Love you all, praying for you,
 
Have you ever thought of some things you gotta have?  That you can’t live without? Maybe your favorite pair of jeans, your favorite eye-liner, your teddy bear, your expresso machine?  God says there are some things you gotta have, don’t leave home without it.  Here’s one… Faith.  What’s so important about faith?  First what is it?  God says faith is certainty, being sure of what you hope for, and certain of what you do not see.  God commends people for it.  It’s not only believing that what God says is true, but acting like what God says is true.  It’s one of the big three… Faith, Hope, and Love.  Faith speaks – your faith is a what you speak and what you do.  It counts as righteousness.  It’s not what makes you righteous.  You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus – He makes you righteous… but faith is righteousness in action. And what you say and what you do – is faith in action.  You can’t have faith without doing something.  James said your works prove your faith, you can’t have the first without the second.  Faith changes everything – what you say, what you do, how you think, and how you treat others.  You can’t please God without it.  It’s not something you need, you already have it, God gave it to you at birth.  It’s just small or large depending on how much you use it.  It comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.  Whether He speaks in your spirit, or through the pages of scripture, the more you say what He says, the more your faith grows.  Every time you pray in the spirit, you’re growing it.  Words are the key to faith.  If you believe – you speak.  If the Word is near you and in your mouth, it’s in your heart, and from the overflow of your heart – your mouth speaks.  Faith speaks.  Jesus said on several occasions – according to your faith – it will be done for you.  It’s one of the fruits of the Spirit – if you’re walking in the spirit – you will walk in faith.  It doesn’t have to see something – to believe it.  It’s evidence in and of itself.  It’s based on God and what God said, or it’s misplaced faith.  I can hope to win the lotto, even have faith for it, but that doesn’t mean it will happen.  Faith for something God didn’t say or promise, won’t make it happen.  God said you have not because you ask not, and when you do ask, you just ask to spend it on your own pleasures – this is friendship with the world – and makes you God’s enemy, not his friend.  It expresses itself through love – obeying God, and preferring others.  Grace comes with it, it’s a shield that protects you, God pours it out abundantly on you, it’s what justifies you and gives you access to His grace.  It gives understanding, it results in action, it works, it grows more and more, and it only takes a little to move mountains.   Praying that you will review the PRISM Topic – Faith.  It is just straight Word of God that will build your faith.  It’s an investment in what pleases God.  So what are you hoping for?  Faith is the evidence of it.  Is it what God wants you to hope for?  Is it what God wants you to have faith for?  Praying that you will ask God what to hope for, and have faith for in this season.  Praying that your faith is growing, that you are reading, saying, hearing, believing, so you grow in the faith God has given you.  Praying that you will know what He’s given you that faith for, that you are praying in the Spirit, so you grow in your understanding.  Pray in the Spirit and you will walk in the Spirit.  Praying that you will keep coming back to PRISM – those five things you can do every day in God’s Word - because when you do, and speak it from your own mouth it will get into your heart, that you overcome with – it’s what helps you go from victory to victory.  You have faith – God said He gave it to you.  It’s all you need, and it strengthens with use.       
 
Love you all,
dad
