Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1 KJV
The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see.
Hebrews 11:1 MSG
Notice how the passage begins with "Now faith... ". It's not "faith is what we hope for, eventually, some way, someday."
In John 15:7, Jesus said, "If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you."
NOT someday, but NOW. When you ask for anything that's according to His Word in His name, it shall be done.
Now.
Immediately.
Ask, and you shall have it.
It's yours when you ask for it. Use your now faith, not later faith. The delivery date may be a bit farther down the road, but the granting of your request is immediate. The more firmly you believe that, without doubting, the sooner it comes.

Love this post, Reverend. Thank you.
The prime factor here, I think, 'ask for anything according to His word'.
🙂
Absolutely correct, Linda. You’re welcome.
