Faith

What does it mean to call things that are not?Romans 4:17 (as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did”.Faith speaks what it does not see, it calls into existence that which it desires. Are you calling for sickness or are you calling for health, do you speak words of lack of are you speaking words of abundance? You can learn how to change the circumstances in your life by calling for what does not exist. God called for light when all was darkness. Using those same principles, you can call the Light of the Word in your life. God did not say during creation ‘it is dark, dark out there’ instead He said, “light be”. Jesus did not say it is very stormy, but He said “peace, be still” – He called for what was needed, ‘peace’.  Jesus always established the end-result with His words, and you can too.The spiritual principle of calling things that are not as though are/were is throughout the Bible. Genesis 1:3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.” God said, ‘light be’ and light was and continues to be, it did not stop. Jesus said if you have faith as a tiny seed you would say to the sycamore tree ‘be planted in the sea’ and it will obey you. Jesus said that things will obey words! Luke 17:6 So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you”.People speak a lot of bad stuff and when bad things happen, they often say: ‘see I told you’, they prophesied their own defeat and yet they do not believe in it. Then they go outside and call their dog, the dog is not there so if you want the dog, you call the dog. You can’t just say the dog is not here – if you want the dog, you call the dog. You have to call for what you desire.People would say: we will always be sick or get the flu in winter; I will be poor cause my parents were poor; or my parents died young so I will die an early death – guess what – they will because they have said it, believed it, established it with their words. Then they will say they did not mean it. If you Google to find info on ‘refrigerator’ but type the incorrect spelling ‘rename’ - you will only get what you called for = ‘rename’.Act like God would act, Romans 4:17. God did not call things like He sees it, or appears to be, He is a God that brings into manifestation through the process of faith and call those things that be not as though they are. He said to Abraham in Genesis 17:4 “As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations”.This is not about positive confession, but we are talking about this is the method God has chosen to bring things into manifestation that people are praying for. God has given us a method “calling those things which do not exist as though they were”.Faith is simply to act like God if He was in my situation.Jesus came that we might have life and life more abundantly. Jesus went around doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with Him. If God was making people sick, then Jesus would have destroyed the works of His Father – it does not make any sense. The Word of God is true, and God already provided these things for us, it is not God’s will for you to suffer, to die an early death, to be sick, broke, or miserable. If you have any doubt in your mind - then you should study the Word of God and see what Jesus did when He was here on earth because He provided healing – He never said to anybody that it is not the time for his/her healing or it is the will of God for them to suffer longer.  That never happened, all these religious-talk that it is the will of God for us to be sick are wrong – they should read the Bible to understand the Person of Jesus. His Spirit is within us and will guide and show us the Scriptures so we can be convinced that those things that we desire are truly within God’s will to provide for us. The Holy Spirit will point things out to do, show us avenues to get to healing, debt, peace in the family. Listen to the Holy Spirit, read the Word of God.If you are sick –In the Name of Jesus spiritually take back your healing and what was stolen for you. In the Name of Jesus God has provided for me, “with the stripes of Jesus I am healed” and I take my health. Call it! God has no shortage of anything, He has abundance. If you feel unworthy, unloved – God has abundance of love. 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed”Jesus (asleep) in the boat with His disciples during the storm, He just spoke to the wind and the waves “peace be still” – He didn’t say the wind is going to kill us, only ‘peace be still’ and an immediate calm came, the wind and waves obeyed. You have to say it like it is – speak peace to your circumstances. Matthew 8:23 Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. 25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!” 26 But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. 27 So the men marveled, saying, “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”Jesus told the lepers to go and show themselves to the priests, they were not well yet but they stepped out by faith and called themselves whole even though they were still leapers, that action of faith - by heading to the priests – as they went they were healed. Call it as though it already exists. Luke 17:11 Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. 13 And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”14 So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed.”You are calling for wholeness, you do not call specifically about how you are going to get healed; you just call for wholeness in whatever matter it comes. It could be something that you are eating that is causing your illness, the Holy Spirit will guide and give you wisdom.  Do not call for a specific doctor or medicine that can heal you, just call for wholeness and be open for the Holy Spirit in whatever matter He brings that.You can’t just claim a certain person to be your husband – just call ‘God I desire to be married - call the right person in my life’, calling in God’s will for the right person to find you, you don’t name people. ‘I call my business prosperous’.  You call the end-result, which is life, wholeness, blessing, health, prosperity, peace!A lot of people say “I’m not sick, I’m not sick” – there is no power in that. It is not denying the symptoms but call for the wholeness. Do not say ‘I’m not broke, I’m not broke’ but call  “I am prosperous because God says if I give it will be given unto me”, or ‘I am blessed because…’, or, ‘I am the healed of the Lord because by His stripes I am healed’, 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed”. Call with the Scriptures. It is not negating the symptoms of the circumstances or that you are trying to use your faith to manipulate and say one certain way it is going to happen.  But it is available for every believer, we have the ability to walk in this power calling those things that are not, God wants it for you, He has given these promises.                                                                         # # #Quantum Faith:Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.”We have the Law of Gravity, Physics.Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity (hatred) against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.”   In other words, you cannot believe with your head with what you believe with your heart. But if you get a hold of the Law of Faith it works well because it is a Law of God.Quantum Faith: The Law of Gravity, every time you jump of the second floor you will go down and not up.Quantum Physics, what the Bible says makes sense because they operate outside the Law of Classical Physics. Jesus walked on water but Classic Physics says it is impossible you will go through the water but Jesus knew something that enable Him to walk on water, through walls, heal the sick, etc. all things that Classic Physics say is impossible. Encoded in the Bible we see examples of Quantum Physics and how that works when it comes to the Law of Faith and how faith operates.Peter walked on water, faith was there but then fearing and begins to sink. Something that has nothing to do with what he was doing cause him to sink.We have an affect on everything around us, waves, water, including everything we believe, everything you observe and look at we affect by our believe or our faith. When Peter believed he could walk on water, he looked at that and saw the possibility, entered into it. Then fear, a lower force brought him back into the Classical Laws of Physics and he began to sink.  Fear will take your faith away. The power of faith that gives substance to things hope for – to walk to Jesus. What we know from Quantum Physics is that every time something is observed it response to the observer. We can change things with our words – words and faith affect things. Mark 11:23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain (an object), ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.”  It may not happen instantly, but it will happen, words and our faith affect things. Things will respond to faith.  People cannot wrap their minds around it, because:Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.”   - the Law of Faith. Faith works in the heart and not in the head. Intellectual believe has not force or power to it but the believe in the heart is what brings about change in the things around you. If you expect good things to happen to you, the energy around you – force of faith – you are a magnet to good things. But when you are depressed, speak words of doubt, fear and unbelieve then you create another force around you that attracts the negative things to you.  We do produce energy of faith that draws the things to us that we speak. The blessing of God will overtake you.If you say you can never catch a fish, you will not catch a fish – your mouth is your problem that speak fear and unbelieve. Call the fish and believe you can catch a fish, know it, believe it in your heart. Faith creates an aura around you, and it will draw the blessing of God and the curses will run off of you.  If you believe that you are going to be successful and prosperous in life – like fishing – by the words that you speak, what you say and believe. If you believe that you are going to life in health – through out your words. Even if you do not believe it, it works.Mayo Clinic article on the Placebo affect (any new FDA approved medicine has to be compared to Placebo). Placebo works in the power of believe, sugar pills, even if they use the right color that people like it will do wonders for some in hours, no medicine can work that quick. They even get withdraw symptoms if they go off of it – this is the power of believe that supersedes all-natural thinking.Two different realms, the Law of God works because of what His Word says – Romans 4:17 (as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did”.1 Corinthians 1:27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; 28 and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are,”God spoke words and it was – the Law of Faith. This is a different area from what our minds are used to – the carnal mind. You have to study and meditate the Law of God, His Word until you believe it.How you look at things, how you believe it brings it out of the unseen realm into where they are seen. We are created in God’s image and He has given us the ability to bring things from the unseen into this realm – even removes obstacles and change things that are seen. We are creators – we create our lives; we make the decision. Words are building blocks to build your future. You can have what you say. Do not look a Classic Laws of Physics / the natural world but God’s Laws supersede the natural laws. If you can learn how to tap into the spiritual Laws that God has given, then we can change all kinds of things. If we do not believe that we can change things, then why do we pray? We pray believing that somehow that that is going to change – and prayer does work. Negative things that you say when you look at your mountain of debt or illness, like I will never get out of it – then you won’t. But if you look at it that - Jesus said you can speak to it and see it removed. The important part is that you actually believe it – we use words to program ourselves to believe.  People have been programmed from their parents, society that they will never succeed, never be healed, etc. Words are powerful but we can re-program ourselves with the Word of God to change our believes so that we can have the blessings of God overtaking us.Talk to the mountain and not about the mountain. People program themselves to make wrong decisions so what they are saying (I will never get out of debt, etc.) comes to pass. When they say these negative things, they get this picture in their minds and they see themselves as failing, losing, sick. So, they have the image, the words, the believes and it will come to pass. What happens in our life follows our believes.Mark 11:23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain (an object), ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.”                                                             Capps # # #
