Content and Context of God's Word

Faith is important, can't please God without it.
Sometimes people believe with all their heart but don't have an ounce of Bible faith.
Sometimes people will release their faith in what happened to someone else.
If God did it for brother so and so he'll do it for me.
BUT...did you give like he did, did you pray like he did, did you develop your confession and faith of the Word like he did?

It has to be Bible faith, comes from and based on the authority of the Word of God. Not someone else's testimony.

So the easiest cop out is to blame God.

In this study, they'd been talking about chucking out stones out of our heart to get the ground of our hearts prepared to receive the Word.

Romans 10:17
Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God.

It's primarily speaking about the preached word. That's why it's so important to be in a church that will build our faith and teach these principles.
We need to have books and tapes and tools and internet to flow where God's revealing of Himself and His will for us to grow and to abound is so important, to all of us.

Understanding the intent of these verses are so important.

Romans 8:26
Likewise the spirit help our weakness for we know not what we should pray as we ought but the spirit himself makes intercession for us.

The apostle Paul didn't believe that all things work for good, and he penned the book. The apostle Paul said that he would have come to the church at Thessolonica said that he would have come to them once again but satan had hindered him. Why didn't he say that all things work together for the good.... Paul didn't even believe what people do today, he knew the work of the devil.

Romans 8:27
And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God. (the will of is placed in there by translators, so it reads)

And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to God.

Jesus is our intercessor at the right hand of the father for us.
We can't pray like God will pray in our carnal mind. He's in heaven, interceding through the Holy Spirit through us. We cannot pray like God would - but the Holy Spirit knows how to. That's what we yield ourselves to when we pray in the Spirit, in tongues.

Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

WHAT ALL THINGS is he talking about? All the things that the Jesus, our intercessor, prayed through the Spirit of God through US in the Holy Spirit in tongues for the situation, He prayed about it, through us the Way God would pray about it. He said that all things would work together for good after God has prayed about it through His Spirit through us.

This is not talking about the curse, the devil and all that.
Some folk say that a loving God allowed their child to be killed in a car wreck BUT I have to say that all things work together for good....NO IT DOESN'T

The text and intent of this - keeping it in context is that Jesus the intercessor praying through the Holy Spirit praying THROUGH US praying the prayer God would pray.
THAT IS WHAT WILL WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO US WHO LOVE GOD AND ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE.

HELLELUJAH!!! GLORY TO GOD!!!

It steals peoples faith, because they've not been taught that way...
It's like when the boy saw a firetruck and wanted his dad to take him to follow it and after several times of following a fire engine, the boy asked his dad why it was that this truck went all around town starting fires.

That is what we've often seen God to be doing because of bad teaching, and when He's finally invited in on the scene of our lives to bring solutions.

YES, after a bad situation, we CAN pray in the Holy Spirit and HE CAN work what is there for good, if we pray....but that's after the mess the devil has moved in on and created. Not God.

It's what we pray about in the Spirit that causes things to work together for good to us who love God and are called according to His purpose.

Religion has painted a picture of like God is doing His best to bring bad stuff on people to try and teach them something. It's so far from God's way of doing things.
All the time He sent the Holy Spirit to teach us, He doesn't send the devil to teach us anything.

We have got to compare what something says on one page there what the Word says with the rest of the Bible. If it's out of line with the rest of the Bible we're misunderstanding what it says.

If we are not studying God's Word we're not going to be taught by it, will we?

All last week there was a lot of good teaching that is foundational to what Mr. Capps is teaching this week also.

I tell you, when I heard this lesson, I just about jumped out of my chair. I wanted to go over it several times to get it down into my own spirit, and to check it out in God's Word. This lesson has set me FREE from religious teaching I've received for many years....and the excuse we've all made in not understanding what is going on and blaming God for allowing such and such. NOPE, not any more. I'll never see that Scripture the same again, and thank God that He's really set me free!!! LOL GLORY TO GOD!!

Father, thank You for the truth of Your Word and for HELPING us to learn what the context of Your Word is saying. HELP US God. We cannot walk in this life without You, or without Your wisdom. Thank You. I shall never again blame you for what the devil has instigated again. In Jesus' Name.
