"For we walk by faith, not by sight."   2 Corinthians 5:7.  NKJV

We walk, not by what we see in the natural, but what we see in the supernatural. 
Bob Gass says, 'Don't look at the obvious but the actual.' 
We need to act by what the Word says even when it may not agree in the natural. Confess it and faith will rise up in you and take care of what you can't see. In other words, allow the Holy Spirit to create 'Power pictures,' within you.

'While we do not look at the things which are seen but at the things which are not seen. For the things that are seen are temporary but the things that are not seen are eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:18.). In fact, things such as this, are subject to change and that is the whole idea of faith. 

Smith Wigglesworth used to say, 'If God said it, I believe it and that settles it.' Things may seem dire but faith can change that. A word of warning here though; at times, when God answers our prayers, the answer may not be what we expected. We may pray that someone is healed from a particular infirmity, such as being wheel chair bound. God may well heal the person - to a degree; but leave the person still requiring a wheel chair, for a reason. 

Joni Eareckson-Tada is an example. She broke her spine in a diving accident when she was 17 and despite many prayers she has spent nearly 60 years in her wheel chair. However, God has used her disability to come alongside many other people in similar circumstances. She is a regular Christian speaker and author, although she lives as a quadriplegic.

She was also diagnosed in 2013 with breast cancer - the non-aggressive type, but she still carries on with her ministry. You see, God knows best and knew Joni's heart and He has used her greatly. 

Does faith work? Yes it does and Joni would not have been able to reach the many thousands of people that she has, without being anointed and chosen by God.
Don't ever doubt God. He loves us and will always show us the way forward.
