Hebrews 11 

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.

3 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.

FAITH IS RIGHT NOW…

WHEN? RIGHT NOW! NOT THE BY AND BY, OR WHEN I GET THIS OR when someone SPEAKS OR TOUCHES ME.  IT IS RIGHT NOW? One must already believe and have expectation to receive what is being given. Much like the woman with the issue of blood, when she heard where Jesus was, she said to herself, “If I can only touch the hem of his garment, I will be healed”. She did and Jesus said your FAITH HAS MADE YOU WHOLE. She pressed her way into the crowd and received what she expected.

WHY? Verse 11…Sara conceived and delivered when she was past age, BECAUSE SHE JUDGED HIM FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED.

WHO PROMISED? JESUS PROMISED AND HE IS TRUTHFUL TO THE WORD (He followed the instructions of the Father in obedience. FOR HE IS THE LIVING WORD. HE SPOKE HIS FATHER’S WORD knowing that WHAT HE SPOKE WOULD MANIFEST. HE  SPENT PERSONAL ONE ON ONE TIME WITH THE FATHER AND DID ONLY WHAT HE HAD SEEN HIS FATHER DO…AND THE HOLY SPIRIT MANIFESTED THEM.

THE same HOLY SPIRIT THAT WAS THERE IN THE BEGINNING (IN GENESIS 1) HOOVERS OVER THE WORD SPOKEN AND ACTIVATES OR MANIFEST WHAT IS BEING SPOKEN.

Much like Mary who spoke “BE IT UNTO ME ACCORDING THY WORD”” and she conceived. Another interesting point in that story with Mary is that the Holy Spirit sent her to Elizabeth’s house and the baby (John the Baptist) leaped and was filled in her belly.

Which is why, it is important to guard one’s words and speak only what lines up with the Word of God wrapped your faith to receive what you are expecting…IN THIS CASE YOUR HEALING. WE SPEAK THE SCRIPTURES ABOUT HEALING WRAPPED WITH OUR FAITH EXPECTING IT TO MANIFEST IN THE NATURAL. BUT GUESS WHAT, WE TRUE BELIEVERS’S ALREADY HAVE IT. WE JUST HAVE TO RECEIVE IT BY SPEAKING AND RESISTING THE ROADBLOCKS AND HINDRANCES.  FOR THE ENEMY DOES NOT WANT US SAVED, HEALED, DELIVERED, OR WHOLE.

JESUS, himself borne our sins, sickness, diseases, pain, and grief through the beatings on the way to the Cross. HIS BLOOD not only redeem us but translated us into the Kingdom of God. Believing, receiving, and accepting what HE HAS ALREADY DONE through FAITH not works as made us a new creation. One that is saved (from the wrath of God…saved by grace), healed by his stripes, and delivered from the works of the enemy by the renewing of our minds.

By FAITH, AFTER WE HEAR WHAT GOD HAS SPOKEN AND JESUS HAS DONE, WE TOO ARE TO TAKE HIM AT HIS WORD, SPEAK WHAT HE SPOKE, AND EXPECT THE MANIFESTION, IN THIS CASE HEALING, ACTIVATED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.....
