One of the confessions that we make at The Spoken Word Church is this: "God is 100% able, and He is even MORE willing, so He is at least 100% willing!" How can we say that? Jesus said THIS in John 10:10:
10 The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). AMP
And THIS in 3 John 2:
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. KJV
HE desires that YOU prosper in every area of your life and walk in total health and well-being. Then He tells us how to do it: prosper our souls! That means to study the Word of God until the Word of God gets IN you! Then faith will come and your faith will get those things for you. What a wonderful, powerful, loving and just God we serve! One of my very favorite testimonies of the greatness of our God is found in Matthew 15:22-28:
22 And behold, a woman who was a Canaanite from that district came out and, with a [loud, troublesomely urgent] cry, begged, Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is miserably and distressingly and cruelly possessed by a demon! 23 But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came and implored Him, saying, Send her away, for she is crying out after us. 24 He answered, I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 25 But she came and, kneeling, worshiped Him and kept praying, Lord, help me! 26 And He answered, It is not right (proper, becoming, or fair) to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs. 27 She said, Yes, Lord, yet even the little pups (little whelps) eat the crumbs that fall from their [young] masters’ table. 28 Then Jesus answered her, O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you wish. And her daughter was cured from that moment.
This woman had absolutely no right to demand anything of Jesus, but her faith in His ability was so very strong that she believed that even a little speck of His power would be enough! How does YOUR faith compare? I REALLY had to work on MINE after understanding of this verse came to me! OUR God IS God and He is GOOD! ALL THE TIME! Amen!
