Caught Not Taught: The Same Spirit of Faith from 2nd Corinthians 4:13
from ResLife Church
Is your faith a set of rules you've learned, or a fire you've caught? While the principles of faith must be taught, faith itself is a spirit—an attitude that is caught, not taught. Just as a cold log catches fire by being placed next to one that is already burning, you "catch" the spirit of faith by hearing and positioning yourself near the fire of God’s Word. In this message, we explore how to move beyond just "believing" to actively speaking and walking in the identical spirit of faith found in the heroes of the Bible. What You’ll Discover in This Video: The Spirit of Faith Analogy: Why faith functions like a spiritual atmosphere that is transferred through hearing. Identical Faith: How the "carbon copy" spirit of faith that worked for Caleb, Moses, and David is the exact same one available to you today. The Two-Part System: Why you must connect your "believing system" to your "sound system" to see results. Why Your Mouth Matters: Understanding that the devil doesn't care what you believe as long as you keep your mouth shut. Giant Killers: How David’s spirit of faith transformed a group of "distressed and discontented" men into a mighty army of giant killers. Faith vs. Presumption: The critical difference between responding to God’s promises and simply having confidence in yourself. "If you don’t like what you’re seeing, you need to change what you’re saying" This teaching will challenge you to stop talking *about* your mountain and start talking *to* it. --- Scriptures Mentioned: 2 Corinthians 4:13 – Having the same spirit of faith. Numbers 14:24 – Caleb’s "different spirit". Proverbs 18:21 – Death and life in the power of the tongue. Mark 11:22-23 – Speaking to the mountain. Romans 10:8-10 – The Word is in your heart and in your mouth.
