       MOVE FROM BELIEVING TO FAITH...the Word for the World

       MOVE FROM BELIEVING TO FAITH.
       Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that
       we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose
       stripes ye were healed (1 Peter 2:24).
       Some Christians find themselves having a conflict between what
       the Word says and their actual experience. For example, they’ve
       read and believed our opening verse, yet they’ve battled one
       ailment after the other and now they’re asking, “What am I
       supposed to do that I’m not doing?”
       A dear lady asked me a similar question, drawing attention to 2
       Corinthians 8:9 that says Jesus was made poor that we might be
       made rich. Then she asked, “If this is true, how come so many
       Christians are still poor?” She wanted to know what could be
       done to make that scripture real in their lives.
       Here’s what you need to know: When you were born again, you were
       brought into a life of absolute prosperity, absolute health,
       strength and victory; it’s been done already. Whether or not
       you’re enjoying it is your responsibility. The Bible says,
       “...work out your own salvation...” (Philippians 2:12); meaning
       that you must live the Word of salvation. Act according to the
       Word. In Christianity, we do the Word; we’re Word practitioners.
       You must personalise the Word for yourself and act accordingly.
       You’re the one to make the Word real in your life. You’re the
       one to subdue the circumstances around you. You’re the one to
       subdue the forces that come against you and the symptoms that
       try to attack you. You’re the one to use the Word to effect
       changes.
       Things won’t change by themselves; they won’t change because you
       believe. Believing isn’t enough; to effect the change you need
       in any area of your life, you must go from believing to faith!
       You must fight the good fight of faith. The fight of faith is
       when you consciously live according to the Word of God,
       irrespective of the circumstances around you and what your
       senses tell you. It’s when you insist on the Word and hold on to
       it as the only reality.
       Confession
       I experience the reality of the Word of God as I meditate on,
       and live in, the Word! I’m making progress, and circumstances
       are subdued to conform to the reality of God’s Word for my good.
       The Word of God has the pre-eminence in my life, and it
       continually produces in me what it talks about, in Jesus’ Name.
       Amen.
