Sis. Donna Perine:

>it is that he has CHOSEN not to do ALL things.

>Mark 9: 23  "Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, 
>all things are possible to him that believeth".

Dave:
My point exactly. He won't do anything unless we allow Him.
According to our Faith...in His Word...Shout Amen somebody!

Sis. Donna Perine:
>God CAN do ALL things. If we can believe it, we can
>receive it. He is not going to force anything on us.
>It is OUR lack of faith (i.e. unbelief) that keeps us from
>getting everything from God that He wants us to have.

Dave:
Yes, again, my point... 

Sis Donna Perine:
Increase *my* faith, Oh Lord, that all things will be
>possible in my life.

Dave:
Oh no...another sacred cow saying...Sis Donna, why should we
ask the Lord to "Increase our faith" when we need to use what
we have? He has given to every man the ":measure of faith"? See
Romans 12:3. So are you using the measure given to you? You
have to build your faith, just like a person works out with weights 
to build his muscles. Mix your faith with the Word and your faith
will be built up...also, pray in the Holy Ghost more often...this will
build your faith See Jude 20
