Your Title Deed


The evidence of ownership

How do you provide proof of ownership of your home? You exhibit your [deed] as evidence thereof. Faith is our title deed to our healing. Jesus said over and over again; “He that believeth, hath.” In my Bible (NKJV), Hebrews 11 (a.k.a., the faith chapter) is titled;  By Faith We Understand and in verse 3 it explains; “By faith we understand that the worlds were formed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.” I interpret this to mean; we understand or receive by exhibiting our faith. Moffatt’s translation of Hebrews 11:1 reads: “Faith means that we are…convinced of what we do not see.”

Do you believe God has power to forgive you of your sins? Faith for His healing is the same as having faith for His forgiveness. Believe…on the authority of God’s Word. This you can know; long before you felt forgiven you were!

By this example; if your rich uncle dies leaving all his wealth to you in his will, the moment he dies you have his wealth, even though you haven’t seen a dime of the inheritance! Applying this truth, everything in our Lord’s last will and testament is already ours by virtue of the death of Jesus. Faith allows us to have what is already ours.

We have forgiveness before we feel we have it. Healing is the same as forgiveness. Again, Jesus said we are to believe we “have received” our healing at the same time we pray for it, before we see it or feel it. In Hebrews 10:35, the Holy Spirit tells us not to cast away our confidence, which has great reward. He says, “For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.”

Believe that your prayer has been granted when you pray, that you already have what you prayed for before you see it. When you do this you are exhibiting the “confidence” referred to in (1 John 5:14-15): “We know that we have the petitions we have desired of Him.”

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down. I hope you will take look at these brief messages which can be found in the "sidebar" of this blog under the heading of "BLOG ARCHIVE." There may be something in these that personally speaks to you. I pray there is. Thanks for reading my blog and may God richly bless you.

APPROVED

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). (2 Timothy 2:14-26) instructs those whom He knows are His ; and don’t we aspire to be recognized as such, to be approved by God? He tells us to avoid godless chatter (gossip), because we will become more and more ungodly. God warns that what we say can affect others, even destroying the faith of some. Heaven forbid we should say anything to do such damage!   Approved we flee the evil desires of youth we pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace. We don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments because we know they only produce quarrels. As God’s servants we mustn’t quarrel; instead we must be kind, able to teach, and be not resentful.   Approved we are to gently instruct those who oppose us, hoping God will grant them repentance and lead them to the knowledge of His truth.

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...
