Faith receiving precedes actual receiving

Mark 5:25-29

“Now a woman was there who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years.  She had endured a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all that she had. Yet instead of getting better, she grew worse. 

When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak,   for she kept saying, "If only I touch his clothes, I will be healed."   At once the bleeding stopped, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.”  The NET Bible®

Did you notice the process of her healing? The Scriptures say, “at once the bleeding stopped and then she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease”, this tells you faith receiving precedes actual receiving. Putting it another way, faith comes before feeling. This is the order in receiving from God in every area and it is more practically played especially in the area of receiving healing for sick bodies as it was done in the case of the woman with the issue of blood. 

Mark 11:23-24

“For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” KJV

In the passage above, in both instances, whether in speaking to a situation or in praying, you receive by faith first before you see manifestation. Too many want to believe they are healed after they have the feelings and they want to believe they are prosperous after they have seen their bank account reflect it. No faith precedes feelings, manifestation and physical evidence. Until you can accept this reality of faith before feelings you will not be able to receive from God
