The Experiment Of Your Faith

·

Jonathan Cahnby Jonathan Cahn

The Bible speaks of the testing of our faith. You probably think about it in negative terms… what God is going to lay on you next. The Greek word for testing or a trial means ‘EXPERIMENT.’ Our English word ‘Experiment’ comes from the Latin – ‘Ex-Peritus’ which means ‘To Try Out.’ It means you have to TRY OUT your faith. You have to use it, prove it – experiment with it. God gave us wings, but most believers keep their wings all locked up. They’ll say they believe that the wings work, but deep down, they’re not really sure. The Bible says that faith must be tested… must be tried out. Your faith is never based on experience, but it must produce experience. You have to experience the real power of God. However, if you want to experience it, you have to experiment with it. The Lord says, ‘Test me and see if I will not open the windows of heaven.’ Therefore put on your lab coat and start experimenting into the power of God in your life. Take out your wings, try them out, and start flying.

We see not yet all things put under him. But we see Jesus —Hebrews 2:8-9

How true is our text for us all! How many things there are that seem to be stronger than we are, but blessed be Jesus’ name they are all in subjection under Him, and we see Him crowned above them all.

Jesus is our Head, our representative, our other self, and where He is we shall surely be. Therefore when we fail to see something that God has promised, and that we have claimed in our experience, let us look up and see it realized in Him and claim it in Him. Our side is only half the circle; the heavenly side is already complete. The rainbow, the upper half of which we cannot see, shall one day be all around the throne and include the other hemisphere of all our now unfinished life.

By faith, then, let us enter into all our inheritance. Let us lift up our eyes to the north, south, east and west, and hear Him say, All the land that thou seest, to thee will I give it (Genesis 13:15). Let us remember that the circle is complete, that the inheritance is unlimited and that all things are put under His feet.
