“and since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak.” (2 Cor 4:13)
What we don’t know we have in Christ, we are not going to believe or speak or even claim! Jesus said, “you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32). The truth is, we have the ‘spirit of faith’. What Paul is saying is, if we have the spirit of faith then we can speak faith! Are we ignorant of this truth? Paul is not talking about our head knowledge about the Bible, not our commonsense but the wisdom of God! We can also choose to speak what our mind or the wisdom of this world say. Wisdom of God is foolishness to this world. From our intellectual point of view, this wisdom won’t make any sense to us or make any sense to the world! It may sound foolish! But when we believe this wisdom we can also say : “ I believe therefore I speak.” Let us become fools before God!
Rom 10:8 says: “but what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart (that is the word of faith which we preach).” Every child of God has the ‘spirit of faith.’ The word of faith is in your mouth and in your heart. Regardless of what we see, feel or hear, start to speak what the spirit of faith in you is saying. Don’t speak negative things comes from the world or from your own understanding such as: fear, discouragement, sickness and poverty. We are justified by our own words whether we are in faith or not.
If we line our mouth with the spirit of faith in us then we will speak life and not death. We will speak words of power not destruction. We will speak healing not sickness. We speak victory not failure, success and not defeat. Know what is in you and live from there. WE HAVE THE SPIRIT OF FAITH. We believe therefore we speak faith not unbelief or doubt. Be determined to live by this truth. We walk in the light of this truth. We ALWAYS have victory in Christ Jesus. Amen.
