Faith Food Devotional

Faith for Finances

"Let us hold fast the profession (confession) of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised)" (Heb. 10:23).

When I've needed things in my own life, I've always stood on Mark 11:23: "Truely I tell you, if you say to this mountain, 'Be taken up and thrown in to the sea,' and if you do not doubt in your heart, but believe what you say will come to pass, it will be done for you." In addition, I said (or confessed) what I was believing God for. I've always just said it, and not prayed it.

(When another person is involved, however, what they believe can affect your prayers; especially if they are not in agreement with you.)

I haven't prayed about money for years, and I've never been without money. I always just say, "The money will come," and it comes. When I need a certain amount, I am specific in my confession: I specify the amount I need.

Once I needed $1,500 by the first of the month. So I said it. And I kept saying it. During times of prayer, I didn't pray it; I just said, "By the first of the month I'll have $1,500."

When the first of the month came, I had $1,500! Praise the Lord!

Confession: I hold fast to my confession of faith without wavering. For He is faithful who promises. And I have what I say.
