The believer’s wonk of faith is paid for by Bill Winston, ministry partners and viewers up next on the believer’s block of faith.
If your child is saved, they’ve got the same you do.
And the faith you have is the faith Jesus had. And the faith Jesus had is the faith God has.
That’s the same faith that created the universe. He has given you that kind of faith.
Say according to your faith, be it unto you.
Second Kings chapter four verse one.
Now they cried a certain woman or the wives or sons of the prophets to Elijah saying thy servant, my husband is dead and you know my servant, that servant did fear the Lord and that the creditors come to take him to my two sons to be all right.
Let’s look at the next verse.
So she cried now that doesn’t mean she, that cry is a cry of faith.
He’s making a demand on this prophets anointing.
He’s placing a demand and faith places the demand on God’s promises.
And that’s why when the woman with the issue of blood said, if I can just touch His, what close I shall be ho and notice what she did, she touched it.
And the Bible says, virtue flowed out of him. And then he turned around and said, who touched me?
And the person that was with him said master. You see all these people pushing on you.
He said, no, no, no, no, somebody touched me.
Now notice nobody got the virtue except that one woman say amen.
Now see, it didn’t mean that the promise wasn’t available for everybody, but it’s only released by faith.
That’s Romans chapter four and verse 16.
So I’m saying this faith thing has a lot to do with how far we’re going.
And somehow we get saved by faith and stop with faith. That’s not the idea.
The idea is you wanna stay in faith and finish in faith and that finishing in faith, you want all that God says that you’re supposed to have the best of God is not getting sick and being healed.
That is not the best, the best of God is that every virus disease and germ that touches your body dies instantly.
That’s the best of God and you, you and I can walk in there.
Ok. Second year. All right. And Elijah said to her, what shall I do for you?
Tell me what’s in your house?
And she said that handmade is not anything in the house except the pot of oil.
Now, what that oil was is the thought it’s burial oil which was worth many years wages to get that oil very, very, um valuable to her.
Then he said, go borrow the vessels abroad of all thy neighbors. Even empty vessels don’t borrow a few.
See, we’re dealing with God. Now we gotta do this bountiful thinking.
We got to get ourselves out of this shortage mentality. Don’t borrow a few.
And when you come in, shut the door upon you and your sons and you shall pour out into all those vessels and thou shalt set aside that which is full.
So she went from him and shut the door upon her and upon her sons now knows what she didn’t say.
Y’all get out of here. Go play. Mama got some business to take care of.
Now, they were gonna participate in the miracle because God wants you to pass faith on as a legacy when you’re out of here.
He wants your kid to take up where you left off going to go.
And so what happened?
So she went from him and shut the door upon her and upon her sons who brought her the vessels to her and she did what she poured out and it came to pass when the vessels were full that she said to her son.
What bring me yet a vessel? Notice the sons are participating in this move of faith.
Is that the right bunch? I’m talking to folks. We gotta look at it differently.
If your child is saved, they’ve got the same faith you do.
And the faith you have is the faith Jesus had. And the faith Jesus had is the faith God has.
That’s the same faith that created the universe he has given you that kind of faith.
Say amen.
That is faith that can raise the dead, can move the mountain so forth and so on.
Notice things are already done, but your faith has to be there to convert it from the unseen to the scene.
Ralph Lord have mercy. Help me Holy ghost. Next verse.
And it came to pass when the vessels were full that she said to her son, bring me out a vessel and he said to her, there’s not a vessel more.
And what happened to the oil? Notice the provision stopped when the demand stopped.
See, don’t try to make it easy on God, make it hard on Him.
Don’t try to make it within your ability to do it.
Anything that doesn’t measure up to God’s promise to you, then you are undone.
You gotta say, hey, wait a minute, I still have some more land to take and make up your mind that you’re gonna take that land.
Say amen to that. Now, I I’m, I’m doing something with this.
I’m making a point with this because this point really needs to be made with God’s people because what has happened many times is we’ve, we’ve transferred the world of thinking into the kingdom and, and we, we, we we, we, we got, we got brought into the kingdom, but our minds are still not transformed and we’re still thinking like we were in the world and you gotta stop thinking like that because in the, in the kingdom, God is no respecter of persons.
What he’ll do for me, he’ll do for you and what he’ll do for us, he’ll do for somebody in Africa.
What do you do? Come on now, it doesn’t make any difference. So here’s, here’s this son.
This man said, there’s a lad here, I’m still with that.
And he says here according to your faith, be it unto you. Let’s go back to first Samuel, please.
And first Samuel in chapter 17, open first Samuel chapter 17, here’s David.
Now David’s coming to the front line. It says, verse 32 I’ll just start right there.
Now, notice what happened. The giants are before them and these giants are busy tormenting them.
I mean, that’s what Satan likes to do. He likes to bring fear in your life.
Say fear or not. I don’t care how bad it looks no more fear.
I said no more fear. It’s designed to contaminate your faith and make it so it won’t work.
So David said to Saul, Saul is the king, let no man’s heart fail because of him.
A spirit that is wounded or damaged.
It’s difficult to create the force of faith to come out of it, to do what needs to be done.
Are you follow what I’m saying? And there’s a spirit called a bu site.
A spirit is a spirit.
I put it down here that it, it literally means to beat down.
You ever heard somebody say he got a beat down.
It’s an enforcer of the cast concept C A S T E where you have this group in this level and you never move out this group at that next level and they never can change levels.
This group at that level, India has a caste system but those are demons enforcing that.
So those same demons come to America to enforce racism. Yeah.
And that’s why a lot of times a certain people of a certain color can’t get out of a certain situation.
No, because they’re trying to get out without the power of God coming against the forces that are unseen, designed to keep them in there.
Don’t shout me down because I’m preaching to.
But if you can get faith in your life, that’s what the devil doesn’t want because faith can fix anything.
Faith come on. Now, when they were going from one side over to the other, here comes a storm designed to kill them, designed to sink their boat.
Why? Because they’re going from faith to what faith and now they’re going over here comes a storm.
It didn’t come up because of God’s will.
It came up because Satan was in control of systems that are designed to sink your boat.
If you don’t have faith. I don’t care how much money you got. You can’t whip Satan.
I don’t care how much uh of prestige you got, how much education you got.
Satan can fool you in a New York minute.
I’m telling you, the only thing that can beat Satan is Jesus and Jesus is in you.
Come on the holy ghost is your teacher.
He’s gonna be the one that can tell you what to do and then you release the faith and God will take care of your situation.
So I’m telling you right now, it wasn’t, it wasn’t Abraham Lincoln that got them off the cotton field.
It was their faith. I’m telling you somebody was in prayer.
Somebody has somebody come on now and God had abe to sign the paper.
But I’m telling you it wasn’t the man that got you out of it was a, you better hear what I’m talking about.
You gonna have to start in faith, stay in faith and finish in faith. Now, where is your finish?
Your finish is at the top of your game.
God has a room for you at the top and the higher you go, the more influence you’re gonna have.
See when you get to upper levels, you can drop your foot in the water and water will ripple all out over the plate.
God wants itself that if you drop your foot in New York, it’ll ripple all the way to Pennsylvania.
God wants amen to this. I don’t know what your area of expertise is.
Whether you’re an architect, whether you’re a brick layer, whether you’re a doctor, whether you’re a school teacher, I’m here to tell you, God wants you to take your mountain, whatever mountain you have.
God wants you to take it and faith works by love.
You will have to love your way to the top.
When that talk about you, you gonna have to embrace them.
When they come on falsely accuse you, you’re gonna have to say God, I’m not guilty and let God get you out of it.
I’m telling you what’s gonna happen. We are not done with what God wants us to do.
We are about to get into the best life we’ve ever had in this earth.
He didn’t come to take sides.
We came to take over, sit up have mercy.
Look, look at verse 33 look at verse 33.
And Saul said to David, thou art not able to go up against this Philistine to fight Him for thou art.
But a who you and he a man of war from his. What you?
And David said to thy servant kept my father’s sheep and there came a line in a bear and I took the line and, and took the line out of my flock.
And next thing you know, I went after him, I him, I delivered it out of his mouth.
And when he rose against me, I caught him by his beard. I smoked him and slew him.
I’m here to tell you right now. All that was a 16 year old boy. I’m saying that.
Notice what he’s doing now. He saul tried to disqualify him. You going back home, keep cheating.
You can’t do nothing here, honey.
Let me tell you when that boy tells you that I want a new bike.
He tells you that you say you got a picture of it.
He goes in and gets a picture of it.
He said, you said you don’t say uh money don’t grow on trees.
You say this, that now is this the best one you got? He said you have that, that’s $400 bike.
Ok, fine. All right. You know what to do. So you, yes, sir. He goes right in his toy box.
He get that Nintendo game that you just bought.
You stood in line for two hours to get that game for him.
He gets that goes to his friend that’s needy.
He gives it to him and you better start cleaning out that garage because that bicycle is on the way.
He’s about a youth, but he got the same faith.
And what has happened is we’ve looked at it carnally.
We’ve looked at it like people are not saved.
Get out of here kids, get out of here. Come on in here and help me believe your tuition.
The same faith, say same faith.
He said, get your boys and tell them to bring you something.
Tell them to bring it in here, go out and get to the why let them participate in it.
Here’s David. So according to your, what faith be it unto you. So what am I saying?
Now, I’m saying the enemy comes in to try to break our spirit.
How do you keep your spirit built up?
Look at Proverbs chapter four and verse 20 I gotta keep my spirit built up. My son.
Attend to my word incline thine ear to my sayings. Let them not depart from my eyes.
Keep them in the where mist of thy heart.
Do you realize you’re not supposed to say anything that God didn’t say?
You are representing the kingdom and representative of the kingdom is an ambassador and you don’t say anything your country didn’t say, say I’m on assignment and God is holding you accountable for the words you speak, say what God says, say amen to that.
So he says for they are life to those that find them and health and what to all their flesh.
One translation says they are medicine.
Now when you operate in faith, understand, once you confess something, give God time to do to to make it happen.
All right, let’s go over to that. Let’s go over to mark chapter 11 verse 12.
And on tomorrow, when they would come from Bethany, he was hungry you saw a fig tree far off having leaves.
He came to it happily, if happily he might find anything they’re on and, and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves for the time of figs was not yet.
Now I call this religion. Religion is a form of godliness, but it has no power.
Ain’t no power. You’ll see religion.
Religion talks loud, jumps up, run around the church and everything and go and go back home and nothing’s changed.
Now, I’m not talking about people that can get excited about Jesus.
My point to you is don’t let it be a form.
God don’t be trying to do something in front of people. So they’ll thank you so holy.
And you still broke marriage. Still in trouble.
Kids still running crazy sometimes practice the vocabulary of silence.
Look what it says here in verse 14 and Jesus and it said to it, no man eat fruit of you here after forever.
And who heard it? Disciples? They didn’t overhear it.
They heard him notice what he’s doing. He’s teaching why? Because he’s got to go.
My job is not to have you to always depend on me.
It’s not always to have you, have you somebody else do your praying for you.
Now, my job is to have you to have a relationship with God. You are judge.
So we go down to Jerusalem.
Does some business down there, turn over some cash registers.
Look at verse 19 and when the evening was come, they went out of the city, now they went out of the city and went back back past that tree.
But nothing happened. Who was that?
Doctor Frederick Casey Price that he had gotten hold of the words that God’s got has in the Bible on prosperity.
And he just began to grab a hold of that.
And people had him teaching those principles going from Northern California all the way down to El Secon, whatever it is all done.
He was teaching it all up and down the coast of California.
He said, but what happened is you believe in God for a new Lincoln car.
And you know, that was something in those days that, that big Lincoln.
And um and at the moment he was driving a car that had been wrecked in the front, in the back and on both sides by his daughters.
And he said he’d pull up at the church and his wife didn’t quite have the revelation yet.
So he’d pull up at the church, go in there and preach his powerful message on prosperity.
And he said, she tried to rush him out to get in the car to get away before anybody saw what they driving.
No, no. Listen, you can be saying it and not yet have it manifest but hold fast.
A confession of your faith without waiving. And that’s what a lot of people don’t understand.
So if you confess in something, they don’t see it in your life. Uh See that.
Well, you just hang on because if they don’t change it, God’s gonna be true and every man is gonna be alive.
All right.
So let’s look at the next verse 20 and in the morning as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
Peter calling for amendments and said to him, master behold the fig tree which you cursed is what with it away?
And Jesus said to them, what have faith in God?
In other words, have the God kind of what faith or as I teach, our congregation have God’s faith.
It’s not your faith. Take His righteousness, not your righteousness, take his love, not your love, take his name, not your name, take his life, not your life, take his faith, not your faith and you start using his faith, it’ll move anything.
So what does faith first deal with? Faith deals with the invisible faith?
Deals with the invisible everything God has for you is already done. Is already there?
How far out is it? It’s a membrane away, a membrane away.
It’s like when you step out of this body and your body ceases to exist.
When you get to be 100 and 20 years old, or Jesus comes first, your body cease to you.
You step out of this body, you step into the presence of Jesus, go into God.
And what am I telling you? Faith can fix anything.
How long are you slack? They go in to possess your inheritance.
Well, your days of slackness are over. So here’s David.
He’s going out to fight to battle with all his men. He comes back to his camp.
The enemy has invaded his camp. Run off with everything, including the provision and the people.
Now you are set to get back.
Both, both the people come on and the property, everything Satan stole, it comes back to you.
The Bible says over in first Corinthians 3 21 all things are yours.
Now when he says all things, he means all things from the surface to the core of this earth.
It belongs to you so much. I thought it belonged to Jesus.
It does and you are a joint heir with him.
Well, I trust that you are blessed by that powerful message.
Now, when we come in line with the will of God in our lives, there is no limit to the great things that you’ll experience in this life.
I mean, I’m a testimony to that. I just when I gave my life to the Lord, everything changed.
I mean, I mean, when you step in line with the will of God and, and give your life to Jesus Christ.
As Lord of your life, everything changes.
I mean, it’s like that marriage that took place recently between royalty and a person who uh was working in Hollywood.
Um all of a sudden everything changed.
Um that that person got a coat of arms that they designed for themselves.
They, they got a vault of jewels. I mean, you could look it up.
Um, they got a name change, I mean, uh became Duchess of something.
I mean, all of this happened because they married up, I mean, they married uh a person of royalty when you give your life to Jesus Christ, you and Jesus Christ become one.
Praised God. I mean this, this you, you come together, I mean, he, he looks as us, as us as, as his bride.
We we become a spouse to him. You know, we’re gonna have a great wedding ceremony taking place pretty soon.
But you can see how much she got just by marrying him.
And the Bible says when we come to Christ, we become joint heirs with him. Well, what does he own?
Everything? I’m taking everything in my life.
Even some of the people that I hung around with, they just kind of drifted away from my life because everything changes.
Well, the same thing happens when you make Jesus Lord of your life and I wanna give you an opportunity to do that today.
It happened to me. I got an opportunity and I took it and let me tell you everything changed my performance at my job at I B, everything change my relationships and what I felt about some people that I hadn’t forgiven everything changed.
So if you’re looking for a change, this is your time. I want you to do something.
If you know that this is you that I’m talking to. You’ve never ever publicly confessed.
Jesus is Lord of your life. I’d like you to do it today.
I wanna lead you through the same prayer that I was led through that changed my life forever.
Just say this with me. Dear Lord.
I come to you now, just as I am, you know my life and you know how I’ve lived, forgive me, Lord, I repent of my sins.
I believe Jesus Christ is the son of God. He died for my sins.
And on the third day, he was raised from the dead.
Lord Jesus, I ask you come into my heart, live your life in me and through me from now on from this day forward, I belong to you in Jesus name.
Amen. You know when two people get married, um the minister would ask, do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
And he says, I do, do you take him to be a lawfully wedded husband?
She says, I do, I now pronounce you husband and wife. And that’s the same thing that happened.
She just got connected to Jesus. Praise God. I have a book. It’s called Born Again in Spirit.
Fill this particular book I wrote myself and I can get it out to you free of charge.
It tells you a little bit about what just happened and maybe the next step in your life, uh, a good church to go to and water baptism, being filled with the holy ghost so forth and so on.
All of these things in this book.
I also have it here in the Spanish version and I have it in Polish as well.
So write or call or contact us today.
Listen, something big just happened in your life and we wanna rejoice with you. We love you.
