Harness The Law of Faith

Beloved, catch this important revelation, and come to understand how things work in the spiritual realm. There are spiritual laws in place in this world, just as there are natural (or physical) laws. There is the law of sin and death, and there is the law of the Spirit of life or the Law of the Holy Spirit -- (see Romans 8:2). As believers, the Bible says we have been delivered or made free from the law of sin and death, and are now under the law of the Spirit of life (the Spirit of life being the Holy Spirit). We are led by the Spirit (see Romans 8:14). Today, all believers are to live and walk by faith and follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Beloved, there is such a thing as THE LAW OF FAITH. (see Romans 3:27). The Bible says,

"Where is boasting then? It is excluded. BY WHAT LAW? Of works? No, but by THE LAW OF FAITH." (Romans 3:27 NKJV).

"But what does it say? “The word is near you, IN YOUR MOUTH and IN YOUR HEART ” (that is, the WORD OF FAITH which we preach):" (Romans 10:8 NKJV).

"And since we have THE SAME SPIRIT OF FAITH, according to what is written, “I BELIEVED AND THEREFORE I SPOKE,” we also BELIEVE AND THEREFORE SPEAK" (2 CORINTHIANS 4:13 NKJV).

All of these verses quoted above concern the LAW OF FAITH. The LAW OF FAITH says, “BELIEVE in your heart, and then SPEAK.” (see 2 Corinthians 4:13). And whatever it is you're speaking will manifest or come into physical existence. That is how God created the world—"God, who gives life to the dead and CALLS THOSE THINGS WHICH DO NOT EXIST AS THOUGH THEY DID” (see Romans 4:17 NKJV). God created the world by the Law of Faith. In the same token, you can create your own world or chart the course of your life by harnessing the Law of Faith.

The LAW OF FAITH is always at work, whether we recognize it or not, whether we believe it or not. Indeed, THE LAW OF FAITH is at work right now whether you are aware of it or not, whether you believe it or not, just like any other law, such as THE LAW OF GRAVITY. Whether you believe in the existence and operation of the law of gravity or not doesn't change the truth that it is there and at work. If you doubt the law of gravity and thus jump off a tall building or a cliff right now (in the natural sense), you won't even arrive shattering on the ground to your death before you're convinced about the law of gravity. And so, in the natural sense, if you believe in the existence of the Law of Gravity, you will cooperate with it, and it will work for your benefit. But if you don’t believe it, then it will work against you. There are some people who say (when it comes to spiritual laws), that if you don't believe it, it won't work for you. But that is not the entire truth. If you don't believe it, IT WILL WORK AGAINST YOU. Now, that's just the truth.

Beloved, you will live a miraculous life if you harness the law of faith. Your “normal or natural” will become somebody's “supernatural.” You can command things to happen, and they will, as you walk by the Law of Faith.

Indeed, for a miracle to come forth by your command (or your word), your heart must work in agreement with the Word spoken from your mouth. For instance, "Be healed" or “Get up and walk” will have no impact on the sick or the paralytic, unless it springs forth from faith that is in your heart. It has to be a heartfelt and faith-filled command. The mouth and the heart must work in agreement in faith. This is what the Bible means when it says, “the word is near you, IN YOUR MOUTH and IN YOUR HEART” (see Romans 10:8). It is also what the Bible means when it says, “we also BELIEVE AND THEREFORE SPEAK" (see 2 CORINTHIANS 4:13 NKJV). It is again what the Bible means when it says, “WITH THE HEART ONE BELIEVES unto righteousness, and WITH THE MOUTH confession is made UNTO SALVATION.” (see Romans 10:10 NKJV). Salvation in this context is an all-encompassing word that includes every positive thing you want to see happen in your life. If you can believe anything in your heart (based on the Word of God) and speak it with your mouth, it will happen just as you believed and spoke it. (see also Mark 9:23; Matthew 17:20). When you believe in your heart and utter a command (with no doubting), you will have the desired results.

Some people think if they say something over and over long enough, they will come to believe it, and then it will produce the desired results. But the truth is that, you have to believe it to say it. You say it because the Word of God (which is not a lie) says so, and you believe the Word. And so you don't stop confessing or saying it because you don't see a manifestation of it in the physical realm. You keep saying it (whether it manifests in the physical or not), because as far as you are concerned, what you are saying is the truth (or the reality), because the Word of God says so and you believe the Word, as opposed to whatever it is you are seeing or hearing. This is how you get the desired results in the spiritual realm.  But unfortunately, many people are like Thomas -- they want to see it first before they believe it, before they say it. Jesus said the blessed ones (or the ones who always get the desired results) are the ones who have not seen and yet have believed. (see John 20:29). The same law of faith applies in prayer. "Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, BELIEVE THAT YOU RECEIVE them, AND YOU WILL HAVE them." (Mark 11:24 NKJV). "...ask in FAITH, with NO DOUBTING, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord" (James 1:6‭-‬7 NKJV). Whatever it is you want, you have to believe in your heart first that you have it (because all things are yours -- see 1 Corinthians 3:21), then speak it or call it into (physical) existence, and believe you have received the desired results; and you will see it manifest. That is the secret, if it is a secret at all. The Bible says, “The secret of the Lord  is with those who fear Him, and He will show them His covenant.” (Psalm 25:14 NKJV).

Beloved, when it comes to healing, for example, don't say you are healed just because you think by saying it over and over you will be healed. Believe first that you are healed, and then keep saying it based on the truth of the Word of God. The Bible says, "By His stripes we are healed" (see Isaiah 53:5), and that settles it. Believe it. I believe it. And so it doesn't matter if, for instance, my head aches with the strongest ache ever recorded or experienced by man, it doesn't matter if the doctor tells me I have cancer, I am not going to change my confession to say that I am sick.  No. I'm an inhabitant of Mount Zion (see Hebrews 12:22). The Bible says, “And no inhabitant [of Zion] will say, “I am sick”; The people who dwell there will be forgiven their wickedness [their sin, their injustice, their wrongdoing]. (Isaiah 33:24 AMP). And so I won't say I am sick. I will talk to the condition or the pain, and say, "You pain, you don't belong in my body. Be gone now in Jesus' name. By His stripes I am healed." Then I will keep saying I am healed, no matter how the pain intensifies. I will confess my healing (and not the pain or sickness, if you may), because I believe the Word of God which says I am healed. I don't confess it in order that, perchance, I may believe it for it to come to pass; I confess it because I believe it has come to pass. My healing already occurred in the past. Thus Peter said,”...by whose stripes YOU WERE HEALED.” (see 1 Peter 2:24 NKJV). I was healed, and I am still healed. I own the healing. It is mine. How can I try to get what is already mine. I just have to lay hold of it or possess it, by believing and confessing it is mine. Then the Supreme Justice of the universe who enforces all spiritual laws -- the Lord God Almighty -- will enforce my healing and bring my healing into its physical manifestation, just as I have believed and confessed. Indeed when I know and believe any promise or blessing of God that is mine, and I confess it, no one can take it from me. Hallelujah! The Bible says, “all the promises of God in Him are YES, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God THROUGH US.” (2 Corinthians 1:20 NKJV). Begin to harness the law of faith, and lay hold of all the promises of God. Begin to possess your possessions. The Bible says, “See, I HAVE GIVEN YOU this land. GO IN AND TAKE POSSESSION of the land the Lord swore he would give to your fathers—to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—and to their descendants after them.” (Deuteronomy 1:8 NIV). What are you waiting for, beloved? God has spoken; just do whatever He’s telling you to do. “If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” (see Galatians 3:29 NKJV). God has already given you every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ. (see Ephesians 1:3). Your responsibility is to just possess them or lay hold of them by faith. May you assume that responsibility today. Jesus said, “IF YOU CAN BELIEVE, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE to him who believes.” (see Mark 9:23 NKJV). You are the one who believes. Remain blessed.
