GOD KIND OF FAITH. For WE walk by FAITH and not by SIGHT(sensory perception) 2corr 5;7. We see two kinds of FAITH in studying the word. Faith that draws its CONCLUSIONS from confidence in GODS word like Abraham and the other faith that concludes based on what it FEELS or SEES. The THOMAS KIND of FAITH. After the lord rose from the dead,he appeared to his disciples, but THOMAS wasnt around, but when he returned and the others told him, he refused to believe, He said.. ....UNLESS I see the nail prints in his HANDS and put my hands in his side, I wil not believe jn 20:25 He was acting in human faith that believes by the SENSES. The word tells us that several days later, all the DISCIPLES were together,the doors were shut and Jesus appearred again Then Jesus said to THOMAS, Put your finger here and see my HANDS, reach out your hand and and put it into my SIDE, stop DOUBTING and BELIEVE. Thomas said to him..My LORD and my GOD..Jn 20;27-28 Was The lord glad about this? Certainly not. His words tell us so much more, GOD desires for us to TRUST him enough to ACT on his WORD believing. He said to THOMAS. Because you have seen me, you BELIEVED but BLESSED are those who have not SEEN and yet have BELIEVED..Jn 20:29 Hallelujah! I am blessed, you are too, because we dont wait to SEE before believing, no we TAKE his word for it. Many TIMES we pray for SOMETHING, may be MONEY, a CHILD, an ACCOMODATION, a HEALING. Gods kind of FAITH does not consider what is happening as yet in the natural to draw it conclusions..noooo! When we believe what the word says, we dont WAIT to see the ANSWERS before we step out in FAITH, We ACT on the word, we dont look to see whether we FEEL HEALED to claim we are HEALED, no we go about DECLARING and TESTIFYING that we ARE healed and we begin to take steps as the WELL PEOPLE take..hallelujah. We may not have the money as yet, but we chose the WEDDING date, print our IV cards and we just start taking steps in CONFIDENCE of his answers. That is faith, the God kind of FAITH, that sits,talks, stands and acts on nothing but the WORD of GOD. This is the confidence that we have in him,that if we ASK ANYTHING according to his will,he heareth us, And if we know that he HEARS US we know that we have the petitions we DESIRED of him. 1jn 5;14. Faith is simply ACTING in confidence on the TRUTHS of GODS word. No matter what the NEED is, GODS word is good enough for it. Dare to believe and act on the word. Keep declaring that you RECEIVED and now HAVE the healing,the money, the thing you desired and do your best to ACT in agreement with your CONFESSIONS, Because ,Faith without CORRESPONDING ACTIONS is dead.. DECLARATIONS. I am of God and I function by FAITH,I believe his word is true, I declare I am the HEALED of the Lord, I am not moved by what I see but by what I believe, I see everything working for my good,I see myself in abundance,my needs met and Gods word made alife in every facet of my life in Jesus name.
