Claiming Bible Verses – Eric Metaxas
Another version of the “Prosperity Gospel” or “Name It and Claim It” teaching has to do with finding a verse in the Bible and then “claiming” that verse. Proponents of this thinking believe that God must fulfill his promise to us in whatever verse we are “claiming”… We need to have faith in what the Bible says, but we have to be careful that we aren’t trying to force God to do what we want. That is arrogance rather than humility. God loves us, but we cannot demand things of him as though our faith is in charge rather than God.

The Greatest Act of Faith – Paul Washer
You ask me, “What’s the greatest act of faith?” To me is to look in the mirror of God’s Word, and see all my faults, all my sins, all my shortcomings and to believe that God loves me exactly as He says He does.
