Faith is a spiritual resource that comes from GOD. When you are born again, faith is imparted -- GOD'S faith. Because it is not our faith, it can encounter every trial, every circumstance, every problem, and can make us more than conquerors over every situation... because it is not *our* faith. Faith is not something you work up. It is not a demonstration of mind over matter. You cannot get faith by memorizing every scripture of faith in GOD'S Word. You cannot get faith by struggling for it any more than you can get love by struggling for it...or joy...or peace. That is why I say man has nothing in himself but that he receives it from above. When it's GOD'S faith, it never changes. It never fluctuates. It is always there. Your faith life is consistent because it is GOD'S faith... the faith of GOD... extended in you and through you... from the Vine (JESUS CHRIST) through the branches (you) to the fruit (love, joy, peace, FAITH, etc.). If the LORD GOD depended on what you call faith, your faith, He would be in terrible trouble. What gives us our confidence is the fact that He is not depending on our faith at all. He is depending on HIS FAITH flowing through us... His love flowing through us...His joy flowing through us... His peace flowing through us. That is why GOD has confidence to send us out. He knows we have the faith to accomplish the task He has given us in this Endtime Harvest Cycle. It *must* be GOD'S FAITH. This is the only POWER that does not fail.
