ABC's of Faith (10) - THANKSGIVING
AFTER the Prayer of Faith, we must RELEASE our faith by THANKSGIVING. There are 2 kinds of Thanksgiving: (1) based on the manifestation and (2) based on the promise, before you see anything. We show from Bible examples how this keeps God's Power active in bringing the promise to pass.

The Power of Pentecost - Hilary Walker
The Holy Spirit was given to the Church at Pentecost empowering us to PRAY through the gift of speaking in tongues (Acts 2:1-4). The Spirit is our Divine Helper, helping us to pray God' will (Romans 8:26-27), speaking mysteries to God, by-passing the limitations of our minds (1Corinthians 14:1-14).

ABC's of Faith (13) - Confessing the Word (3)
There are 2 stages to receiving a promise from God: (1) BELIEVE you RECEIVE it in prayer (Mark 11:24), and (2) SPEAK it (v23), calling it forth into manifestation (Romans 4:17). We see how Abraham and Sarah operated in this kind of faith in receiving the supernatural promise of Isaac.

ABC's of Faith (7) - The Prayer of Faith
Learn how to pray the Prayer of Faith, believing you receive what God has given when you pray (Mark 11:24, Hebr 4:16, jam 1:5). 1John 5:14-15 reveals we need the CONFIDENCE: (1) that what we are asking for is: “according to His Will (Word)”, and (2) that He gives it to us immediately upon request.

ABC's of Faith (12) - Confessing the Word (2)
There are 2 STAGES to the OPERATION of FAITH: (1) BELIEVE you RECEIVE it into your heart, (2) SPEAK it out into manifestation (Romans 10:8-10). We see this from the teaching of Jesus in Mark 11:22-25, emphasising that it is essential to walk in fellowship (forgiveness) for our faith to work.

ABC's of Faith (11) - Confessing the Word (1)
When we receive and TRUST God's Word we have FAITH in our heart, but we must also RELEASE it. We do this first by our WORDS or CONFESSION of FAITH. The spirit of faith (1) BELIEVES and (2) SPEAKS the Word, just as God did when He called the universe into manifestation (Romans 4:17).

ABC's of Faith (9) - How to Receive from God by Faith
We receive Salvation, forgiveness, wisdom and healing from God through the Prayer of Faith. Having received the Seed (Word) by faith there is then a process where it grows to full manifestation (as in a pregnancy). In this time we must guard our heart (spiritual womb) from unbelief by speaking the Word.

ABC's of FAITH (2) - What Faith is.
FAITH looks to GOD and His GRACE as the SOURCE. It is an ATTITUDE of the heart, NOT an ACT. But it will result in action. It has 3 necessary ingredients: K.A.T: Knowledge (mind) - Assent (emotion) - TRUST (will) - Hebrews 11:13. FAITH is BELIEVING the Word, and TRUSTING the One who gave it.

The Woman with the Issue of Blood - Hilary Walker
The healing of the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5 is perhaps the best example in the Bible that shows us how to receive the healing power of Christ. Hilary explains the 4 Steps of Faith that she took to receive her miracle: (1) She SAID it. (2) She DID it. (3) She RECEIVED it. (4) She TOLD it.

ABC's of Faith (4) - How Faith Comes (1)
As faith is so important we must know how to obtain, cultivate and develop it, so it increases & grows. We study the process whereby faith is formed in the heart. Faith (spiritual strength) is the Gift of God (Eph 2:8), coming by hearing His Word of Faith, our spiritual food (Rom 10:17, Matt 4:4, Hebr 11:1).
