6 : B V O V It's time we stopped thinking such victory is beyond our reach! If it was beyond our reach, it would have been unjust for Jesus to promise it. If there's no way for us to walk in that level of victory, it would be a miscarriage of justice for God to say in 1 John 5:4 that "this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith." God is not unjust, and neither is Jesus. So, the victorious life of overcoming faith and answered prayer must be attainable. The life of faith is not a life where there ceases to be any more problems. It's not a utopia where there are no mountains and no unful lled desires or reason to pray. A fear- free, victorious life is one where we receive from God solutions to seemingly unsolvable problems and, by faith in His WORD, command the mountains the devil has erected in our lives to get out of our way. "But Brother Copeland," somebody might say, "I've done what Jesus said to do in Mark 11:22-24 and it hasn't worked for me. What could be the problem?" Most likely, you'll nd it in verse 25 where Jesus said, "When ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any." That verse is just as important as the two that precede it. It's a continuation of Jesus' teaching on faith. Faith and Forgiveness Are Connected Faith won't work in an unforgiving heart because "faith…worketh by Love" (Galatians 5:6), and Love forgives. How do we know Love forgives? Because God is Love, and He forgives us (1 John 1:9; Ephesians 4:32). Forgiveness is one of faith's built-in safety precautions. Faith will only function properly when it's in place. If you think about it, the reason is obvious. Imagine what you might inadvertently do with faith's mountain- moving power if it worked for you even when you were operating in strife and unforgiveness. You might get mad at some fellow who cut in front of you on the freeway, yell, "Get o the road, you dummy!" and send the poor guy sailing o into the ditch.
