Jesus replied: I tell you the truth, if you have faith & do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain: Go, throw yourself into the sea, & it will be done. 22). If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. (Mathew 21:21-22).  Both verses are talking about faith. They are bringing out two aspects: 1. SPEAKING the Word of God in faith, & 2. PRAYING His will in faith. What is faith? It's all about believing God & His Word in total. You take God at His Word. You do not know how it will happen, but you are fully convinced, fully persuaded that God will fulfil His promises. You believe that God is able to do what He said in His Word that He would do. Faith is always toward God or in Jesus Christ. How does faith come? It comes by hearing the Word of God or the message of Christ. To hear in this context also means to act upon the Word. Faith without works or action is dead. Faith connects us to God. Faith pleases God. Faith influences God to ACT. Faith must be LIVED by. Faith must be CONFESSED. Your faith can only go as HIGH as the level of your confession. We BELIEVE the Word & SPEAK it. Faith is the basis of the Kingdom of God. It is the CURRENCY of the Kingdom of God. Without faith, you cannot receive anything from God.  We are saved by grace through faith. We are made righteous by faith. God credits our faith as righteousness.  We receive healing by faith. We live by faith & not by sight, senses, feelings or logic. LOGIC has NO place in the Kingdom of God but faith. There is a kind of faith that God wants us to have: Faith that expresses itself through LOVE. God is love. As His children we must take after His nature & be loving. If we are UNLOVING, we will be under satanic oppression or DEMONIC influences, please take note. In verse 21 we see that Jesus did not make a prayer for the fig tree not to bear fruit again. Like Jesus, sometimes we do not pray, we just SPEAK the Word in faith & it will be done. God honors faith the most. But on condition that you do not doubt & you live an UPRIGHT life in Christ Jesus. In most times we PRAY His will in faith. Fear not, doubt not, only believe. What you say will be done. What you decide upon will be done. (Job 22:28-30). When you pray the Word or His will in faith, your prayers will be answered. Thank you Jesus. Good morning Holy Spirit. Prayer: Father, you have given each a measure of faith. I pray that you develop it further in Jesus name. Strengthen our faith as we hear the Word, read it, study it, memorize it, meditate on it & obey it. In Jesus name, Amen. Peace be with you

 This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds & write them on their hearts. I will be their God, & they will be My people. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying: Know the Lord, because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest. (Hebrews 8:10-11). If our hearts are not changed, following God's rules will be unpleasant & difficult.  We will rebel against being told how to live the Christian way. The Holy Spirit, however, gives us new desires, helping us wanting to obey God. With new hearts, hearts of flesh & not hearts of stone, we will find that serving God is our greatest joy. Under God's new covenant, God's law is inside us & not outside, ie, on a tablet of stone. No, it's written in our hearts. It is no longer an external set of rules & principles. The Holy Spirit reminds us of Christ's words, activates our ...

 The Lord will punish with His sword, His fierce, great & powerful sword. Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent: He will slay the monster of the sea. (Isaiah 27: 1). This chapter is about deliverance of Israel. God has a day in which He is going to judge all of us in regards to sin & righteousness. Some may say: we have been hearing about judgement since we were young, we do not think that this is true. Let me answer you this way: it is written: The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but everyone to come to REPENTANCE. The day of the Lord will come like a thief. I urge you all: Once connected to God through Christ, stay connected, so that you will be ready all the time. How do we prepare on a personal level? Read or study His Word daily, digest it, internalize it, obey its principles & pass it on to others so that they too may be saved & delivered as we are. ...
