Today's "Faith Food" by Kenneth E. Hagin is another of those foundational teachings that are essential to walking in the fullness of the Word of God and our Covenant with Him!
"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth" (John 17:17).
The crises of life come to all of us. If you do not know how to act on God's Word when a crisis comes, you will be at a disadvantage. No matter what the problem is, God's Word has something to say about it. God's Word has the answer. Find out what the Word says, and act like it's true!
When someone asks the question, "What in the world are we going to do now?" Just smile and answer, "We're going to act like the Bible is true!" Many people mentally agree that the Bible is true, but that's not enough. You must act like the Bible is true! If you know God's Word is true, and you act like it is, then it will become real in your life. You will bring God on the scene in your life!
Confession: God's Word is truth. I act like God's Word is true. I act like First John 4:4 is true. I act like Matthew 6:25-34 is true. I act like Hebrews 13:5-6 is true. I act like Philippians 4:19 is true. I act like Matthew 8:17 and First Peter 2:24 are true. I act like all the "in Him" scriptures are true. I act like it, and they are a reality in my life!
It is so vitally important that we KNOW what the Word of God has to say about each and every situation that we face! 1 John 5:14-15 tells us this:
14 And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us. 15 And if (since) we [positively] know that He listens to us in whatever we ask, we also know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted us as our present possessions] the requests made of Him.
God's Word IS His will! When we find out what the Word has to say, then we can KNOW the will of God, ask according to that will, and then KNOW beyond doubt that we HAVE what we have asked for ! AMEN! Get to know what belongs to you and then TAKE it by force (Matthew 11:12 AMP)! From God? NO! From the enemy who has either stolen it or blinded our eyes to it! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Say The Word":
Shalom in Him!
