Speak the Word
God's Word is how we get in contact with God
Scripture - Matthew 8:5-7
Jesus said, "I will come and heal him"
God wants to come to you!
Speak the Word Only!!!
God wants you to say what he says and do what he does
Great faith is the goal!
The more faith that you have, the more you can believe
Say what God says on a continual basis and things will start happening
Get this in your heart
If you say what God says, it will come to you
Scripture - John 15:7 If you abide in me and my words abide in you....
You put a demand on what is already in you (what is in you...the Word of God should be in you)
God's word must be in within you
In this process you will go step by step...you don't skip levels
Scripture Romans 4 (Read entire chapter for reference)
Even Abraham had steps that he had to go through
As you go through the steps, your faith goes higher and higher
Great faith is what is required from us
Scripture - Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for...
Scripture - Hebrews 11:6 Without faith it is impossible to please God
What is the deal about faith?
Faith comes by hearing
If faith comes by hearing
You have to hear the Word of God on a regular basis
You are going to have to spend some time with the word of God in order to extract faith
Pull faith out of the Word of God by hearing it and saying it
Set your goal and go from there!
It is going to take great faith for you to even say what God has put in your hear to say
It pleases God when you remind him of the things that he promised!
Scripture - 2 Corinthians 1:18-19 For the promises of God are yes and amen
You may want to quit when you don't see results, but you need to meditate on the Word of God long enough until you are convinced that the Word will work for you
If you have a lot of unbelief, then you should say the Word of God more!
As you get the Word of God to come out of your mouth, you will eventually have what you say
Other notes to keep in mind...
Isaiah 54:13 Great shall be the peace of your children
Even if the devil tries to show that things are not right with your child, continue to speak the word of God over them
When you are going through things, you don't have to tell others what you are going through. Your enemies or those that don't like you can use their power over you to make the situation worse. Or they can speak something negative over you that weighs heavy on your faith. Be careful what you say if you do have to explain it to someone else. Keep your words in the line of faith...keep it positive
