How do you give Him place?
By believing what He said in His Word and receiving it by faith. And by refusing to believe and say anything else!
Faith is like a door or a window in the realm of the spirit. It gives God an opening to move and change things supernaturally in your life. It hooks the spiritual realm and the natural realm together, so God’s will can be done for you here on earth just like it’s done in heaven.
I know this sounds almost too good to be true, but after studying and learning to walk by faith for more than 50 years now, Ken and I can testify to this from experience: As believers, we really can enjoy “days of heaven upon the earth” (Deuteronomy 11:21). Even though this world is a dark and dangerous place, and there may be trouble all around us, if we’ll maintain a spirit of faith we can be victorious in every situation.
“But Gloria, you don’t know the kind of problems I’m facing,” you might say. “They’re bad! It would take a miracle to turn them around.”
Well, then, receive a miracle. Dare to believe that “with God all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26) and “all things are possible to him that believeth” (Mark 9:23). Open the door for the supernatural power of God to go to work on your behalf by standing on His Word in faith.
Faith is the key of access to the whole kingdom of God! According to the Scriptures:
“We have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand” (Romans 5:2).
“This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith” (1 John 5:4).
“The righteous will live by faith” (Galatians 3:11, "New International Version").
“[By] faith in God…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” (Mark 11:22-23).
