Kathie Walters: "When God Tells You To Do Something, Do It By Faith" - THE ELIJAH LIST
Kathie Walters: "When God Tells You To Do Something, Do It By Faith"
From the desk of Steve Shultz:
We really enjoy reading Kathie Walters' testimonies and God-stories when she sends us her articles...and I know our readers do too! Kathie's ministry is all about showing us that the supernatural realm is for everyone in our everyday lives.
Her article today is about us walking by faith in what God has called us to do as she shares:
Everything we receive from God we receive by faith only, there is nothing we can do to earn it, so you have to make a decision that you can hear because Jesus said you could hear... All His provision is in His purpose. So let your faith work in hearing from God.
If you've noticed, we have posted words about faith, vision and provision going hand-in-hand.
Folks, it's a new season to step out in FAITH!
Enjoy! And thanks for forwarding this to your friends! They can subscribe here.

"When God Tells You To Do Something, Do It By Faith"
Receive in Faith
I have so many emails from people who are confused about the "direction" God wants them to take. Not sure whether to move, or where to? Or what is next in their life? House hard to sell?
Well, let me tell you, you don't have to do trial and error. Jesus said, "My sheep hear My voice." We need to sit still and listen. But sit still in faith, believing YOU CAN HEAR.
Everything we receive from God we receive by faith only, there is nothing we can do to earn it, so you have to make a decision that you can hear because Jesus said you could hear.
And what He says, you have to get in your spirit, not just in your head.
The Holy Spirit is a Spirit of faith, and it needs to be the Holy Spirit who is operating, as His faith is supernatural. It's not the natural faith that moves mountains – it's the faith that God gave to us by His Spirit. He has already given it to you when you got born again and to every man and woman is given "the measure of faith."
One time, we were confused about what God had for us. We had many words given to us, but some of them caused even more confusion. It felt like I was pushing doors that just wouldn't open. Then I had a dream, and in the dream I was sitting down on the floor in the middle of a very dark room. I couldn't see anything at all, and for sure I couldn't see where the door was. But I waited in faith, believing God would show me. After a short while, a light shone on a door and it was so easy then. I just got up and walked to the door, opened it and went out.
The Word of the Lord Releases Faith
"Let your faith work in hearing from God."
|
If the Lord gives us a word, like when we left Orlando, it will release faith. We had a church in Orlando, and we were enjoying Orlando. We had been there about ten years, and as I was driving one day, the Lord said to me, "It's time to leave this place and wipe off the dust from your feet." I was shocked! By the way, "Wiping the dust from your feet" means that you put things right as much as you can with people you've had disagreements with.
I told David and we asked the Lord to confirm it from outside (someone that didn't know of the situation). I thought of a friend in England who I knew heard from God very clearly. I asked the Lord to get Harry Greenwood to call me. And I said, "Harry has to say the same thing to me as You."
A few days later, I remembered what I said and reminded the Lord that He needed to have Harry call me. About five minutes later the phone rang and I answered. It was Harry. "Harry Greenwood here, what's going on?"
"Harry," I said, "Where are you?"
"I don't know," he said, "some restaurant in Arizona."
Harry never called people, as he had a wife, a secretary and an assistant who always called for him.
"Well," I said (I didn't want to tell him anything of course), we're having a good time."
"It's time for you to leave that place and wipe off the dust from your feet, OK," Harry said. He prayed a prayer and put down the phone. He prayed for some divine connections. (Photo via deviantart)
When that word came, it released God's faith (not our natural faith). Now we had to move on.
"OK God," I said. "You will have to tell us how to sell the house."
Selling and Moving On
Where we lived, the area was overbuilt and the builders were getting people houses at very low-interest rates loans, so our house was hard to sell.
The next day the Holy Spirit said to me, "Take $200 and go to Home Depot. Buy $200 dollars worth of brightly colored flowers and put them in the front yard and put out a 'for sale by owner' sign."
I did all that and put the flowers in the front yard, etc. with the, "for sale by owner" sign. A couple of weeks later, I was sitting, reading my Bible, and the Lord spoke to me, "The man who is going to buy the house is coming today."
So I got up and tidied the house. About 10 am, the phone rang. It was a lady who said, "We saw your sign. Can we come and see the house this morning?" I said "OK," and we made an appointment.
This couple came and looked at the house. The lady said to me, "Actually, we weren't looking in this area really, but every time we drove by, I noticed those flowers. I love flowers."
So the flowers were just an "attention getter". God told David what price to ask for the house. The couple said they liked the house, but they had an appointment in South Florida to look at a house near a golf course. They said it was a very good deal, so they wanted to check it out. They went off to South Florida.
Two days later as I woke, up, I had a vision of the man and he stumbled and almost fell over. I prayed in the spirit. Later that day, I had another vision of his limo pulling up to our house. He got out of the limo with his shirt over his arm. This was very unusual, as he was very immaculate. Suit and tie, even when it was 100 degrees.
Two days later in the afternoon, in the middle of my daughter's birthday party, the limo drove up and the man got out of the limo with his shirt over his arm, just as I saw in my vision. He explained that the air conditioning in the limo had broken and wasn't working.
"Everything we receive from God we receive by faith only."

They came in and sat down. "We decided to buy the house," he said, "but a very strange thing happened to me down in South Florida."
He was looking at us very strangely, and a bit scared. "What happened?" I asked.
"The place we went to see offered us such a good deal on some property. I was sitting down with the pen in my hand to sign the contract, and suddenly my hand froze and I couldn't move it, so I dropped the pen and left, and here I am."
Well, there was a lot more supernatural things that happened during this sale. He asked us where we were moving to and we told him that God hadn't told us yet. He let us rent the house for $800 a month until God showed us where He wanted us to go.
The man told us in the end that when he was a young man, his three-year-old daughter was dying of Leukemia in the hospital. He knelt by the bed and said to God, "If You heal my daughter, I'll serve You."
The next day his little girl left the hospital completely healed, but he never did keep his end of the bargain. When he met us and he saw God was so involved in our lives, God challenged him again about his word. I don't know what he did because we moved on.
To make a long story short, all of our moves have been like this.
Are You Open?
The point is that you can't move God with your natural faith, but He can release HIS FAITH and move you in His purposes.
Maybe you need to get a word from the Lord to confirm what He wants for you where you are, doing what you are doing. All His provision is in His purpose. So let your faith work in hearing from God. You can't move the Rock, but the Rock can move you.
Sometimes you have to let things go, so they don't have you. God doesn't mind what you have, as long as it doesn't have you and HE HAS YOU. (Photo via Pixabay)
If He wants you to live in England, are you open? If He wants you to live in Kenya, are you open? It's yielding to His purposes and to His Spirit. He moves you; you don't move God. His faith is released for His purposes. His anointing is also released in His purposes. His anointing comes by yielding, not by trying. Trying and striving will take you out of the Holy Spirit realm.
Enjoy the journey.

Who Is This One? The Holy Spirit - Now Think On This by Steve Martin
Who Is This One?
- The Holy Spirit
- The Holy Spirit
Now Think On This
Steve Martin
“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 15:13, NKJV)
The Holy Trinity – God the Father (Abba), Jesus Christ the Son (Yeshua HaMashiach), and Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) – all reign on high together. They are the Three in One as the Eternal Godhead, each purposing together to fulfill the plans They laid out since before the foundations of the earth, before the beginning of time. Together they always were and always shall be.
Do you know the Holy Spirit? Has He been a vital part in your believing walk? He wants you to know Him, for He is the Comforter, the Helper, the One whom Yeshua (Jesus) sent after His ascension into heaven, as He promised He would come.
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
You have heard Me say to you, 'I am going away and coming back to you.' If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, 'I am going to the Father,' for My Father is greater than I.” (John 14:25-28, NKJV)
For a long time Christians spoke of the Holy Spirit as the Holy Ghost, as translated in the King James version of the Bible. To me, that seemed to give Him an eerie, far-off image of one who was spooky and somewhat aloof. Our concept of this One, the third person of the Holy Trinity, was as an after thought. “And oh yes, the one who we don’t really know much about. Thus we will focus on God the Father and Jesus the Son.”
We need to understand that this One, Whom so desires to be very close to us, wanting us to be intimately familiar with Him, has been given to us for our daily walk. He has been sent from heaven to lead us, direct our steps, and comfort us along the path.
He is not some ghostly image flying about the sky doing weird things. He is God Himself, coming to us in all power and in full measure of the Father and the Son.
Often associated with the acts of the Holy Spirit are the resulting acts of those whom He has touched, often in a very emotional, sensational way. So what else would you expect when the God of the Universe comes and touches the lives of those who have sought God, who walk around on this earth? What else should we experience when the most powerful One chooses to reveal and manifest Himself to mankind, specifically you and I, and those who ask Him to do so?
What we see, feel and hear, as a result of His coming in those moments, in time and space, is demonstrated in our physical bodies because of the presence of the Eternal, Spiritual One responding to our need for Him in a very real way. If what we experience wasn’t supernatural, then He wouldn’t be Supernatural.
The world is seeking the supernatural. It is very obvious in our movies, books, websites, and media of all kinds as to what people are seeking after. They know there is spiritual activity going on around this planet. But what they seek needs to be the Creator, not the evil created one.
In my senior year of Columbus High School, a Catholic parochial school in 1973, in Waterloo, Iowa, the Holy Spirit came to me when a few of my classmates asked Him to come and fill me with His presence. I wanted more than what the natural life was giving me. Having seen His work in their lives, I certainly knew there was more for this one, and He delivered!
The baptism of the Holy Spirit isn’t something to write-off as for “only back then and never again.” When He comes and fills you with His very presence, in your spirit, soul, and body, there will be a reaction. There will be a manifestation. There we will a newness, freshness, most powerful demonstration of God that just inhabited you in your very being, down to the very core of your inner man. This is nothing to be feared or stay away from. He is meant to be Who He is, and will show Himself to you in a way you have never experienced before. That is Who He is.
The gifts that Holy Spirit gives us, very supernatural in power and energy, are most needed in our times, these end of days. They are not an option. We must confront the powers of darkness arrayed against the Body of Christ specifically, and mankind in general, with them. Speaking in tongues, the gift of healing and miracles, discernment of spirits, prophetic declarations...these are necessary weapons we need to use. The devil fights with his arsenal. Believers better be equipped and trained in the gifts that the God of the Universe has for us, through His Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is very real. He is fully alive. He has chosen to be with those who have sought His gifts, His power, His promised fulfillment to be with us as we purpose to do the will of God the Father and Yeshua His Son. If ever there was a time when we needed the third Person of the Trinity it is definitely now.
Daily I need to pray, “Come Holy Spirit. Fill me with Your wisdom, Your understanding, Your clarity and knowledge of who I am, where I am to go, and how You want it done through my life, this day.” That has to be our desire and prayer if we are to fulfill the call on our lives to bring the saving Gospel of salvation to this terrified, dying and certainly lost world of people.
Come Holy Spirit! We need Your presence and power in our lives this day! Thank you that You are our Comforter and will be with us through it all!
Shalom and ahava (peace and love in Hebrew).
