THE GOD KIND OF FAITH
The God kind of faith is the kind or dimension of faith the lord wields or exhibits. It is the faith the lord practices or employs to create or achieve whatever result. Simply put, it is the faith of God. And to buttress this, Apostle Paul opined: As it is written, i have made thee a father of many nations,before whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. Romans 4:17
The God kind of faith is that faith that calls things that do not exist into existence. It is the faith that makes unreality becomes reality. It is the faith that converts things from the spirit realm into the physical realm. It is the creative faith. It is the faith that says a thing and it comes to pass accordingly without any form of hindrance. This is the kind of faith God operates wherein whatever He says come to pass. And to this, it was said : Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God , so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Hebrews 11: 3
Now, to function in this faith brings you into the class of God. It makes you act in the creative capacity or power of God. Thus, if with God all things are possible; it follows that to him that believes (functions in the Gift of faith), all things are possible to him (mark 9:23). Hence, the gift of faith brings you into the class of God, a realm of possibilities. Jesus fully operated in this realm, hence; He was quick to say: My father worketh, hitherto i work.
He operated in His fathers class - a realm where all things are possible. Thus, this could be seen from the saga of the fig tree: And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany,he was hungry, and seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find anything thereon, and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it. And in the morning,as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. And peter calling to remembrances saith unto him master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God, For verily i say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore i say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. Mark 11:12-14,20-24
From the above scriptural induction, Jesus addressed the fig tree, having found no fruit to eat from it... no man eat of thee hereafter forever. This was a decree that manifested the next day as peter opined...Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. And to this Jesus was quick to say...Have faith in God. In the original greek translation, it is presented as "have the faith of God". It follows that for such an immediate supernatural or extraordinary result to be made possible, one has to have the faith of God. And this faith of God is the gift of faith.
See, that His father works( makes impossibilities possible), and He (Jesus) equally works - by being in His father's class (the realm of faith - possibilities); He was quick to tell His disciples and by extension, us , that we can equally function in this God class - the Gift of Faith ( a realm of possibilities), when He said...That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Dear, many a believer will say He was speaking figuratively or symbolically by referring to casting the mountain into the sea. But the simple question i have to say is that: was the tree symbolic? If it wasn't symbolic, then ; why will the mountain be symbolic? See, as there was a tree physical fig tree in Bethany, so much so, was there mountains around. Hence; He pointed out....Whosoever shall say unto this mountain...He probably pointed to one of the mountains around and said...this mountain.
Honey, do remember that there is no impossibility before the Gift of Faith or the Faith of God, as it brings you to the realm of possibilities. Hence , if such faith can dry trees within 24 hours; it can equally move mountains into the sea. Glory! Sweetie, it is not out of place to view the mountain as symbolic, such as mountainous situations; only that the faith here will now be viewed as the fruit of faith, which is developed or built over time. See, in expressing faith (as a fruit) towards mountainous situations; you may have to keep saying it or confessing it before you see the results; however, with the gift of faith; you say it once (without having to repeat it again) and the mountain is removed accordingly.
This was the dimension of faith the prophet Elisha displayed when he turned the recession in Israel into economic boom and abundance as captured in 2 kings 7:1,2,16,17. ***Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the lord; Thus saith the lord, tomorrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria. Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, behold, if the lord would make the windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said ,Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof. And the people, went out,and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD. And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate , and he died , as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.
Elisha said it once and the result followed as it was said. You too can turn things around in your life and family, you too can operate in the God class (the gift of faith). Only crave for this gift. selah
