Whose Faith are you operating in?

Galatians 2:20- I am crucified with Christ nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Many Christians are weak because they are depending upon their own faith to fight and resist the enemy. The faith that makes us Conquering Soldiers is the faith of Jesus Christ that is given to us by God. Man in his own limited ability, in his fallen human nature, is not capable of producing the faith necessary to his salvation. Faith is the gift of God that is planted in the hearts of those who acknowledge Christ as the Son of God and surrender their wills to Him. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: It is the gift of God” (Ephesians 2:8).

People of God, Faith is a supernatural force produced in the heart of man by hearing and receiving the Written Word and the Living Word, Jesus Christ, into our life. Jesus and the Word cannot be separated. Jesus is the Word. When one “hears”, receives, the word into His Spirit, he receives faith. “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Romans 10:17). The Apostle Paul did not boast in his own faith. He said, “The life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” It is Christ’s faith within us wherein we are able to stand strong and immovable in the face of trials and tribulations. It is Christ’s faith within us that becomes a powerful shield, protecting us and quenching all the fiery darts of Satan. It is Christ’s faith within us that not only makes us invulnerable to Satan’s attacks, but also has enabled us to overcome the world. (John 5:4).

In the original Greek text, the verb is in the past tense. Our faith that is in Jesus Christ is the victory that has already overcome the world. The victory has already been won! Hallelujah, Hallelujah!

Look before Jesus went to the cross, Jesus told His disciples, “be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” (Glory), He did not say, “In a few days I am going to overcome the world”; or even, I will overcome the world.” JESUS said, “I have overcome the world.” His faith was in the fact that Almighty God, Who had sent Him to earth to destroy the works of Satan, would do what He had promised to do. Carrying faith as a shield, Jesus went out into battle! He faced the pain and suffering of the cross full of faith, knowing that God was with Him (John 16:32), and had delivered all things into His hands (John 13:3). He faced death and the grave full of faith, knowing that the grave could not hold him. He knew that the Father was going to raise Him up on the third day (John 2:19). He faced Satan and defeated him full of faith, knowing that Satan would be cast out and that He would rise in triumph over death, hell and the grave (John 12:31). Jesus faced Satan and defeated him, full of faith, knowing that He was returning to the Father (John 13:3), where He was going to be highly exalted and given the Name that is above every name.

People of God, we are in a time of Major Spiritual Warfare, this is where the real Men and Women of God will be purged in the fire, and we must stand to allow the real Men and Women of GOD to take our rightful place as little God’s. Our father has given us everything on this earth; He has given us all authority. It is now time to walk in that Authority, to seek and to save the lost, to be our brother’s keeper. Jesus died for us, who are we dying for? If Jesus did it for our example (And HE DID), when are we going to be the example for the next Generation?

People are dying prematurely in the world today because Man has not stood on the Word of God and allowed faith, to operate in saving a dying world. People have been deceiving God’s creation since Adam and Eve; it is time for us to get it right for Jesus!!!!!!!

God through: Prophet Gary Becton

PEOPLE OF GOD LET'S GET IT DONE FOR JESUS!
