SPEAKER 01 :
Good morning. Welcome to Victorious Faith. I’m Cherry Campbell. This morning, I’m going to continue sharing with you a message that I preached in one of our Victorious Faith services called, What Are You Seeing? What Are You Saying? So join me now in our live service for the continuation of this message, What Are You Seeing? What Are You Saying? Take the promises of God specifically for each and every one of those areas. And if you’ve built in one area, but let another area go weak, then you better take some time and focus on that area and say, I’ve got to build my faith up for my healing. I’ve been doing well over here in finance, but I need to build up my faith for healing. Then something happens with your children. It’s like, oh, I better go build up my faith for my children. God is going to watch over my children. He gives my children peace. He teaches my children. He guides my children. He watches over my children. My children are saved. And, you know, there’s people that worry about their children. You’ve got to change worry to faith. Because just for your information, fear and worry, worry is fear, are the opposite of faith. They work in the opposite direction. They produce what you fear instead of like faith producing what you believe. So if you allow worry and fear to speak to you every day and you don’t do anything about it, out of the abundance of your heart, your mouth is going to speak. And then you’re voicing your fears. And once you voiced it, you’ve given Satan the license to start working on it and to make it happen. Whereas with faith, when you voice your faith and you believe it in your heart. And of course, you can’t con God. God knows the real from the phony. But when you are believing and you speak it, then the angels get to work and start to bring it to pass. So who do you have working for you? It depends on what’s coming out your mouth. If fear and worry are coming out your mouth, then the devil’s working for you. But if faith is coming out your mouth, then the angels and the power of God are working for you. Amen. And so you got to be watching. Everybody point to your mouth. It’s right under your nose. Watch your big mouth. Turn to somebody next to you and say, you better watch your big mouth. Right there is the doorway for trouble. Because the wrong words can give Satan the opportunity he’s looking for. You know, he is cunning the devil. He’s a dirty devil. And he’s got thousands and thousands of years of experience. Whereas we only have a few days on this earth. And so he is watching you for what are you saying? Because as we’re going to get to this later on the radio broadcast… And I’ve talked about it already, the laws of the kingdom, spiritual laws, the creative power of words. We are created in the image of God. Genesis 126, God said, let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, over all the livestock, over all the earth and everything creeping on the earth. It’s the dominion that God has given us. And how does anybody exercise authority? If you’re a boss, if you’re a manager, if you’re a mother, how do you exercise your authority? By speaking. You say go and he goes. That’s why the Roman centurion came to Jesus. And that’s why Jesus said to everybody, this man has the greatest faith of anyone I’ve seen in all Israel. Why? Why? He wasn’t having some huge heavenly vision and revelation. Simple. He understood authority. It was as simple as understanding authority. He understood. He caught it with his simple. I mean, I’m not trying to insult him, but it’s like me. I mean, I can understand that. If you’re a child, you can understand it. I say, go, he goes. I tell this one, come and he comes. I look at Jesus and everything he says, it happens. So he’s got the same authority that I use. So that’s why I can believe that if he says it, it’ll be done because everything he says is done. And that’s the simplicity. It’s not complicated. It’s simplicity. But we are made in the image of God so that what we say also comes to pass. And it’s out of the overflow of your heart that your mouth speaks. So it’s not what you say one time when you’re in church and everybody says a powerful confession. And altogether we say, I’m blessed. I’m healed. I’m anointed. My needs are met. I’m out of debt. And then you go home and say, what am I going to do? What am I going to do? We have all these bills. We have all these problems. Look at this. Look at that. Well, Satan’s watching you at home. And hopefully he’s not finding anything. But if you, what are you saying again and again and again, that is giving him a license then to start carrying it out because you said it. There is authority. There is a command in your words, even though you don’t think you’re commanding. You don’t think you’re commanding. You’re not trying to command. All these bad things always happen to me. You’re not trying to command, but it’s a command. And now he has a right to carry it out. So we have to, I mean, I’m coming back to this issue of my mouth and my words more and more and more. And that’s why the Bible says, keep a guard over your lips. Keep a guard over your lips because what you’re saying is either giving license because what you’re saying, you have authority in the earth as a man, as a human, we have authority in the earth. And what we say is the command that’s issued. And so if it’s good, the power of God goes into action. But if it’s bad, then the devil is able to take action. So we have to watch our mouth. But let’s get back to this about what I’m trying to say here. The kind of faith, the God kind of faith, believing what you don’t see. Now that can be a challenge. Believing something you don’t see, but not only believing in it, but being fully persuaded of it when you have no evidence of it. So the doctor says you have this bad thing in your body and you feel the bad thing and you feel bad. But God says by his stripes, you were healed. So this, I like this example. In one hand, you are carrying a report from the doctor. Maybe it’s an x-ray. Maybe it’s just a computer printout. You’ve got this list of things that are in your body, problems that you’ve got. And in this hand, you’ve got 1 Peter 2, 24. By his stripes, you were healed. And in addition to this one, you’ve got the way you feel. And maybe you’re feeling sick or feeling weak or feeling pain in addition to the doctor’s report. So you’ve got your evidence from the doctor. You’ve got your evidence from your body, all telling you, you have some serious physical problems. But in this hand, there is first Peter two 24. There’s Isaiah 53. There’s Matthew eight 17. He himself carried our sicknesses and bore our diseases by his stripes. You were healed. He sent forth his word and healed them. And now you are between two reports that are opposite, right? They’re opposites. This one says you’re sick. This one says you’re healed. You stand between the two. Which one do you choose? If you are moved by how you feel, oh, I feel so sick. Oh, I’m in pain. And if you yield and lean in agreement, it’s where is your agreement? Where two or more agree. You are the deciding agree. Are you agreeing with the physical or are you agreeing with the word? This is one word to take two to agree. It only needs to be you in the Bible. You and God are two, but we’re two or more agree touching anything. They believe what they ask. So if you agree with the doctor, then you have what the doctor said. You have the sickness. But if you agree with the Bible and agree with God and say, I’m healed. The body doesn’t look healed. The body doesn’t feel healed. But this says I’m healed. No evidence, the God kind of faith based on God’s word alone when there is no evidence that exists. And if you add your agreement to this, to the word, then that’s the one you’ll get. Whichever one you add your agreement to where two or more agree. So you either have to agree with this voice, the word, or agree with the natural voice. And your voice is the deciding voice, which when you agreeing with, that’s the one you will get financially. You look at your bank account, if you get your monthly statement at zero balance, or you go to the ATM, stick in your ATM card and it gives you a receipt, zero balance. You pull out your wallet, there’s nothing in it. You ask your wife for money or your husband for money and he says, I got none. That natural evidence says you are broke. You have no money. But according to Psalm 23, my cup runneth over. You know, a lot of people quote Psalm 23 and they don’t even think about what it says. My cup runneth over. Does it say my cup has a few dregs on the bottom? My cup is a quarter full. My cup is half full. My cup is up to the rim. What does it say? My cup runneth over. Now the Bible says your cup is running over. You look around you. I don’t see anything running over. I see a bit of emptiness in the wallet, emptiness in the fridge, emptiness in the bank. But God says it’s running over. God says you’re running over. God says you lack nothing. Those who fear him lack nothing. God says that he was made poor so that you would be made rich and you are rich. So you’ve got your pocket. You’ve got the bank statement. You’ve got the ATM receipt. You got no money, all that physical evidence, but you’ve got Psalm 23 that says you’re running over. You’ve got second Corinthians eight, nine that says you’re rich. Now you again are in the middle between two opposite words. Now, which one are you going to agree? Are you going to lean and agree with the natural? That’s what you get to agree. You have what you agree on. Or are you going to lean toward the word and agree with the word that says your cup is running over? Believing what you don’t see.
