Faith speaks out


Mark 5:34
“And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.”

Continuing still on the characteristics of the faith that makes whole, the third characteristic is that, it speaks out. The scripture said, “…for she said, if I may but touch the hem of His garment, I shall be made whole.” 
You cannot be made whole without declaring your faith. I know you might have come across something like this severally, but the issue
of speaking out your faith is not something that can be taught too much. This is because, this is how you choose what happens to you, whether you are going to go through life deprived or supplied with the things you desire in life.

The fourth characteristic of the faith that makes whole is that it leaves the past behind. The scripture says, “faith is now”. You must learn to live in the present, you cannot be locked up in the past failures and expect to be made whole. 
In fact you cannot be locked up in the successes of yesterday and expect to conquer new territories or have new victories. When Jesus asked the man at the pool of Bethesda if he wants to be made whole, he was not sensitive to what was about to take place in his life, because he was locked up in the past attempts that did not work. So forget the past and receive wholeness now.
