1 Kenneth Copeland Ministries June 2014 Dear Partner, You re very strong on my heart as I write this letter today. I asked the Father what I could say to you that would open the floodgates of THE BLESSING of The LORD a spark to ignite the fire of faith that s in you, right now! Our heavenly Father s BEST, and everything He has, is always available to the claim of faith! Why is faith so important? Why is it impossible to please GOD without it? Impossible is a BIG word. The answer is clearly spelled out in one verse in Romans 4:16: 16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all. GRACE is our Father s overwhelming desire TO TREAT PEOPLE AS THOUGH SIN HAD NEVER HAPPENED! Faith then, is the spiritual force that takes hold of GRACE and makes every born-again believer equal to Jesus in HIS eyes. Look at the end purpose: The promise might be sure to all the seed! That s us! That means our prayers of faith are just as important to our Father as Jesus prayers when He was on earth. That s been made very plain in the great faith-grace verses in Galatians 3. Let s start with verses 7-9: 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

2 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. As you read these verses, remember the phrase: SO THAT IT MIGHT BE BY GRACE, following the word faith in Romans 4:16. For instance, in Galatians 3:11, The just SHALL LIVE BY FAITH SO THAT IT MIGHT BE BY GRACE! Now, look very carefully at Galatians 3:16 and 29: 16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. 29 And if ye be Christ s, then are ye Abraham s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Look at verse 16, again. When God made covenant promises to Abraham, He was actually speaking to JESUS ONE MAN, ONE SEED! Not seed-s. ONE. Yet, when referring to us in Romans 4:16, it s still singular: YOU, ME. You are one with HIM! God, the Father, is just as ready to answer YOUR prayer of faith as He was to answer Jesus when He prayed! To confirm that, look at Hebrews 4:16: 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. To find faith in a time of need? No, to find GRACE to help! What, then, is holding up THE BLESSING flow? Is it a GRACE problem? No, it s either a low level of faith (no WORD intake) or contaminated faith (fear mixed) which allows the enemy into your life. When your faith is feeble, you don t want to speak words of faith. You want to say any and everything but faith. That s because faith is produced in your spirit. It doesn t come from the mind. To activate your faith, two things must be acted on: 1. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by The WORD of the Father. 2. Faith works by love. No WORD in no faith out! NO LOVE NO POWER!

3 Mark 11:23-25 must be in place for faith to work. If you continue talking about your trials and difficulties, all the tears and crying in the world won t change your situation. The continual rehearsing of all of the things you lack lack of money, lack of health, saying no one loves you, etc. will cause faith to weaken until your life is without the shield part of your armor. That causes the rest of the armor of God to become inactive because each piece is faith dependent. That armor is GRACE armor. Can you see the step-by-step breakdown the devil uses to steal The WORD? The practice of fear and doubt becomes stronger until it is developed into a stronghold a prison of misery. NO CHILD OF GOD SHOULD BE IN A CAGE! How do I get out? By faith. HAVE FAITH IN GOD! Begin talking about your wonderful LORD and Savior! Tell Him, and everyone else who will listen, how grateful you are: Oh, thank You, dear Sir! I m NOT going to hell! Look at failure and pain, and SHOUT it s very important to shout GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN ME, THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD! WAKE UP YOUR FAITH! Say, I m a free man! I m coming out of this cage! Jesus set me free 2,000 years ago, and I m supposed to be healed! I m supposed to prosper! I m supposed to be happy and filled with joy! I REFUSE to go back into that cage of doubt, fear and unbelief! MY FATHER LOVES ME AS MUCH AS HE DOES JESUS! OH, GLORY TO GOD! Get out of that cage, and run into THE SECRET PLACE of THE MOST HIGH GOD! Our Father is THE MOST HIGH, not just high, but the MOST HIGH GOD. Now, put everything else aside, and get under the preaching of The WORD of faith. STAY THERE, night and day. You ll know when your faith becomes strong and healthy again. I ll finish with these scriptures: Matthew 12:37: For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Acts 5:20: Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life. Acts 11:13-14: And he showed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter; who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.

4 Men are saved, healed and prospered by hearing and speaking words words of faith. Our assignment is to take those words The WORD of the living God to them, from the top of the world to the bottom, and all the way around, NOW! Jesus is coming so soon! He needs you and me stronger in faith and love than we ve ever been! TOGETHER, we can, and will, get it done! Gloria and I love you and pray for you every day.
