Faith + The Word = Power

On Sunday my Pastor preached an amazing message entitled “What Do You Say?” He talked about how we as Christians know the Word and what it says, but are we agreeing with the Word? What are we saying concerning the Word? It really made me take a look at myself and think about what I’ve been saying, and I realized that I’ve been saying more of how I feel then what the Word says about what is going on in my life. I begin to pray about this and God begin to show me that it’s even more than just saying, repeating, or confessing what the Word says. There is not necessarily power in that because we can speak things and not really believe in them or truly understand them. Sometimes we say things because we were taught to say them, or out of routine. He said to me “Faith is the power that activates the Word in your life.” It is when your faith agrees with the Word of God, then things begin to move.

We must make up our minds to stop saying what we see or how we feel, and make up our minds to say what the Word says in faith. It is imperative that we believe in what we are saying. We must believe in our hearts that the Word is absolute truth. It is that faith combined with the Word, that will activate the Word of God in our lives and we will begin to see positive change in our situations and circumstances.
