Faith Must Be Spoken
Pastor David Crammer • Sunday March 26, 2023
Notes
We are a big-thinking, impossible-believing church that moves in step with the Spirit. We will never insult God with small thinking and limited living. We believe that Gods Word is perfect and unlimited and all things are possible for us who believe.
2 Corinthians 4:13 NKJV
And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak,
Matthew 24:35 NKJV
Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.
1. FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen
Hebrews 11:1–3 NKJV
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.
3 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.
Now Faith is the Substance…
A Substance is a raw material
the real physical matter of which a person or thing consists and which has a tangible, solid presence.
1 Peter 2:2 NKJV
as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby,
Romans 10:17 NKJV
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.“Some people feed their bodies three hot meals a day, and their spirits one cold snack a week, and wonder why they’re weak in faith.”
– Smith Wigglesworth
2. THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF FAITH
Mark 11:22-24
So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. 23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

Psalm 33:6–9 NKJV
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth. 7 He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deep in storehouses. 8 Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. 9 For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
