Mark 11:24 is the promise I have been claiming for healing. "Whatever things ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them." These are words that Jesus said. As the song writer said, "How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord, is laid for your faith in His excellent Word. What more can He say than to you He hath said?" And I ask, what more can God say than He has said in the above Scripture????
Believing means we have already received something although in an unseen state. It is in the spiritual realm. Once we do this, He says we will have it. God is not asking us to believe that we have something in its manifested state; for if we did, that is seeing, not believing!
There is no way we can change the fact that believing comes first -- THEN it will be followed by seeing! In our humanity, we want to reverse the order and say, "If I can only see, I'll believe." But that is not God's way. He says, "Believe first, then you will see!"
The believing occurs in the spiritual, or the unseen realm. Seeing occurs in the natural, or the seen realm. Our part is to take care of the receiving. God's part is to take care of the having or the manifestation. If we make sure that we receive, God will make sure that we have. We can't do His part for Him, and He will not do our part for us. Manifestations are not our business; believing is. We must remember it is real even though we don't see it.
