Faith and How It Works: How to Use Your Faith to Receive All of God's Promises

By Marty Groeneman

God has given many “great and precious promises” in His word to all who will believe. However, most Christians are never able to receive those blessings because they only come through faith and faith only works when it is activated by the believer. Sadly most believers don’t know or have never been taught, how to use their faith to receive all that God has for them. Most Christians think that whatever happens to them is Gods will because after all “God is in charge, right?” Well, is God really in charge? Is everything that happens to me Gods will for me? Isn’t it enough to just be a good Christian and go to church and then everything will go good in my life… if it’s God’s will? Well, we are going to answer that and many other common questions in this book! You are also going to learn step by step how to use the faith that God gave you to receive everything that God has for you, but we have to learn how to use our faith in order to do that!

Introduction

God has given many great and precious promises in His word to all who will believe. However, most Christians are never able to receive those blessings because they only come through faith and faith only works when it is activated by the believer. Sadly most believers don’t know or have never been taught, how to use their faith to receive all that God has for them. Most Christians think that whatever happens to them is Gods will because after all God is in charge, right? Well, is God really in charge? Is everything that happens to me Gods will for me?  Isn’t it enough to just be a good Christian and go to church and then everything will go good in my life… if it’s God’s will?  Well, we are going to answer that and many other common questions in this book!  You are also going to learn step by step how to use the faith that God gave you to receive everything that God has for you, but we have to learn how to use our faith in order to do that! Please read this book carefully and look up the scriptures that I have included in the text (I have also given you a list of scriptures to study as an appendix) and you will discover how to use your faith to receive for you and your family… and for those around you who need what God has for them as well.

What is the Kingdom?

What I am going to share about the Kingdom of God is a culmination of all of the teaching I have received over the years and putting it together in a way that anyone can understand.  Jesus said that he came to preach the Kingdom to the world, so I will explain in these pages how he did just that and what he meant by the Kingdom of God.  Paul also had a lot to say about the Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is not meat and drink but righteousness, peace and joy.  I will show you how Paul was talking about the same thing Jesus was. I will show you what your part in the Kingdom is and how you can take an active role as an important member of it.  Jesus said we must enter the kingdom as a child but the important thing is that we must enter the Kingdom.  To be born again, to be set free, to be healed in your body, to have your financial needs met, to have joy, to be able to love, to be able to forgive or anything else you might do as a believer that means anything in this life must be done God’s way or in other words in and through God’s Kingdom!

A Citizen of the Kingdom

I’m not talking about how to get God to do your bidding or how to use your faith for selfish things.  First of all that would be impossible!  Your faith won’t work that way.  But, everything in the Kingdom is for the benefit of the Kingdom and as a member of it you are entitled to all of its benefits!  Think about how it is in God’s Kingdom.  There is no sadness, no sickness, no lack, no hatred; there is nothing negative in it! Wouldn’t you want to live in a place like that?  Well you can by being born again through faith
