| Speak According to the Life and Faith of God in You |

Job 22:29, Joel 3:10b, 2Corinthians 5:7, Mark 11:23
When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. *…: let the weak say, I am strong. *(For we walk by faith, not by sight:) *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.
When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. *…: let the weak say, I am strong. *(For we walk by faith, not by sight:) *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.
It is one thing to know what God's word says about you and another to believe and speak it at all times, regardless of how you feel. When our third text above references walking by faith and not by sight, it refers to our physical senses as well as our human reasoning and feelings.The best time to declare what the word of God says about you is precisely when you do not feel like declaring it. In fact, that is the best time to prove that you are not driven by your physical senses, your feelings and your human reasoning. On the contrary, those are the times to establish that you lead a superior life based on the faith of God that is on the inside of you.
People who live by sight will continually have reason to be frustrated and downcast. In Mark 11:23, Jesus declared that you shall have whatsoever you say. He did not say you shall have whatsoever you feel; so no matter how you feel, boldly declare what God says about you and you will have it. You will be tempted by your feelings not to walk by faith, but by faith overcome that temptation. Because of the life and faith of God that you have received; pursuant to your faith in Jesus, you are no longer bound and limited by the things that limit the people of this world. You are in this world but not of this world. You are from above so never be afraid to believe, speak and lead your life as someone who is from above.
ACTION POINT: Use the life and faith of God that is in you to speak and declare God's mind over every situation in your life right now.
