“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.”
Ephesians 2:8 (KJV)
In the Kingdom of God, faith and grace are inseparable. One reveals what is freely given; the other is how we take hold of it. Grace is God’s hand extended and faith is our hand reaching back to receive.
Faith Is Acting Like God’s Word Is True
As believers, we don’t live by how we feel, we live by what God says.
“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” – 2 Corinthians 5:7
Faith is not a feeling. Faith is knowing what God has said and responding to it even when you don’t feel it. It’s saying, “God said it, so I believe it, and I act like so.” That’s how we experience the realities of the Kingdom.
But how can we respond if we don’t first know?
Here’s the simple protocol:
- Know the Word
- Understand the Word
- Act like it’s true
That’s faith.
Clear the Noise, Activate Your Faith
Faith is not complicated but our minds are often cluttered with distractions, doubts, and competing information. The main battlefield is in our minds and we must conquer it to express faith correctly.
“…bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” – 2 Corinthians 10:5
Your mind is loyal to what you feed it. The more attention you give to God’s word, the more faith rises. One practical way to declutter your heart and realign your focus is through fasting . Fasting helps silence the noise and amplify the voice of the Spirit.
Faith Isn’t Trying to Make God Move; He Already Has
Faith doesn’t push God’s hand; it receives what God has already done.
“Faith begins where the will of God is known.”
The Word of God is our Kingdom constitution, it tells us what’s available to us. But like in any nation, even with laws in place, criminals (in our case, demons) still try to violate them. That’s why we must enforce our rights by resisting the devil.
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” – James 4:7
Grace Makes, Faith Takes
God’s grace provided salvation, healing, provision, and victory but it’s through faith that we take hold of these realities.
Only embracing grace leads to passivity. Only emphasizing faith leads to striving (legality). However, together, grace and faith unleash the life of God.
Grace is what God has done. Faith is how we respond.
Confession Aligns You with Truth
Confession is a vital part of faith. It renews the mind and sets the heart in agreement with God’s Word. The first mountain you must conquer is the one in your heart. Speak the Word until your heart aligns with heaven.
Faith Works Through Love
“…by love serve one another.” – Galatians 5:13
“Above all things have fervent charity among yourselves…” – 1 Peter 4:8
Walking in love is not emotional, it’s spiritual. Love looks like giving, praying, forgiving, and serving. As we walk in love, the supernatural flows easily. Why? Because love is the oxygen of faith.
Romans 13 reminds us that love fulfills the law. When you truly see your fellow believers as members of the same body, love becomes instinctive.
Love is not blind. It doesn’t ignore red flags or abandon wisdom. Love is truthful, wise, and Spirit-led.
Live the Word, See the Word
Any area of your life you don’t expose to God’s Word is the area you won’t see God manifest. Want to see His power in your health? Finances? Relationships? Expose those areas to His Word. Speak it. Believe it. Live it.
Stand on promises like:
- Psalm 23 – God is your Shepherd
- Psalm 91 – You dwell in divine protection
- Isaiah 53 – Healing is yours
- Romans 8 – Nothing can separate you from His love
Conclusion
Faith isn’t a church term, it’s a Kingdom lifestyle. Grace is not a passive doctrine, it’s divine empowerment. Let your life be a dance between what God has done and how you respond. Stay rooted in the Word. Keep your love walk active. Speak what God says. And live like it’s already done.
That’s the Protocol of the God-Kind.
