now I have the trailer it was given to me free of charge ! Start just as a former does win he prepares the soil, then plants, and fertilize. He has corresponding actions toward that harvest. It's a process. It doesn't happen overnight. You can't just say it today, and then receive it in the morning. It's not going to happen that way. When you get highly developed in faith, some things will come into manifestation more quickly. But that is not the first stage of it. That's when you are highly developed in faith. Then sometimes you will get some gifts of the spirit in manifestation in the things you are saying. But just the normal way of faith and confession is to start sowing weeks and months before the time the harvest is needed. Sometimes you find someone who has a note due at the end of the year and they start confessing the word on December 25. They waited too late. They should have started at the first of the year confessing the promises of God. In (Mark 4), Jesus tells us the stages of the manifestation. Jesus said you plant the seed by saying. Remember (Hebrews 4:2) said that the Word did not profit them, for they would not mix any faith with it. They had the promise. They knew what God said about the land. But they didn't mix faith with it. In other words they went to talking in the opposite direction of what God said. You must mix faith with God's Word. Your tongue is the mixer ! Faith works like a seed. If you don't have faith as a seed, it will not work for you. Many of you are struggling now, because of some things you said in the past. Repent, and ask God to forgive you. You must have faith as a seed. Jesus said it again in (Matthew 17:20). "If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you." If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say... Sometimes we get so involved with the mustard seed that we often miss the whole point. Jesus is not talking about the size of the seed, He is talking about faith as a seed. The life of the promise is in that seed. The seed is in the promise itself, and the way you planned it years by saying it, speaking it, proclaiming it. Again let's look at (Mark 4). "And he [Jesus] said, so is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; and should sleep, and drives night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. (Mark 4:26--27). Some say, "I don't understand how my saying it would cause it to come to pass." Well, they are very scriptural. The Bible said they would know how. It is possible to understand it, but you don't have to understand it to get it to work for you. If you just have faith enough to believe what God said and do it, it will work for you. However it does help when you understand how it works. If you just have the common sense to plant the seed of the promise of the kingdom and go to bed and get up, the seed will spring up. Jesus isn't talking about quitting your job. He is talking about doing the things you would normally do. A former plants the seed, then he goes on about his daily business. When it comes up, he doesn't know how, but he knows it works. This is God's method of seed time and harvest !
