Claiming God's Promises

     Scriptural faith is a condition of the heart, not the mind.  It is in the present, not the future.  It produces a postive change in our behavior and experience.  It is based solely on God's word, and accepts the testimony of the senses only when it agrees with the testimony of God's word.  It is expressed by confession with the mouth.

     Faith of this kind is the only basis of righteousness acceptable to God, and it must direct and control the entire course of the believer's life.

Claiming God's Promises:
1.  Locate promise that fits your particular need
2.  Meet all conditions attached to that particular promise
3.  Claim the fulfillment of the promise by positive active faith.

Look What the God of Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Issac & Elizabeth has done!!
-Protected me when I was 8 hours old
-provided oxygen and protected my brain when I was 15 months old and again did not allow me to die while I was struggling to breath
-Protected me through everytime I went under anesthetic for both minor and major surgeries.  Too many times to count
-God kept my family together and in His sight
-He remembered me as a teen and allowed me to stray on my own will and then graciously said "that is enough" by opening up my spiritual eyes to the spirit realm.  After seeing the dark spirits in my room and speaking against them I knew following God was an active choice each day.
-God presents blessings and curses.  Life and death.  Now choose life so that you may live the abundant life.
-He choses a great husband for me.  He is willing to be corrected and be brought back to God's word by a woman.  Always faithful to me.  Open to the spirit working with great measure in his life.
