I'm willing to go by what the scripture says.
(Heb 11:1 KJV)  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen.
 substance=5287. hupostasis, hoop-os'-tas-is; from a comp. of G5259 and
G2476; a setting under (support), i.e. (fig.) concr. essence, or abstr.
assurance (obj. or subj.):--confidence, confident, person, substance.

Psa 2:8  Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine
inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
"Ask of me" John 16:24  Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask,
and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

Mark 11:24  Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when
ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

2 Cor 4:13  We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is
written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and
therefore speak;
 "I believed, and therefore have I spoken;" 

Joel 3:10  Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into
spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
 "let the weak say, I am strong." When I say I strong, being weak, the
world would say that a lie, but by faith I'm strong.

Isa 53:5  But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for
our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his
stripes we are healed.
Let the sick say, "with his stripes we are healed" 
1 Pet 2:24  Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree,
that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose
stripes ye were healed.

1 Pet 4:11  If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if
any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that
God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be
praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
"let him speak as the oracles of God"
oracles=3051. logion, log'-ee-on; neut. of G3052; an utterance (of
God):--oracle.

Job 27:4  My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter
deceit.

Job 33:3  My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips
shall utter knowledge clearly.

Your servant for Jesus sake,
Steven hall
