Message summary & scripture references

There is a popular expression that says, “Fake it until you make it.“ Some people have applied this concept to faith; however, you can’t fake faith until you get it. Pretending to be in faith doesn’t give you the power to receive the things you desire. Instead, be honest with God if you lack faith, and He will help you.

Joshua 1:8 KJV

[8] This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
