How It Begins.

19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

Establishing Confidence In The Faith That Is In Your Heart

Faith is the substance of the things you are hoping for or expecting to happen.

Faith is a spiritual force. It is a miracle working power with infinite ability.

Key Scriptures (KJV)

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

11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

The Word Must Be Rooted In Your Heart.

Knowing when the Word is rooted.

The word is rooted in your heart when there is understanding and clarity. You must be able to maintain your argument or debate against any questions that satan or anyone will bring against what you are believing. 

Key Scriptures (KJV)

Click the scriptures below:

15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

Faith Operates By Spiritual Law

Faith is activated by believing the word in your heart and saying with your mouth.

Every believer must manage the spiritual force of faith by the words from their mouth. You will have whatever you believe in your heart and say with your mouth.

Key Scriptures (KJV)

Click the scriptures below:

23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

The Discipline Of Faith

Faith without the constant appropriate action is dead.

Peter stepped out of the boat,  experiencing the impossible. An inappropriate corresponding action caused him to begin to sink and cry out for help.

Key Scriptures (KJV)

Click the scriptures below:

22 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?

Faith Must Have The Opportunity To Grow & Develop To Full Maturity

Jesus taught that the Word of God is the seed, and if you have faith as a mustard seed, nothing will be impossible for you.

In life, everything must have the opportunity to grow and develop to it’s full maturity.

Key Scriptures (KJV)

Click the scriptures below:

26 And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?

8 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?

9 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.

10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

Faith Always Demands A Fight

Living by faith always demands a fight to remain confident.

Jesus taught us that there is a season of temptation, whereby satan attacks to steal your confidence in God and HIS word.

35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

You are given the Kingdom of God to get results.
