Overcoming Obstacles
Journey Into The Promised Land
You Have His Faith
When you received Jesus, you received His faith. To break through the wall of unbelief and have His supernatural faith manifested in your life, you must come to Him. There is no other Source, no other way.
Peter was among those who ran in fear as the soldiers came to the Garden of Gethsemane to arrest Jesus. As Jesus was being tried, it was Peter who denied Him three times. After Christ’s resurrection, Peter was with the other disciples hiding behind closed doors when Jesus appeared and rebuked them for their unbelief (Mark 16:14). Yet we later see Peter — this same man whose faith had wavered, who had been filled with fear and doubt — operating in the supernatural faith of God to speak the word to a lame man and command him to rise and walk in the Name of Jesus!
Then Peter said, “Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have give I thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.” (Acts 3:6-7)
It was this same man who spoke the word of faith and raised the dead:
But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, “Tabitha, arise.” And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up. (Acts 9:40)
There was such supernatural faith manifested through Peter’s life that they placed the sick in the streets so that just his shadow would fall on them and they would be healed:
Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. (Acts 5:15)
A transformation took place within Peter and the other disciples that enabled them to manifest the same supernatural faith as Jesus. They had an experience where the supernatural faith of Jesus Christ was released within them.
Jesus had told them to go to Jerusalem and wait until they were baptized with the Holy Ghost and power (Acts 1:4-5). He told them, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you” (Acts 1:8). He was declaring, “When I get back to My Father, the Holy Ghost is going to come upon you. And once the power, the anointing, and the same experience I had comes upon you, you will be witnesses, you will have my faith, and you will be able to do the same works!”
Make this declaration:
God’s power is coming upon me. I have the anointing to do the works of God.
