If faith comes by hearing God's Word, doubt comes by not hearing it.

“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” Romans 10:17, NKJV

My sister, please listen to me. If faith comes by hearing God’s Word, doubt comes by not hearing it. Whatever we continue to hear on a daily basis and give ear to, that’s what we will believe as true. If you want to believe God’s Word, you have to hear it, and hear it, and hear it, and hear it until it registers in your heart and becomes a part of you. You have to soak in the truth so that you won’t receive any lies from the enemy.

My biggest weakness was knowing my identity and who I am. Because I didn’t know who I was, the enemy tried to make his own suggestions, and had me believing all sorts of things about myself. But when I grabbed hold of God’s Word and began meditating on scriptures that reveal my true identity in Christ, the enemy couldn’t get me anymore in that area. The only thing strong enough to combat a lie is truth.

James 4:7 says that we must submit to God, resist the devil and he will flee. Many of us know how to submit to God, but many don’t know how to resist the enemy. You resist the enemy by taking a stand against his lies. How do you do that? You tell him, “That is not true and I resist you in the name of Jesus.”

Being a Christian doesn’t mean you must be passive and receive whatever toxic words that are spewed out at you. It doesn’t matter if it’s a spouse, a relative or anyone else. You don’t have to receive anything that is contrary to the Word of God. You can gently, but firmly say, “No, that’s not true and I don’t receive it.”

Let the truth of God’s Word be what you hear and receive. Declare God’s words from your mouth loud enough so you can hear yourself in your ears. Reject the words of the enemy, and receive God’s words of life. Receive only what God has said about you. Mutter His words from your lips as you lay down to sleep. Think on His words throughout your day. As you do this, your faith will grow and you will become immovable.

Always remember, if faith comes by hearing God’s word, doubt comes by not hearing it.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for speaking to me in a way that I can understand it. I submit to you and I resist the enemy. I reject every lie that he has spoken in my ears, and I receive the truth of your Word. In the name of Jesus. Deepen my faith in you Lord and help me grow as I speak your words from my lips. Let your words become a part of me. In Jesusโ€™ name, Amen.

(Meditate on Psalms 33:4, Psalms 119:160, Psalms 1)

  1. Thank you Father God for delivering this word I truly needed to hear this word just morning hearing God and listening to God and knowing His Word and understanding thank you for your blessing couragement word and the name of Jesus I receive it in my heart thank you for your ministry

  2. Father God,
    My heart is heavy, very heavy for my sisters. I am sick with grief and sorrow for my sisters hurting hearts. I can’t let it go, until You bless me this morning my Lord. Bless my prayers to move mountains for the hurting souls this morning. I read yesterday’s replies and pain and there were too many hurting hearts to pray for each one individually, so I ask that You bless this prayer to pray for every hurting heart out there. I pray that You will comfort our hearts from the cold, dark night. The one that is the loneliest and the coldest is still in Your sovereign hand! Heal us in our weaknesses. You made us to be women with all of these emotions and feelings that some of us don’t know what to do with. Help us, Lord! Deliver us from the grip the enemy has on our hearts, our minds, our marriages, our friendships, our relationships with our loved ones, and on our homes. Where we have messed up, show up and show out for us, and please clean up our messes for us in our weaknesses! Your strength builds us up to be the women of God You have called us to be! We receive it in the Name of Jesus! We surrender our own wills to Yours, my Lord! We love You first. We drop our pride and we look to You for our powerful acceptance and abounding graceful blessings! We drape ourselves in humility! Help us live, love and pray with a humble heart that loves our neighbors as ourselves. Help us be kind, gentle, tender, compassionate, and merciful to everyone around us, Jesus. Especially to those who hurt us most. But let us be firm in our stance to not fight back! There is no reason to fight with a lie, is there Lord! Have You not already conquered all lies?? Is Your Truth not already supreme? Can anyone separate us from the Love of the Father! No way! Nothing! Hallelujah! I am so pumped up! Bout to jump up! Hallelujah! Jesus Understand My Pain! I JUMP because I know You do! Jesus loves me, and this I know, because the Bible tells me so! Woah!!! Slow, evened out, incessant pressure to produce in us an impending anointing that can’t be touched or stopped.. yeah! Its irrevocable! What You gone do to us who call out Your Name in sincerity! We are here wholeheartedly, praying for You to help us get through these hard days! Our marriages hang by a thread! Our relationships with our children are teeter tottering on a slippery slope of lost hope! We have lost friends and lost family members. Those we love oppose us, as we fight for their souls in our hearts of prayer. It is harder some days than others! Today, I want to lift up a prayer for my sisters who are struggling to find the word to get to Your heart. Allow me this privilege, my Lord. It is an honor to serve You first and foremost. I love You, so, so much! I love my sisters, because You taught me what real love is first. So help me now! I have been heavy without grief and mourning for my sisters, since yesterday. There were so many hurting hearts that I felt overwhelmed when I went to pray for my sisters. I need one prayer to cover the masses, my Lord! I need it, my Lord! I am wrestling for it, just like I told You I was wrestling for my marriage, as the devil tried to speak lies to my mind! But You got my mind, just like You got me! We are in need of deliverance, my Lord! And You are in the business of deliverance and healing! So, slap it on us, Lord! Make it relentlessly irrevocable! We won’t be able to stop it! It shall take us over! We shall be swept up in Your marathon race unto Your heart! We are set apart! Dancing in the moonlight, with our lighthouses shining from within our hearts, Jesus! You light up my heart with a lighthouse for hurting hearts, lost at sea, seeking answers to the questions that swirl around them in a whirlwind of questions! Look at the divine trinity for the answers you seek! Not at me! I am just a vessel, and I am sailing now on the winds of purpose! Straight to the heart of my King! Holy Spirit, loose. I receive all that I need to pray the fervent prayer building up in me! Father God, bless me and my sisters to be the wives, mothers, daughters, friends, leaders, prayer partners, and mighty women of God we are called to be. Bless our hearts. Make them tougher! Make the insides of our hearts soft and mushy, ready to be molded by You, but give us a turtle shell for our hearts, and make us move slowly in deliberate intentions to follow Your ways, and we shall finish the race ahead of the enemy, because slow and steady wins the race! Your grace is sufficient! Your power works best in weakness! Thank God for this! Thank God that You made a way for us! We, as women, need You to protect us, as we are under the authority of the men we have committed our lives and hearts to. But first, our heart and life is committed to You! Show us how to do this effectively and wholeheartedly! Show up and show out in our feet, Lord. We step out of our own shoes, and into those You have given us, sweet Jesus. We shod our feet in preparation of the gospel of peace. Help us reach the end of the race in sweet victory, my Lord. We may be moving along at a turtle’s pace, it may seem, but slow and steady wins the race, right, Daddy? I believe it! I receive it! I am achieving it! Peace in all circumstances! God, thank You for the gift of patience. Your steadfast love is the treasure I chase after! Hallelujah! In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen and amen and amen infinitely, on and on! Amen!

  4. Thank You Lord for your enlightenment of your word through our sister I trust that it will bear fruits in our hearts. Lord continue to give her wisdom so she can inspire us who need encouragement in our spiritual journey for your honor and your glory.

  5. Father God, Your word is the truth and comes straight from heaven. All the teachings and instructions are there for us to guide us into the only Truth, the only Way, the only Life there is, and that is in and through Your Son Jesus, Who died for us to reconcile us with You. Everything of this earth has been messed up because of sin which is disobedience to Your word and instructions. Your word says the vicious takes the kingdom by force! That implies that we have to stand strong against the evilpowers of the earth and not be fearful or doubtful , because then we play into the hand of the enemy and are caught in a snare. Your word is the only weapon which we can use against the enemy, it is a two edged sword which shows us on the one side where our weaknessess lie and on the other exposes the lies of the enemy. When we study Your word, the enemy can not influence our thinking with lies because our mind is then filled with the word which sets us free. Thank You for giving us everything we need to overcome this world even the Holy Spirit to give us insight into Your word. We praise You and give You all the honour You deserve for You are holy and worthy to be praised. Amen!
