The Two kinds of Faith

John 20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, BECAUSE THOU HAST SEEN ME, THOU HAST BELIEVED: blessed are they THAT HAVE NOT SEEN, and yet HAVE BELIEVED.

There is faith that believes only what it had seen or perceived to be feasible by the senses. And there is the faith that believes without seeing.

The one is human faith, that depends on visible information; physically tangible stuff. The other is God's faith- bible faith, that depends on invisible information ; spiritually tangible stuff.

Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE THAT YE RECEIVE THEM, and YE SHALL HAVE THEM.

Jesus in this verse is telling us that the Father expects us as His children when we pray to Him, to believe right there that we have received from Him whatever it is we have asked for. He expects us to receive it in faith before we see any physical manifestations of it.

Really there can be no physical manifestation without receiving by faith first in thanksgiving.

It is actually like this because He has already provided us with this things already even before we ask of Him but will only materialize when mixed with our faith; the faith of a human.

You see God is all powerful, and in all His splendor and power He gave man this earth, and if anything is to be achieved in this earth, it most flow through a living man. So God has the power but He in His mercies gave man the sole authority to use that power on earth.

This is why Jesus when He was on earth said His disciples should pray like this, "thy[the Father's] will be done in earth, as it is in heaven", mtt 6:9-13.

You see the Father's will will never be accomplished on earth without a man enforcing it in prayer; in faith. He gave us this privileges. This is why faith is very crucial for the believer here on earth.

But this faith requires one to believe what is foolish to natural men and women. It requires one to believe what is not real to the senses; contrary to human faith.

Faith that appeals to logic is not the faith the Bible teaches. Bible faith is impossible, it is not possible to natural man. It is supernatural and requires God's help. This is why Bible faith is not of man or by man, it is a gift of God to man.

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved THROUGH FAITH; and that not of yourselves: IT[Faith, Grace] IS the gift of God:

It is evident that it takes the ability of God in man to walk by faith(Bible faith) and not by sight(human faith).


Mark 5:39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? THE DAMSEL IS NOT DEAD, BUT SLEEPETH.
40 And they laughed him to scorn...

Bible Faith speaks of what it wants to see, not what it can already see. Human faith speaks what it sees, not what it wants to see.

Human faith sees sickness in it's body and cries "I AM SICK". Bible faith sees same, but rather cries "BY HIS STRIPS I WAS HEALED, therefore I AM WELL".

God's faith, when steered in the face by failure rather declares "I AM A VICTOR, therefore I AM VICTORIOUS." And true, the victory will manifest because God's Word is TRUTH, it can not lie.

2Cor 2:14 Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS causeth us to triumph in Christ,...

Are you are you walking by faith or by sight. Are you taking sides with the Word of God or are opposed to it in you confessions, actions and life choices?

Why not dare believe in God and totally really on Him; trusting Him to be true to His Word in your life.

John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME[Jesus].

Will you dare believe His Word on this and walk in peace and sound mind, free from worries and fears?

If the Word say "let not", then you should "let not". If the Word instructs you to do something, it means you already have the ability from God to carry out such things.

We are to live the Word and not try to rationalize it in our tiny minds. Just obey, His thoughts are higher than ours. He wants to bless you more than you want for yourself.

Prov 30:5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Why not follow His Word by faith.

Yes that situation don't look like it, confess the Word. Yes, you are broke, confess your prosperity in Christ.

Get your faith in your mouth. Never get carried away by the natural, speak what you want to see in your life according to the Will of God, i.e according to His Word.

We are not helping ourselves or anyone else for that matter if we are not walking by faith in the Word.

God needs you to trust in His Word, absolutely. Yes God need you!

As all powerful as He is, He can't and will not do anything on earth without a man; without a man cooperating with His Word.

He has the Power, but He gave man the sole authority to use that Power on earth. So without a man He won't move on earth. Man is His body with which He gets things done on earth. Why don't you be among these men and women.

The opposite is also true. Satan can't do anything on earth without the influence of man. He lacks both the power and authority to do it.

You may ask, didn't Adam give him the authority he had? No, Adam didn't give him the authority. Adam gave him access to the hearts of men. So with the hearts of men in the devils hand, he could use man's authority in the earth to accomplish whatever he pleases.

But thank God we have been delivered by God through His Christ from the authority of the devil.

Col 1:13 Who[the Father] hath DELIVERED US from the power of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED US into the kingdom of his dear Son[Jesus Christ]:


We as Christians actually have all authority and power given to us over Satan and all the forces of darkness. One believer in Christ have all authority Satan and his entire forces.

So why don't we side with the Word of God, dear to trust Him and walk in the Bible faith in which we as believers in Christ are already full of in our spirit.

Yes, every single believer in Christ have the same amount of faith Christ had when He walked the earth; the very same measure.

This is true because, He never expected us to trust Him by our own faith, but by His faith own faith which He puts in us His children.

You see the faith of the new testament believer is different from the faith of those in the old testament. It is different from the Hebrew 11 hall of faith's faith. They acted in faith, but we were given faith; it was imparted into our recreated spirits. I will expound on this on later post.

Just know for now and forever that you as a believer have the very faith of Christ on your inside.

I end this post with this quip from Kenneth E. Hagin(in blessed memory), "You will never be  conqueror first and then believe you are one. No, you have to confess it first and then you get there."

Where you blesses?

Confess this: I take sides with the Word of God, therefore I do not frustrate His will and purpose for my life. I dare to live by faith and not by sight; to live not by what is I can perceive by my physical senses but by every Word that proceeds from the Word of God. I am the Word and I chose to live by the Word, for which I am.
