FAITH IS A TITLE DEED

Hebrews 11:1 (amp) “NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]”.

It says faith is a title deed. What is title deed? Now anyone who has ever purchased a property would know what a title deed is. But let us see from the dictionary:

Title deed •  a legal document constituting evidence of a right, especially to ownership of property.
That is, something that shows you a particular thing is yours. Now there is a property that I have bought, that physically, I have not seen but I have the document that proves its existence and another document registered with the government that says it is mine. If we want to give a name in scriptural terms, we will call that document faith. 

Now there is a document that is evidencing or gives proof to what is rightfully yours, that document is the word of God. So when the devil comes to you to tell you that you are not healed or your need is not going to be met, show him your title deed, the word of God. It is enough to make him to flee and leave you alone. 
That is what Jesus did when He was tempted, He said it is written! He showed the devil the document and the bible said he left. Today, let the devil know what is written concerning you. The bible is a legal document, signed and sealed in the blood of Jesus, attested to by heaven, respected and adhered to by hell.

Confession/Prayer:
QUICKEN ME O LORD ACCORDING TO THY WORD FOR I HAVE HOPED IN THY STATUTES.
