DECLARATION OF FAITH - 2

July 19, 2014

As humans, we have been wired to be “realistic.” Most of us would say, “I will say it the way it is,” which is why when things are not going on fine, we say the “plain truth” that things are bad and whenever we hear preachers telling us to say what we want so that things can change, we have a very hard time comprehending.

However, like I said, before one’s world would ever change, one’s word has to change. In the book of Ezekiel 37, when the prophet was taken down to the valley of dry bones, and was asked if the bones could ever live. The man of God must have thought within himself that the bones were dead and the possibility of ever living again was pretty low, so he answered, “Lord, you are the only one that knows that.”

To teach the man of God and the rest of us the lesson that one’s word shapes one’s world, God told him to command the dry bones to live again. Sir/ma, this was a hard task for the man of God considering the deadness of the bones but he understood that the scripture says, as you have said in my ears, so will I do. So he prophesied and that same moment, bones were joined back together without no mix-up, sinews and the flesh also came on those bones and then when he commanded breath of God into them, they became living souls.

When you make faith declaration, it stands because the word of God says in matt 21:21 that, “If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.” Always remember that faith is calling those things which be not as though they were because they are.
