If someone wrote you a letter and told you that he had deposited five thousand dollars to your account in the bank to take care of your bills, and if you knew that he was financially able to do it, you would not hesitate a moment. You could hardly wait to get to the bank. You would hand the letter to the cashier with confidence. You know the man who wrote the letter; you know the promise he made; you know the money is there waiting for you.
Is the Word of your Father, the Word of the Master, to be depended upon as the word of a friend?
What a background is this for faith! What a prayer life can grow out of truth like this!
You can see what He is to us and what we are to Him.
Nothing is impossible to Him, and all His ability is ours.
-- E.W. Kenyon

All Is Yours
Now just take this thing home to your heart and read Eph. 1:3, "Who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ."
You are blessed with everything that you need.
His very fullness is yours.
His ability is yours.
His love is yours.
Yes, He himself is yours!
-- E. W. Kenyon

Hope and Faith
Hope is always future. Faith is always now.
Someone comes to me and asks me to pray for them, and I say, "Was the prayer answered?" And they answer, "I hope it was."
Then I know it will not be answered, and I frankly tell them. "No, the Hoper's prayers are seldom answered." . . .
The Hoper is always a failure. It is the Believer that is a success -- and believing, you remember, is acting on the Word.

I Stand Complete
The Word is mine. The Holy Spirit is mine. Jesus is mine. God is my own Father. Their Righteousness is my Righteousness. I stand complete in their completeness.
I am a New Creation, created in Christ Jesus. All the rights and privileges of a child are mine. I did not have to ask for them. They were conferred upon me. When I became His child, these things were a part of the New Creation so I enter into my rights.
One of the greatest blessings, one of the most wonderful facts is that Satan was defeated for me.
Jesus' victory over him is my victory.

The Mighty One is in me.
I want you to say in the morning, "That mighty One is in me. He can put me over today. I can face any emergency. I can do all things in Him because He is my strength."
I can hear Him whisper, Isaiah 41:10: "Fear thou not for I am with thee. ("I am in thee.") Be not dismayed for I am thy (Father) God. I will strengthen thee; yea, I will uphold thee; yea, I am today all that you need: your helper, your wisdom, your strength, your ability."
You see, it is not what I should be. It is not what I can be.
It is what I am in Christ.

God's Word Can Never Die
God's Word, like Himself, can never die, can never lose its freshness, its power, its ability to recreate, to strengthen and give courage.
You see, the Word in the lips of faith becomes just like the Word in Jesus' lips.
The Word in lips of doubt and fear is a dead thing; but in the lips of faith, it becomes life-giving, dominant.
Through it the sick are healed; Satan's captives are set free.
This living Word is the lips of faith is God's answer to the heart cry of man.
Man's word may fascinate and satisfy reason for a time, but the heart demands the Word of God.

"The Supernatural"
"The Supernatural" is the title that E.W. Kenyon put on this passage.
Prayer is an excursion into the supernatural realm.
You are in the Throne Room in the Presence of God, of All Ability. He has promised to hear your petition and to give you your request. You have come on the ground of His Word.
He said: "Whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my Name He will give you."
You understand that the words that Jesus spoke were His Father's words; so you come now with the Father's words in your lips, and you are making your appeal on the ground of His own Word.
