Continuing on from yesterday, the Thomas kind of faith says things like: I’ll believe it when I see it. It doesn’t look like those bills are ever going to get paid. Keep on and we’ll lose our house and car. We won’t have money for groceries or anything else. We’ll wind up under a bridge. I sure hope God can do something. We sure could use the help! So, I am here to HELP YOU. God unfortunately can do very little for you because GOD WORKS THROUGH FAITH! And if you are in the example of the Thomas kind of faith examples……you don’t have any faith working! This can be proven by Matthew 12:34: “For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” Faith is of the heart, and what is in there in abundance will manifest in your speaking. That is why the enemy wants us to look at the natural circumstances and continue to talk about the negatives in them to stop our GOD KIND OF FAITH working in our lives. The Thomas kind of faith is what the devil uses to steal, kill and destroy. ABRAHAM’S FAITH IS THE FAITH GOD CAN USE TO GIVE US LIFE AND GIVE IT TO US MORE ABUNDANTLY! Remember the four principles of Abraham faith: 1. Abraham had the promise of God regarding the matter. 2. He believed the promise through his words and actions. 3.He did not consider the problem. 4. He gave glory to God before he saw the answer (in the natural). Let’s be believing Abrahams and not doubting Thomases. Let’s. meditate on the promises not the problems. BECAUSE: YOU ARE WELL ABLE IN JESUS NAME!
