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.”

Walk Of Faith

I wonder, do you think we miss God’s purpose for our lives because we are waiting to learn more of what God has planned for us? Truth is; God isn’t required to lay it all out for us. All He must do if He has a plan for our lives is to show us how and then enable us to do it. It seems when we don’t know all the particulars, life is too perplexing. We think, “ but I need to know just what God wants me to do.” Abram (later known as Abraham) probably had thoughts just like this. God asked Abram to go somewhere he wasn’t familiar with and he most likely thought of asking God, Lord, must I go somewhere I don’t know, can’t I just stay here in Haran? However, God’s plan for Abram was far greater than anything Abram could ever imagine. Our personal feelings, vision, and human reasoning will always get in the way of our walk of faith . God teaches us to have faith in Him by placing us in positions where our feelings, vision, and common knowledge don’t work for us. Haven’t you ex...

Get Out Of Your Boat

In (Matthew 14:25) Jesus had told the disciples to get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side of the lake. The Bible says; He went up on a mountainside by Himself to pray. The wind was strong that night and the waves buffeted the small boat, tossing it to and fro. It would have been a frightening time to be out on the water; especially that late at night. The men in the boat trembled with fear, and when they saw Jesus walking out to them on the water they thought He was a ghost. Jesus assured them it was He and they should not be afraid. Peter, one of the disciples, said, “Lord, if it’s You, tell me to come to You on the water!” Jesus told him, “Come.” Peter stepped out of the boat, walked toward Jesus, but when he saw the wind; the Bible says, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Peter’s faith was strong, at first. He was walking on the top of the waves just as Jesus was, but the moment he allowed himself to think rationally instead of t...

THIS IS A SPECIAL POSTING. PLEASE READ!

In addition to my daily message today, this is something very special I believe the Lord wants me to post right now! Help Me Overcome My Unbelief! As a Christian, I believe God loves me and wants the best for me. Certainly, in His Word (Psalm 103:3 NIV) the Psalmist wrote; Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits – who forgives all your (my) sins and heals all your (my) diseases, who redeems your (my) life from the pit…. I know this, really I do! Still, there are times when I don’t see God actually doing what I expect Him to do; to save me from my trouble; to provide me with what I want; and to provide the healing release I expect. Before I became a Christian I really had a problem with faith, much less be able to cling to any promises God made to me; regardless of whether I was a Christian or not! Therefore, I understand how we can have moments of unbelief, or we can just flat out not trust what God has promised us. This is Satan at work, big time !  “Get...
