POWER OF YOUR SPOKEN WORD // David Yonggi Cho

The Importance of Faith
Faith is the foundation of our Christian life. It pleases God and is the means by which we receive answers to our prayers. However, many people struggle to activate their faith.
Scriptural Basis for Faith
Hebrews 11:1-5:
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks. By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, and was not found because God had taken him; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. But without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."
Understanding and Activating Faith
Recognize the Gift of Faith
Many claim they lack faith, but Scripture says God has given each of us a measure of faith. Whether you feel it or not, you possess faith.
Clear Goals and Objectives
Faith requires clear goals. Without a specific aim, faith lacks substance. For example, a woman prayed for a husband without specifics. When she defined clear attributes for her future spouse and prayed accordingly, her faith was activated, and her prayers were answered.
Desire and Emotion
A burning desire is crucial. Your emotion and desire must align with your faith. Jesus, in His prayers, was deeply emotional, showing that fervent desire fuels effective faith.
Vision and Dreams
Faith is strengthened by visions and dreams. Just as Abraham was given a vision of numerous descendants and Moses lifted up the bronze serpent, we must visualize our goals. These visions and dreams are essential for faith to manifest.
Examples of Vision and Faith
Abraham’s Vision: God showed Abraham the stars to symbolize his future descendants. This vision strengthened Abraham’s faith.
Church Growth: Early in my ministry, I envisioned a large congregation despite a small start. This vision guided my prayers and actions, eventually leading to significant growth.
Conclusion
For faith to be effective:
Have a clear and specific goal.
Cultivate a passionate desire to see that goal fulfilled.
Embrace visions and dreams that align with your faith.
Remember, God responds to faith. When you align your clear goals, fervent desire, and visionary dreams with faith, you can expect miracles. Let us pray with clarity and conviction, trusting that God will reward our faith.
Vision and Dream as Foundations: The preacher stresses that visions and dreams, received through a deep connection with God, are vital for developing strong, enduring faith. This kind of faith goes beyond mere intellectual belief.
Belly Faith vs. Head Faith: The sermon distinguishes between head faith, which can be easily swayed by circumstances, and belly faith, which is deeply rooted and unshakable. Belly faith is developed through personal experiences and visions from God.
Experiences of Healing and Miracles: The preacher shares personal stories of miraculous healings and successes, attributing these to the power of belly faith. These stories illustrate how faith can lead to miraculous outcomes.
Power of Spoken Word: There’s a strong emphasis on the power of speaking out one’s faith. The preacher believes that confession and declaration of faith can bring about God’s intervention and miracles.
Role of the Church and Faith: The sermon highlights the importance of faith in church growth and effectiveness. Miracles and divine intervention are seen as crucial for drawing people to faith and building a thriving church community.
Practical Application of Faith: The preacher encourages practical application of faith through active prayer, clear vision, and bold declarations. The focus is on engaging deeply with God and living out one’s faith actively.
