Daily Bread - July 31, 2004

But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

I have given you persuasive faith and irreversible promises. Allow this persuasive faith to abound in you, and it shall seize the promises that I have made to you. Faith always moves forward with abounding ability and reasons to believe my promises. Faith is speaking. It will convince you to believe. You have seen faith on trial many times. Invest in the faith of Jesus Christ, and you will never be a loser, neither will you be a spiritual pauper in this age where faith can hardly be found. When I return, will I find faith on the earth?

Invest in faith. Allow love to manage your life, and you will have a management that does not have to be persuaded of the truth of my word. My word has gone out of my mouth, and it will not return unto me void. What advantage do you have in doubting my promises?

My promises are not schemes sent forth into your hearing. Have faith in the promiser and then will you be assured of receiving the promises. You must be persuaded by the promises made to you, and embrace them with a heart filled with confidence. Open your mouth, and allow the Rhema of God to speak unto you then will you hear a persuasive testimony that will convince you to trust me. The adversary has attempted to persuade you to make purchases at the table of unbelief. Be not deterred from the table of faith. Adopt a belief in me that will not be changed by the influences of other people's double minds. Listen no longer to the negative campaigns that are ushered from unstable souls. Listen to the constant efforts of faith and love, and you will be fully persuaded of unfailing promises. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. It is not from the voice of opinion, neither is it from the voice of reasoning. Faith is from the voice of persuasive and prevailing love. Hear it today. My word has gone forth, and the author of the word will cause you to receive the promises made unto you. Be not swayed to doubt, neither be influenced to seek the approval of another's vain promises. You will reap the fruit of the promises. Simply do not faint.

Amos 3: 7 - 8

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
