Now faith is the substance of things hope for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1).
The gospel of our
Lord Jesus is a message of faith. The reason some people have problem with
their faith is that they don’t know what faith really is. Contrary to what some
people think, faith isn’t difficult to understand. The fundamental attribute of
faith is that it is a possessor. Faith is a possessor. It is not trying to get
God to do something. Faith doesn’t ask why it didn’t get the answer to a prayer
for faith always gets answers to prayer. Someone once said, “I know that I have
faith, but I don’t understand why I haven’t been healed.” That’s not faith. Faith
will never say, “I don’t understand why I’m not healed,” for faith would have
taken possession of its healing!
As long as you’re still saying, “I don’t know why…,” it means you’re still struggling with your believing. Faith, on the contrary, is a possessor. Faith doesn’t say, “I’m waiting for the manifestation of what I prayed about.” No! Faith lives in it. It has taken possession of whatever it desires. This is why the Bible says that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of the unseen. In other word, it’s evidence of that which isn’t real to the physical senses.
God told Abraham he
had made him the father of many nations even though it wasn’t possible for him
to have any child. Abraham, on his part, caught the picture and began to answer
to his new name. In other words, he took possession of his unborn generations
by faith.
As long as you’re
hoping for the manifestation, you’re not in the faith arena. Therefore, take
possession of whatever you desire by faith, for all things are yours by faith. Never
forget this.
