When you got saved , you heard of Jesus through the preaching of the gospel, and faith ignited in your  spirit that for the first time in your life you could walk out of darkness and into the LIGHT. You acted on that faith and confessed with your mouth the Lord Jesus and you were saved!!
You were given a measure of faith right then. It is in your heart[spirit] and it’s up to you to develop it just as an athlete develops muscles to do extraordinary feats. You will only be as strong as the faith you develop.

There are degrees of faith for God talks of people with no faith, little faith (remember Jesus saying, “Oh you of little faith?”) faith growing exceedingly, strong faith, and great faith. Faith speaks. Faith acts. You could call it Faith Action. Faith removes mountains (mountains speak of a kingdom) …so faith removes the kingdom of satan. So we could call faith a “demon ERADICATOR.” So it is important to use your faith and to build your faith in order to overcome for it is written…”this is the victory that overcomes the world , even our FAITH.”

Abraham was not weak in faith , but was STRONG IN FAITH GIVING GLORY TO GOD. One thing we see right away is to be strong in faith you must GIVE GLORY TO GOD. In other words you count it done by faith and thank God for the answer before you see it happen. You already saw it happen by FAITH. Faith is the substance of things hoped for , the evidence of things NOT SEEN.

One way to build your faith is to ACT on it. “Faith without works is dead being alone.” Lonely faith lies dormant and is dead. NOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND MORE WHY CHURCHES ARE DEAD AND CAN’T REPRODUCE THE MIRACLES GOD PROMISES?  THEY STOPPED OR NEVER STARTED PUTTING ACTION WITH THEIR FAITH!!  USE IT AND IT WILL GROW STRONGER WITHIN YOU.

Whatever the mountain there is in your way SPEAK to it by FAITH. Let faith do the talking. It looks impossible, but faith says what God says about it!!  ALL things are possible with God to those who believe. Faith calls those things that be not as tho’ they were. God called you a child of LIGHT before you ever were and then you were a child of light. God says you are a blessing so you are no matter how you feel. Retrain yourself to LIVE BY FAITH and NOT by the past, for FAITH in JESUS delivered you from the life of darkness and has brought you into JESUS’ marvelous LIGHT. Now it says the JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH. Not by the past. The past is OVER, DONE,FINISHED, AND UNDER YOUR GOSPEL SHOES. NOW YOUR LIFE OF FAITH IS ALL THAT MATTERS.

God called Abram, Abraham (father) when Sarah’s womb was dead being past the age of child bearing. So every time Abraham said his name he was saying, “I am a father of many nations,” when it was “impossible.”  Yet as he gave glory to God and did not stagger at the promise of god and counted God faithful there came a day when God touched Sarah’s womb and she conceived and the faith line kept going. God has always had a people of faith  to bring the miracle working power to people.  Some say they have faith…but I will show you my faith by what it does. REAL FAITH  makes REAL MIRACLES happen.

So faith is strong through giving glory to God. Faith speaks the Word of God and mountains (opposition, oppression, poverty, sickness)are REMOVED IN JESUS NAME. FAITH WILL GROW AS YOU HEAR THE WORD OF GOD. FAITH COMES BY HEARING AND HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD. FAITH IS BUILT ALSO BY PRAYING IN TONGUES OF THE HOLY GHOST!! (as read in the book of Jude)

Faith will grow as you act on it like blind Bartemaeus crying out for Mercy to Jesus casting away his beggars coat and went to Jesus. ALL action. He was totally healed and brought out of the dark world that had imprisoned him. Say the Word of God, pray the Word, and mix faith with the Word. The Word preached did not profit some not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. You can hear this Word we preach and if you just let it lay there it doesn’t do for you what it could do!! BUT  when you mix your faith with that Word it is like spiritual dynamite that blasts the daylights out of the devil.

The Word doesn’t work for those who want to try mix unbelief, doubt, or fear with the word of God. Like the “permissive will doctrine” that lets the devil run all over them because they MISTAKENLY think everything that happens was permitted by God. How about knowing the truth that will set you free?! God permitted YOU to have HIS Faith inside YOU so that YOU could tear down every stronghold of satan and ruin him by YOUR FAITH. God permitted you to have a bible and this blog so your faith would ignite and be built strong so that NO EVIL WOULD BEFALL YOU, AND A THOUSAND WOULD FALL AT YOUR SIDE AND TEN THOUSAND AT YOUR RIGHT HAND SO THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TOUCH YOU OR ANY PLAGUE EVEN COME NEAR YOU. GOD PERMITTED HIS ANGELS CAMP ALL AROUND YOU TO DELIVER YOU FROM ALL EVIL. YOU HOLD THE KEYS TO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN AND WHATEVER YOU BIND WILL BE BOUND, AND WHATEVER YOU LOOSE WILL BE LOOSED. PRAISE GOD, I THINK YOU ARE STARTING TO GET THIS. THIS IS SHOUTING GROUND MY FRIENDS. WE ARE THE HEAD AND NOT THE TAIL.  WE ARE BLESSED AND NOT CURSED.

REJOICE THAT GOD HAS BROUGHT YOU OUT WITH A MIGHTY HAND. HE HAS SET YOUR FEET ON A ROCK AND ESTABLISHED YOUR GOINGS AND PUT A NEW SONG IN YOUR MOUTH EVEN PRAISE TO OUR GOD, AND MANY SHALL SEE IT AND FEAR THE LORD. (THEY WILL STAND IN AWE OF HIM)
KEEP BUILDING YOUR FAITH, AND AS YOU ACT ON IT YOU WILL SEE THE GLORY OF GOD, NOT BEING WEAK IN FAITH, BUT BEING STRONG IN FAITH GIVING GLORY TO GOD!
