Last year I heard a voice tell me that faith was my servant.
I got excited at first, then pasted it off as not of or from God.
Then a few months back I heard it again, and was told to look at a certain parable. Which I promptly did.
Then as I was looking at the front of my Copeland bible, which is a KJB, and I came across a topic that read, "Faith, the servant of the believer."
So I started seeking God on the subject, and was given many verses that proved to me that what I heard was from God.
What I found was that both the word of God and faith are minister and servant to us.
Keep in mind that Jesus IS the word of God.

Mar 10:43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:
Mar 10:44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
Mar 10:45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Jesus is the greatest and chiefest of us all, is He not? Therefore, according to His word, minister and servant of us all.

1Co 14:32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

To be subject to, means, to obey. Even as the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets, so the spirit of faith that is given to the believer subject to them.
So this is the short of it, with only two verses to back what basically says faith and the word of God are our servants and ministers, but what say you?

God will speak to us if we are willing to listen. what you heard was certainly from God. I have had times when something was put in my heart and I spoke it in my prayers. Psalms is my fav book because David and I seem to be very much alike especially with God I then found what I said in my prayers in the psalms and knew it was confirmation.

Eph 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith;
KJV

Since faith is the agent through which God, in His grace, saves us; what greater service can be done for us?

What this means is that the name it claim it and blab it grab it, is of God and scripturally sound.
We can ask for any "good thing" and it shall be given to us.
We can speak to a situation and command it to be, and it has to manifest.
God's will is written in His word, in His promises.
Everything we desire is in His word, only, we need to walk uprightly before Him, and keep and confess His word, and it shall be given to us.

there's some contradictory premises in that last post.

not for now though. the wof movement has been thoroughly proven false on this forum.(and many many places elsewhere)

just try, for example, to find anyone wlaking uprightly before Him....... that's a biggie topic here.....(not rightly so, but among the disobedient it is a bell-ringer-whopper!)

Would you mind reminding me what, WOF is please.
I can back up my statements and prove it to be scripturally sound and show the contrary to be false, if given the opportunity.
It is a great misconception that both death and life is not in our tongues, because it is, for it is written.

Okay, thank you sir for letting me know that, 'wof' means, 'word of faith'.
Question.
Did you ask God if it was His will for you to be His child before you said the sinners prayer?
And after you spoke words of faith concerning your salvation, didn't you move the hand of God to give you a new, fresh, and righteous spirit that was created in His image?
If Satan can move the hand of God against Job, then we certainly have far more right to do so for a righteous cause, according to what is written.
