Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. — Mark 11:24 BSB

Faith is not something you work up through sheer willpower, trying to convince yourself that something will happen. Instead, faith is seeing as a fact that God has said something will happen, trusting that it’s true, and resting in that truth. Faith turns God’s promises into prophecies. While a promise might seem conditional, waiting for our cooperation, faith claims it and transforms it into a certainty—a divine assurance that it will come to pass because God cannot lie.

Faith is the voice of God echoed in our hearts, saying, “It is done.” Faith is hearing that voice, believing it, and living in the joy of its reality. Let us grasp it, repeat it, and go forth triumphantly in its glorious power.

Hear the answer from the throne,
Claim the promise, doubting one.
God has spoken—It is done.
Faith has answered—It is done.
Prayer is over, praise begun.
Hallelujah! It is done!
