Faith removes limitations...It's that simple, really. But what is the true meaning of Faith? Here are some definitions given by notable personalities: "It is believing what you do not see; its reward is to see what you believe..." - St. Augustine (354–430) "It is synonymous with working hypothesis." - William James (1842–1910) "It is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." - St. Paul "Belief is nothing but a more vivid, lively, forcible, firm, steady conception of an object, than what the imagination alone is ever able to attain." - David Hume (1711–1776) Don’t all the above quotations suggest the attaining of desired ends through the power of an inner conviction based on a working hypothesis? Another term for this power is confidence.When you are so convinced about a thing or condition that it becomes as real to your mind as something tangible, then you know or grasp its essence or spirit. You "get it" and become confident about it. CONFIDENCE, therefore, is the esoteric meaning we seek. The confidence that motivates you to act. For without action your belief is ineffectual but by your works it is made perfect... James 2:22. Only they that have the confidence to take action can attain to Victory, which is the name of this dimension.
