January 30
Hebrews 11:1

Are you hoping for something that is promised in God’s Word? 

• Maybe it's healing in your body
• Or  the finances to meet a need in your life
• Whatever your need, and there is a promise in God's Word for that need, I have good news for you.

In Greek, this word faith means assurance, a moral conviction of truthfulness of God, a belief, which is a gift of God - something that man cannot produce.

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Faith is a powerful force operating in our lives. And this verse is a written declaration by its writer stating his faith in God and His Word WILL bring on God’s promises for those things hoped for. We can take all of God’s promises throughout His Word and declare with confidence that it will come to pass because it is God speaking His promises to you. 

We all have things “hoped for” even though we do not see the manifestation of its evidence in our lives. God, however, wants us to reach out to receive that confident faith in Him that He will bring what we hope for, as promised in His Word, having that knowing down in our heart that it will come to pass.

• We must really get it down on the inside of us that faith comes progressively - upon hearing and hearing by the Word of God.
• We don't automatically have all the faith in God - it has to get down deep into our heart hearing God's voice over and over.
• We do that by hearing with our hears, speaking out with our mouth, and the more we hear our voice speaking God's truth, and it is our voice that gets down into our heart in a greater measure, God works in you to build your faith. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God, and when we speak in our own voice, His truth keeps growing deeper in our heart as we keep speaking it into faith that God will bring about His promise. As such, our declarations of God’s truth become critical to our receiving what we hope for.

The more we declare God’s truth, God take that hope to grow it into faith until one day we totally believe it WILL come to pass even though we do not see it happening in our lives. Keeping speaking God’s truth and then watch it grow into faith and then grow into confident faith.

Joshua 1:8 This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, and observe to do all that is written in it. For then you will prosper and have good success.

Can you, with the substance of  confident faith, stand on that promise for your life and declare it to ALL that it WILL, without any doubt, come to pass?. If not, keep declaring God’s promises over you continuously until you see God  manifesting His promise in your life.
