The Faith Operation:

(Note: To read at a glance follow bold print)

       Faith comes to the heart by meditating on and speaking the Word . Meditation on the Word causes faith to be activated in the (mind) heart of the believer.  For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks (Matthew 12:34).  Faith is primarily released when the believer speaks the word of God.  Words are containers that bring forth faith  from the believer when spoken.  The Word of God spoken by a believer will manifest the power of God (1 Corinthians 2:4, Luke 11:49).  A continuous meditating on and confessing of God's word will build and release faith.  Confessing words that are contrary to the Word will produce a negative force that produces lack, doubt and fear (Matthew 12:35).  Confessing words of God produces the God kind of result (Mark 11:22-23).  I believe, and therefore have I spoken, we also believe, and therefore speak (2 Corinthians 4:13).  Confessing the word causes Faith to come to you by your hearing of the confessed word from God coming through your mouth (Romans 10:17).  I use this same principle to build my faith.  Meditate and say what God has said about an issue until you have entered the rest of God: believing (Hebrews 4:11-12).   Because faith comes by hearing, the mind begins to believe the mouth and the heart and then begins to relay the thoughts that the human spirit receives from the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:10-12).  As this process continues the mind becomes a weigh station for the body to receive from the spirit.  Faith to act on the word of God is produce in the continual process of bombarding the mind with what God's Word says about an issue (Philippians 4:8-9).  I believe that the mind is soon filled with the word and the confession begins to take on reality (Proverbs 22:17-18).  You will believe God.  You are being renewed in the spirit of your mind (Ephesians 4:23), and being transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you can prove what is that good, acceptable and perfect will of God (Roman 12:2).  Reasoning with the Word of God (Isaiah 1:18) causes faith to be built in you causing you to become aware of the ability to operate like God (Colossians 1:26-28).   This process enables you to become so much like God that the word (Colossians 3:2-3) begins to take the place of the issues.  Your will becomes the Father's will and you will began to speak the Word into the issues (Luke 17:6, Romans 10:6).  Knowing that no Word from God shall be void of power, the word spoken by the believer will accomplish (in the issue) that which was spoken (Isaiah 55:10-11).  This is Sonship at its best:  A faith relationship with the Father, Son and Holy Ghost that makes the unseen real (John 14:21).  You are now spiritual minded: thinking and acting like God.  Expecting to overcome keeps the faith activated against the issue until the desired result is accomplished (Luke 21:19).   Now I understand the faith operation (1 John 5:20).  Pray:  Thank you Father in the name of Jesus for making this word real in my life (2 Corinthians 2:14)
