“For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you. Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; listen to my plea for grace. In the day of my trouble I call upon you, for you answer me.”
“So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.”
~~~Romans 10:17 (ESV)~~~
“So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself).”
~~~Romans 10:17 (AMPC)~~~
“Yet faith comes from listening to this Good News—the Good News about Christ.”
BIll Winston “You will prosper as your soul prospers. And, prosperity of your soul is nothing but revelation of the Word of God. You’re going to prosper as your soul prospers and the prosperity of your soul in nothing but the revelation of the Word of God. Now, I advise you to get back into those scriptures and work on prospering your soul, just work on prospering your soul. Go to scriptures that agree with what you’re believing for or whatever have you and start saying them, maybe on a daily basis and so forth, and prosper your soul. Because sometimes you can act on something by faith and the Bible calls it presumption. In other words a person never really believed it, they just did it cause I said it or did it cause I did it . Other people can believe things very quickly. And what you have to do is you have to follow the rules. One rule is you must see God as your only source. You must sow a seed and you must expect a miracle that God is going to get it to you from somewhere. And it doesn’t make any difference where it comes from if God has so designated this place or this person or this company, whatever, for it to come through, I’m okay with whatever God’s okay with. As you listen to people like me and you see some of those faith stories that I talk about and sowing and reaping so forth and so on, see those stories, this conversion will take place inside of you, it really will…that spiritual law demands faith and faith comes when you believe”.
“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”
~~~3 John 2 (KJV)~~~
“For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.”
~~~Zechariah 8:12 (KJV)~~~
“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
“Now sometimes in churches, unfortunately there is a lack of faith. Faith only comes one way, by hearing, and hearing what? the Word of God. So faith doesn’t come by emotion, faith doesn’t come sometimes when people are in churches and so forth, there’s a lot of emotion, a lot of sensation, faith doesn’t come by talking about politics and so forth, faith doesn’t even come by people trying to expound theology. You’ll find that even if you, I want to qualify that, I’m just saying that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Once you get the word of God, for you to get faith, you’re going to have to move from information to revelation. And once you move to revelation, faith cometh on that level. And so you’ll find when revelation decreases so does faith, and so God want us to go from faith to faith to faith to faith. Say amen to that” Dr. Bill Winston .
“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
“My son, be attentive to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Let them not escape from your sight; keep them within your heart. For they are life to those who find them, and healing to all their flesh.”
“The Lord bywisdom founded the earth; by understanding he established the heavens; by his knowledge the deeps broke open, and the clouds drop down the dew.”
Do you know for sure where your Bible is? Is it dust covered from lack of use? Do you open it and point to a ‘roulette’ scripture only when feeling overwhelmed by life’s circumstances?
The Bible is God’s spoken word written for our edification. The Bible is His guide book, His compass, His love letter to His children. The Bible is our spiritual food source to be nourished by on a daily basis in order to help us successfully navigate our way through the ups and downs of life.

“But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.”
~~~I Samuel 16:7 (KJV)~~~
“But the Lord said to Samuel, ‘Don’t judge by a man’s face or height, for this is not the one. I don’t make decisions the way you do! Men judge by outward appearance, but I look at a man’s thoughts and intentions.’”
