Faith Takes God is reaching His hand down from Heaven, saying, “My child, here’s all you will ever need to have happiness, godliness, and a joyous life on earth. Here it is!” You can look at that hand and say, “Oh, I wish that were so. Wouldn’t that be nice!” Or you can, by faith, reach up and grab hold of all the provisions of life God’s hand is offering you. With your other hand, grab hold of the things that hinder you from enjoying godliness, health, wealth, and happiness. Your faith will activate God’s power and that power will flow through you to set you free from those hindrances. Never release your hold on God as He reaches down and offers the provision of life to you. You see, God is not going to hit you over the head and say, “My child, get in line. Here it is. Take it.” He’s not going to drop it on you. He’s not going to spoon-feed you and force it down your mouth. No, all He’s going to do is offer it. It’s there. You must take it by faith. Faith takes. And after faith takes, faith never turns loose. And because faith never turns loose, it leads to success by the power of God. Another thing faith does is rejoice. It rejoices now—not when it happens or manifests. So go ahead and rejoice! As you walk this great walk of faith never again say, “I don’t know if I’m going to make it or not.” From now on, talk in faith and take it by faith. It may look bleak, but never relinquish your hold. Once you start out in faith, hold fast to your confession and praise God all the way to victory. Let this month’s issue encourage you to follow God wholeheartedly. Lynette wrote an article that shows you how to find joy and contentment in Christ. My article explains what Rhema is: a word, a place, and a worldwide family with the mandate to “Go teach My people faith.” Enjoy this issue.

The Secret of Contentment: Enjoy Today Have you ever heard the phrase, “Tomorrow never comes”? In other words, each day you live is always “today.” Don’t become so wrapped up in the future that you miss out on today. It’s fine to have aspirations and ambitions. But learn to be content with what you have right now. Give today your best, and give the rest to God. So many people are discontented in their job. They’re not enjoying the job they have right now, because they’re thinking about the possible promotion they might get in the future. Others can’t enjoy their home right now because they’re thinking of the better home they want in the future. I’ll never forget our first home. It wasn’t a very large house. It was old and the windows were rotting out. When the cold north wind blew, it was easy to become discontented. There were many times we had every burner on the stove turned on. Without cen- tral heat, that was the only way we could warm the house. But I was always content there. Some of our friends moved into better homes before we did, but I never once got jealous. Many times we will miss what the Lord has in store for us by becoming jealous of someone else’s success. Jealousy is a sure way to hinder our blessing. When you are content with your pres- ent state and stay committed to do what you’re supposed to do at the moment, God will surely reward you. rhema.org/store 1-800-54-FAITH (543-2484) // Mail enclosed envelope Stay Faithful IN CANADA: 1-866-70-RHEMA (707-4362) The secret to being content regardless of your situation is to know that God will take care of you.

This highly anticipated new release from Kenneth Hagin Ministries and Faith Library Publications will take you on a journey into Rev. Kenneth Erwin Hagin’s life of faith. A humble man of divine destiny. A man who was faithful to the mandate he received from Jesus to “Go teach My people faith.” From that mandate came a priceless legacy for us all. What God did in the life of one man, sold out to obeying His Word, can be done in anyone’s life—including yours.

Sometime later, while Chad was working on his master’s degree, it began to weigh heavy on him to go into full-time ministry. Preaching, however, was not a part of his plan. He didn’t care about CHAD MINISTERS being in front of people. He was content to just play the drums. ON THE SUPER- NATURAL BEING After much wrestling, Chad surrendered to the Lord’s plan.

While at Rhema, Chad met his wife, Lacy, a 2001 graduate. Two weeks after Chad graduated in 2003, the couple married. The newlyweds moved to Chad’s hometown of Beaumont, Texas, where Chad served his pastor for three years. During that time, Chad completed a master’s degree in coun- seling. He also began devouring books on healing. He read all of John G. Lake’s and Smith Wigglesworth’s books. Their testimonies of miraculous healings gave him a greater desire to see Jesus move in the same way today. In 2006, Chad and his wife left Beaumont to pioneer Light- house Bible Church in College Station, Texas. Their first service was the Sunday after Labor Day.

24 THE WORD OF FAITH // August ‘17 Chad began teaching healing to his congregation from the standpoint of our union with Christ. Jesus is the Vine, and we are the branches. As He is, so are we.

#RhemaWOF rhema.org 25 Ready to Light Their World RHEMA USA GRADUATES 43RD CLASS ON FRIDAY, May 19, 278 graduates of Rhema Bible Training College USA proudly entered the Cox Business Center auditorium in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Family and friends sur- rounded them, cheering and capturing the special moment with many pictures. Along with a runner’s relay baton, each graduate received a diploma, which marked the completion of their studies. The baton serves as a reminder that others have run before them, and now, it’s their turn to enter the earth’s harvest fields and run their race for the Lord. Rev. Dan Morrison, former pastor of Summit Church in Farmington, New Mexico, a 1981 and 1982 RBTC graduate, delivered the commencement address. Rev. Morrison reminded the graduates that God has a plan for their lives.

As commencement ended, graduates walked out of the auditorium holding a lit candle in one hand and a baton in the other. Each baton bore the inscription: “I COMMIT TODAY TO CARRY THE BATON OF REVIVAL TO THIS GENERATION. I WILL CARRY THE BANNER OF FAITH AND GOD’S POWER TO A LOST AND DYING WORLD. THIS IS MY TIME TO DO ALL GOD HAS CALLED ME TO DO!”

The correspondence school is a home-study course intended to give laypeople basic Bible knowledge.

It seems that I’ve been in this place of preparation for a long time. Will it ever be different?” Just continue to trust God with all your heart. Don’t try to figure out how and when God is going to fulfill His plan for you. As you pray, He will reveal each step you need to take. You may not come into the full potential of what God has prepared for you tomorrow or next month. Be faithful to prepare yourself and rely on the Holy Spirit’s leading.
