Foreword
There are certain things that look different if you

look at them from different angles. Take, for
example, a house plan; if you look at it from the top
elevation, front elevation or from any of the sides of
the house, you will see different things. But you
cannot take one side and conclude that the side is
what the whole house looks like.
There is so much that has been taught about
faith which was only just one side of faith. "It is only
faith that moves God, not your tears," is one of the
popular and most accepted teaching on faith. I
cannot say such a teaching is wrong. It is just one
side of faith; it is half the truth. I believe that half-
truth can become false if it begins to be emphasized
as if it is the whole truth.
I have written this book to show you the other
side of faith, which I believe should be the
foundation of what we should know about faith.
Taking faith as a vehicle through which we receive
answers and miracles from God should be the basis
of all faith teachings, I believe.
However, as you begin to grow in faith and in
the knowledge of God, you many get to faith levels
which may seem like your faith actually moves God.
vi
I have had such experiences in my faith walk and I
think that is the level where most of our faith fathers
taught faith from. But if I try and teach you faith at
such a high level without having given you these
basic foundational truths on faith first, I will confuse
you.
The bottom line is that faith doesn't move God;
it is just a receiver of miracles from God.
I know, there is a different side of faith where it
feels and looks like your faith is really moving God.
At this level it becomes difficult to know if it is your
faith moving God or not. It takes someone who has
a great understanding of the spiritual to tell the
difference. I shall talk about this in another book,
but for this book, let us get ourselves grounded on a
good foundation.
You cannot build a strong house without having
made a strong foundation first. You cannot rise in
faith if you are not grounded on the sound faith
teaching that I have written in here.
I always like to tell people that whatever I teach
on any topic is not everything that exists on such a
topic. But the lessons in this book are very good for
every believer to get grounded on a strong faith
foundation.

Chapter 1
Faith Is a Receiver
After you have finished reading this book your

faith shall increase and you shall begin to see
tremendous results out of it. Faith is very easy to
operate in but we (preachers) have made it so
difficult by the way we have presented it. Jesus said
that even little faith as small as a mustard seed can
work great miracles.
Now, let's talk about this. Does faith move God?
Many will say yes and will even go to the extent of
getting upset with me for saying that it does not
move God. There are so many teachings we have
accepted and taught without even bothering to
verify them with the bible.
Does faith move God or does it move a human
being towards the word of God? If you cannot
differentiate between the two then you have a faith
problem. Actually, the bible never said faith moves
God. It only said it can move a mountain.
If faith moves God then why is it that we have
so many Christians who complain that God did not
answer their prayers which they prayed in faith? As
a preacher I get these 'complains' a lot of times.

Munashe Soka
"Pastor, I don't understand faith at all. There was

a time when I had a lot of faith that I was going to
get a certain job but I was never called to the
interview at all."
"Pastor, how do I encourage my friend? She was
strongly believing for a financial breakthrough to
pay her rentals by the end of the month. The month
came to an end and no breakthrough showed up.
She kept believing for several more days but no
miracle happened. Now she has been kicked out of
the apartment. As I am speaking she is angry at God
for not responding to her faith. I know she had so
much faith but God didn't act. How do I encourage
her?"
"Pastor, does God really answer to faith or is it
just by luck that some miracles happen? I can't tell
you how many times I have raised my faith to
receive my miracle when preachers were declaring
the word of God, but no miracle ever happened.
Should I keep believing that one day God shall
respond to my faith?"
I have just written very few of the concerns and
questions that are normally raised by people who
had 'too much' faith which didn't work. When I was
still in high school I used to respond to such
questions with statements like, "You didn't had faith
enough. You need to raise your faith higher than
9
Faith Doesn’t Move God
that."
Now that I have walked with the Lord for some
time, my perspective on faith has changed. If
someone says, 'I had strong faith Pastor...' I no longer
tell them that they didn't have the highest amount of
faith that God required. I now look at it with a
different view.
Through much study of the bible and of
different faith teachings, I have come to a conclusion
that faith does not move God at all. God has already
moved with our answer and He is waiting on us to
respond in faith and receive that answer.
Faith is a tool that we use to collect miracles
from God. We are the ones who are supposed to
collect or receive from God. We do not use faith as a
way to make God give us anything. God has already
provided grace for anything we want. Faith is a
receiver of miracles. This is going to get clearer to
you as you shall read on in the following chapters.
Faith receives
James 1 : 6-7 (NKJV)

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for
he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven
and tossed by the wind. For let not that man
10
Munashe Soka
suppose that he will receive anything from

the Lord;
There is something James is trying to get

through to us about faith. If you can get to
understand faith with James' perspective you will be
amazed at the results your faith shall produce.
In those verses there is a key to miracle
producing faith. James says, 'let him ask in faith
without doubting...' When most Christians read that
statement they quickly run ahead of the bible and
form their own powerless doctrines. They begin to
see faith as something you do to be seen by God so
that He will answer.
That is not the understanding James had when
it came to faith. He wasn't saying you should ask in
faith so that God will respond to that faith. Let's read
on as James gives his reason for asking in faith
without doubting.
About the man who doubts James then says, 'let
not that man suppose that he will receive.....' Let's
end there. James is trying to say that if you do not
ask in faith you will not receive anything from God.
Now, the problem arises when a Christian reads
that with a wrong mind-set about faith. If you are
someone who believes that faith moves God you will
give wrong interpretation to what James is saying. I
11
am saying this because I used to have a wrong

understanding of faith.
Whenever I would read that verse I would then
think that James is saying that if you do not ask in
faith you must never think that God will give you
anything. I was wrong and that is why I used to have
trouble with my faith; sometimes it would produce
results but sometimes it would not. I had defined it
wrongly.
James in that scripture mentioned nothing about
God refusing to give us our answers because we do
not ask in faith. James said that if you do not ask in
faith do not ever think that you will RECEIVE
anything from God. The issue here is about YOU
failing to receive NOT about God refusing to give.
Did you get the picture? Let's say I am holding a
gift in my hand and then I stretch my hand towards
you in order to give to you that gift, what must you
do to get that gift from my hand?
You simply have to stretch your hand and
RECEIVE what I am giving you. If you do not stretch
your hand to receive the gift from my hand it will
remain with me. This is the idea that James is trying
to get across to our minds. God has already stretched
His miracle filled hand towards us but those
miracles will remain with Him unless we also stretch
our hands of faith to receive.
12
Munashe Soka
Faith does not make God give us anything. God

gives us things based upon His own grace and love.
Faith acts as a receiver of those miracles. If you fail
to receive with your faith what God has already
handed to you it does not mean that God did not
give you.
You use your faith towards things that God has
already given. The problem with some people is that
they want to use their faith to make God do
something. If you do so you will get nothing.
13
Chapter 2
God Already Moved
1 Peter 2 : 24 (NKJV)
who Himself bore our sins in His own body on
the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live
for righteousness—by whose stripes you were
healed.
Faith for healing has been something that

troubled me some years ago when I was still a
teenager. I had believed the scripture on 3 John 2
which says, "Beloved, I wish above all things that
you prosper and be in health..." That became my
reason for not wanting any form of sickness and
pain in my body because I knew God wanted us to
be in health.
Despite my strong belief in divine health, my
faith seemed to fail me sometimes. I would at times
catch a flue, felt some pain in my body, have a
stomach ache or headache and at some point I got
malaria.
I had one faith formula for dealing with all those
sicknesses which used to fail and discourage me.
Sometimes it would work but many of the times it
14
Munashe Soka
would not.
When it comes to applying faith for healing I
would say, "Father in the name of Jesus I believe that
your word reveals to us that it is your wish that we
be in health. I refuse to have this headache in the
name of Jesus. Health is my portion and headache
has no power in my body in Jesus' name!"
Such a prayer would work only few of the times
and that used to confuse me because I did all my best
to apply faith based on the word of God. I knew that
the bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing by
the word of God. But the more I apply my faith the
less I saw results.
There was nothing wrong with the kind of
prayer and affirmation that I used to do. In fact, that
is how you can voice your faith in the word of God.
Regardless of me being correct in applying my faith
in the word of God, I was wrong in my perspective
of faith.
My thinking or my motive for having that faith
was what was wrong. I used to think that if I applied
faith then God would see my faith and heal me. I had
true faith but applied it with wrong motives. In other
words, I prayed amiss.
15
What Was Wrong With My Faith?
As I have said, my motive for having faith was

so that God would look at my faith and heal me. I
applied faith in order to convince God to move. That
is not the purpose of faith.
I had one verse in the bible that I had
understood in a wrong way. I had read Hebrews
11:6 which says that without faith it is impossible to
please God. So I thought faith is what moves God. I
was wrong and In know that there are many people
who think that Hebrews 11:6 is about moving God
with our faith. No. I shall explain it in the following
chapters.
One day the Holy Spirit helped me understand
faith better when I was diagnosed with malaria. I
was sick for about three days and was in bed all that
time. I had some prescribed medication that I was
taking those three days.
Because I believed in divine health, I was very
embarrassed for being in bed and taking medication.
I had confessed the word of God on healing since
day one but my body never recovered. I confessed 1
Peter 2:24 a lot of the times but no healing happened.
On the third day of my sickness, I had become
so tired of being sick and in bed. I really wanted a
healing miracle to happen. I prayed a prayer of faith
16
Munashe Soka
for healing and then started confessing 1 Peter 2:24

which ends with the words, "by his stripes you were
healed."
I would say, "I declare that I am healed by the
stripes of Jesus. I refuse sickness. I refuse to have any
disease reign in my body. Healing is my portion. By
the stripes of Jesus I am healed, in the name of Jesus."
Again there was nothing wrong my my faith
confession. The only problem with my confession
was my motive for saying that. I thought if I apply
faith like that God would see it and move in with
healing for my body.
As I was getting tired of saying that the Holy
Spirit reminded me of what I was saying. I was
saying, 'by his stripes I am healed' quoting scripture.
I felt the Holy Spirit said to me, "If you were healed
by the stripes of Christ why are you still lying there
in bed as if you are still sick?"
That is when all lights went on in my mind as
far as faith is concerned. I was very close to having
true faith but I missed it when I thought it would be
God's job to heal me because I had faith. No. The
scripture I was quoting was just telling me that God
healed us already when Christ was smitten. Healing
was something that God had already done 2000
years ago when Jesus hang on the cross.
Quoting scripture was now my duty in order to
17
receive the healing that has been given already.

When the Holy Spirit spoke to me, I did not bother
to argue with Him, I instantly rose from the bed and
started walking around thanking God for my
healing. As I thanked God I was still feeling pain and
weakness but I kept on thanking God for healing me
and confessing the same scripture.
This time around my thanksgiving and
confession was no longer for the purpose of trying
to manipulate God into healing me. I was now doing
it in perfect faith; faith that receives miracles from
God. I knew God had sent healing already because
of the stripes of Christ. God was done with us as far
as healing was concerned, It was now our turn to just
collect the healing we have been given.
As I continued in thanksgiving (but still feeling
sick) my thanksgiving prayer convinced my mind to
believe that I was healed regardless of what I was
feeling. I stayed with that healing consciousness in
my mind until after a few minutes when I suddenly
realized that I was no longer sick. All the pain was
gone and could not even tell what time the sickness
departed.
Let me tell you this right away; God has already
moved in your life with all the answers and miracles
that you want from Him. There is nothing you will
pray for that God has not made available to us
18
Munashe Soka
(unless you pray for something He did not mention

in the word).
The reason why we pray for the things we pray
for is because we are sure that it is God's will to give
us those things. Jesus died in order to restore us to
life in abundance. His death purchased salvation for
us and that salvation contains everything we need
for life. Through the death, burial and resurrection
of Christ, health, prosperity and well-being has been
granted us.
Ephesians 1 : 11 (NKJV)
In Him also we have obtained an inheritance,
being predestined according to the purpose of
Him who works all things according to the
counsel of His will,
The word says we have obtained an inheritance

in Christ. What is that inheritance? All the blessings
of Abraham belongs to us. All that Jesus obtained
when He died and rose again belongs to us. Jesus
was given a name that is above all names and He has
granted us permission to use that name to access
anything we want from God.
We use faith to receive what we have already
been given. We can't keep begging God to give us
things that He has already given us. Do you now
19
understand faith? It is not yet enough, let us talk

more in the next chapters.
20
Chapter 3
Grace Saved Us And Worked Everything

For Us
I said in chapter 1 that God is moved by His love

and grace; not by our faith. John 3:16 is one of the
most popular scriptures in the New Testament. It
says, "For God so loved the world that He gave......."
You can finish the scripture in your mind but I trust
you saw what I wanted you to see.
God loved the world and that love moved Him
to give the world something. There is a popular
saying that goes, 'love is not love until you give it
away.' The King James Version uses the word
'charity' for love on several scriptures. I like that
word because charity can be defined as love that
expresses itself.
God is love. God is charity. God's love moved
Him to give us His only begotten Son. You know
what; when God gave us His Son He had given us
everything that we would ever pray for.
When Jesus came to the world, He did not come
empty handed. He came with healing for the sick,
21
deliverance to the oppressed, sight to the blind, the

good news to the poor and, above all, salvation for
all humanity.
Jesus did so many mighty miracles. He
addressed so many issues in people's lives. He
mended marriages, healed broken families, brought
breakthroughs to businesses (of those fishermen
who had spent all night catching nothing), and Jesus
even addressed financial issues and many things
that trouble mankind.
Truly, by God's own act of love the whole world
was changed forever. The mighty hand of God had
been stretched towards us.
My question is this: what kind of faith did
people applied in order to have God send Jesus?
Nothing. No one had applied any faith. It was God
who chose to send Jesus to us just out of His own
love and grace. The love of God is what moves God;
not your faith.
Mark 1 : 40-41 (NKJV)

Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him,
kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, “If
You are willing, You can make me clean.”
Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched
out His hand and touched him, and said to
him, “I am willing; be cleansed.”
22
Munashe Soka
If you check that scripture, the leper who came

to Jesus had one problem. He wanted to believe God
for his healing but he was not sure if it was God's
will to heal him. However, he had all faith that Jesus
can heal if he wants. He never doubted the power of
healing that Jesus had but what he wasn't sure of
was whether or not Jesus was willing to heal him
specifically.
The bible then says Jesus was moved with
compassion and touched him (in order to show him
love) and told him that, "I am willing; be cleansed."
The part I want you to get is that part that says
Jesus was moved by compassion in order to release
healing. It was not this man's faith that moved Jesus
but Jesus' own compassion. The man's faith was only
for the purpose of receiving the healing that is
already been granted.
The moment the man heard that Jesus was
willing to heal, he raised his faith and received his
healing. It was just a simple step of faith.
Grace Moved God
For by grace you have been saved through
faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of
God,
23
There is something powerful that we get from

Ephesians 2:8 there. The first part of the verse says,
"by grace you have been saved...". This statement
alone contains all that you need to understand about
how God works.
How did God save us? It was by grace that we
were saved. The salvation being talked about here is
more than what we think. The greek word translated
saved there actually means deliverance from
darkness and all things that belong to the kingdom
of darkness.
Sin belongs to the dark and evil world of the
devil. Poverty belongs there; sickness belongs there,
and all misfortune and curses belong there. By grace
God has brought to us deliverance from sin, spiritual
death, sickness, poverty, demonic bondages and the
like.
Most of the things we use faith for are in the
bracket of the things grace has given to us. Grace
delivered us from sin and brought to us the
righteousness of God. Grace delivered us from
sickness and brought healing to us by the stripes of
Christ. Grace delivered us from poverty by making
Jesus poor on the cross so that the blessing and
riches of Abraham might come on us.
On the cross of Christ it was grace that was
24
Munashe Soka
working all things and sorting out our deliverance.
Colossians 2 : 14-15
having wiped out the handwriting of
requirements that was against us, which was
contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the
way, having nailed it to the cross. Having
disarmed principalities and powers, He made a
public spectacle of them, triumphing over them
in it.
Through Faith
Let us now get to the faith side of the grace-faith
equation. Grace is what saved us. Grace is the
working of God on our behalf. Faith is now the
response that we (people) do in order to receive
what grace has provided.
God brought us deliverance but for us to be
delivered or to have that deliverance work in our
lives we need to access it by faith. The second part of
that verse says that we were saved, "through faith...."
As soon as Paul mentioned faith he quickly
added, "and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of
God..." There is something you need to understand
about what Paul is talking about. Paul is trying to
say that God worked on his own without being
moved by anything that you have done. It is not
25
your faith that moved God; it was His own grace

that moved Him.
The purpose of faith is for us to access or collect
what God has given. Jesus has been given to the
whole world. Jesus died for the whole world and
made salvation available to the whole world by
God's grace.
However, because Jesus has made salvation
available to everyone does not mean that everyone
is now saved. The world needs to do something in
order to receive that salvation in their lives. That
something is the faith action. We use our faith to
receive Jesus. We do not use our faith to make God
give us Jesus or salvation because He has already
done that by His own grace.
Faith Speaks In This Way
Romans 10 : 6-8 (NKJV)

But the righteousness of faith speaks in this
way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will
ascend into heaven?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ
down from above) or, “ ‘Who will descend into
the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from
the dead). But what does it say? “The word is
near you, in your mouth and in your heart”
(that is, the word of faith which we preach):
26
Munashe Soka
If you cannot get anything out of this book then

just get only this part of the book and let the above
scripture stay with you. It says that the
righteousness of faith does not even think of trying
to move Jesus out of heaven in order to make Him
come to save us.
Real faith is when you know that Jesus no longer
need to move anymore to come with our salvation.
The word that gives you salvation or anything you
want from God is in your heart and in your mouth.
Paul then ends the verse by saying, "this is the word
of faith that we preach."
Do you want to have the kind of faith that the
Apostles had? Then you must stop thinking that
your faith can move God. God moved already, your
miracle is a done deal. The only piece of the puzzle
left is the word of faith in your heart and in your
mouth that simply receives what God has already
given you.
Paul was talking about Salvation in those verses.
He was telling his followers that faith for salvation
does not mean you are trying to make God move out
of heaven and save you. Faith for salvation is when
you simply open your mouth and receive the Lord
Jesus as your Saviour and you will be saved.
27
The Same Way You Received Salvation
Colossians 2 : 6-7 (NKJV)

As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the
Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in
Him and established in the faith, as you have
been taught, abounding in it with
thanksgiving.
Colossians 2:6 is one of my most favourite

scriptures. It is very easy to understand because it
tells you the simplicity of walking with Christ. It
says that the same way or manner in which you
received Jesus is the same way that you should walk
in Him.
How did you receive Jesus? You used faith and
prayed the prayer of Salvation in faith; and at that
moment you knew very well that you were saved.
You never felt saved but you just knew deep down
in your heart that you are now born again into God's
family. You had simple faith in the work of Christ.
You knew that Christ had died for your sins and all
you needed to do was to believe in Him and receive
Him.
Now that you want healing or anything from
God, why is it that you now think that you have to
do some faith in order to make God heal you?
28
Munashe Soka
Why can't you just relate with Christ the same

way you related with Him when you received Him
as your saviour? You used simple faith. You knew
that your salvation was a done deal and Christ has
already died for you and made salvation available to
you.
Why don't you use the same kind of faith now?
Your healing is a done deal. Your financial
breakthrough is a done deal. Your marriage is a
done deal. Just use the same simple faith you used
at salvation and pray a prayer to receive that
healing. Once you pray to receive, believe that you
have received and allow the peace of God rule in
your heart.
I trust you now understand something about
faith at this point. But we are not yet through with
this subject; there is still more about faith that you
still need to know.
29
Chapter 4
Faith Pleases God
Hebrews 11 : 6 (NKJV)
But without faith it is impossible to please
Him, for he who comes to God must believe
that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those
who diligently seek Him.
This is one scripture that kept making me think

that it is our faith that can move God into doing
things. After I understood faith I began to revisit
some of these scriptures that I used to base my
doctrine on. I hadn't noticed that the scripture said
nothing about moving God.
There are times when we keep our minds closed
to what God wants us to know simply because we
want to defend a certain religious tradition or
doctrine.
The above scripture says it very well that by
doing things in faith we can please God. There are
so many things that please God but it is only when
you do those things in faith that you can please God.
Uprightness and holiness pleases God but only
when you use faith to obtain and walk in
30
Munashe Soka
righteousness. Jesus said we should seek the

Kingdom of God and His righteousness (not our
righteousness). You can only have the righteousness
of God in you if you have received it by faith.
What does it mean to please God? To please
means to make someone happy or to satisfy
someone. If you approach God in faith you make
Him happy. God is happy when you receive
anything from Him in faith.
God is pleased when you have faith because He
knows that when you have faith you can access
everything that He made available to you in Christ.
God is not happy when He sees His children
suffering in life. He loves to see you in health, in
prosperity, in peace and walking in righteousness.
When you do not have faith you will fail to receive
those things from God and God will not be happy to
see you suffering. When you have faith God is
happy because He knows by your faith you can get
anything He provided by the death, burial,
resurrection and ascension of Christ.
Jesus was pleased when the woman with the
issue of blood touched his garment and received her
healing without needing to be prayed for. The
woman had already received her healing just by
touching the herm of Jesus' garment by faith, and
because of that Jesus was pleased by her and drew
31
everyone's attention on her.
Believe That He Is
I want us to look more closely on Hebrews 11:6.
It starts by saying without faith it is impossible to
please Him. And it goes on to say that the one who
comes to God must believe two things:
1. He is, and
2. He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek
him
Those two things are different. The thing you

need to do to please God is to believe that He is. You
may think that statement is incomplete. It is very
complete as it is. You must believe that God is.
The word 'is' is in present tense. The past tense
of that word is 'was' and the future tense of that
word is 'shall be' or 'will be'.
In the beginning chapters of the book of Exodus
when God called Moses, He told him that when the
elders of Israel ask him about who had sent him he
shall say to them, 'I AM' has sent me. Again that is
in the present tense. God did not say, 'I shall be'; He
said, 'I AM'.
Faith means believing the present tense of
anything that you want from God. By faith you do
not say, "I shall be healed." You say, "I am already
32
Munashe Soka
healed. I have received my healing."

When you come to God thinking that He SHALL
answer your prayer or He SHALL move with a
miracle you will miss it. If you think your faith
SHALL move God you will miss it.
When you come to God in faith you must
believe after your prayer that He HAS answered
you, He HAS already healed you. He HAS already
provided for you. He HAS already intervened in
your situation. He HAS already provided a husband
for you. He HAS already given you a child.
If you come to God believing that He IS you
please Him. When I was confessing the word of God
about me being healed and expecting to see God
healing me I was missing it. I was believing that God
SHALL heal me instead of believing that He HAS
healed me and that I needed only to receive the
Healing.
He IS A Rewarder Of Those Who Diligently Seek

Him
This is the part I used to have problems with. I
had not read the bible well. In my mind I thought
the writer was talking about faith that can move God
to reward us on this last part. I thought that God
would reward those who had faith and that is why I
always tried to use my faith to make God do
33
something for me.

For me to give you a better picture of this part of
Hebrews 11, let me switch you over to Mark 11 and
shed more light on this part.
Believe That You Receive
Mark 11 : 24 (NKJV)
Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask
when you pray, believe that you receive them,
and you will have them.
I love the structure and wording of this verse. It

says when you pray believe that you receive and you
shall have. There are two things that may sound as
if they don't agree: the receiving part and the having
part.
If you receive something it means you have it,
but Jesus here is talking as if receiving and having
are two different things that happen at different
times. It seems in that scripture that the receiving
part is in the present tense but the having part is in
the future tense: 'and you shall have them'.
Is Jesus trying to say if I receive my miracle now
it does not mean I have it? No. It means two things:
it means you have it and you shall have it. The idea
is the same with Hebrews 11:6 where you believe
that God is (has done it in the present tense) and that
34
Munashe Soka
He is a rewarder (the reward that comes in the future

to those who seek Him.) Let me explain.
God is a Spirit and lives in the spiritual realm.
Anything He says in the spiritual realm becomes
physical and tangible in the physical world. The
spiritual world is more real than this physical world
even though we do not see it. If you are blind it
doesn't mean the things that you do not see are not
real.
We live both in the physical world and in the
spiritual world because we have a spirit and a body.
Anything that you have in your physical life was
first of all given to you in the spiritual world. Mind
you, even the devil lives in the spiritual world and
can put some sicknesses on you in the spiritual
world which will later manifest in your physical life.
All physical things began in the spiritual world.
The spiritual world is more real than this physical
world. It is that spiritual world that controls this
natural tangible world.
Have you noticed that you can dream of
someone dying and then later on that person dies?
In your dreams you were in the spiritual world and
death happened there. Because death had happened
there it had no choice than to happen here in the
physical also (unless someone spiritual stops it in the
spiritual realm). Whatever is in the spiritual world is
35
the real thing.

This is why you need to master the world of
dreams. If you can fight in a dream and win you will
also win in the physical. One day I had this dream in
which someone was stealing my phone from my
pocket. The thief reached his hand into my pocket
and held my phone. Before he had fished it out I
grabbed his hand.
This man's hand had was stronger than mine
and so my phone was slowly coming off my pocket
as we wrestled with our hands. In that dream I knew
that I was in a dream and that if I wake up with this
man having stolen my phone it means I would have
been defeated both in the spiritual and natural. So I
started striking his hand with my fist and pinching
his hand (which was about to fish out my phone
from my pocket).
The thief finally felt hurt and moved his hand
out of my pocket, leaving my phone. However, he
wanted to just relieve himself of the pain I had
caused him and then reach out his hand to try his
luck again. In that dream I knew his motives and
before he had made another move I woke up.
When I woke up I knew I had won the battle
with the thief. I had corrected something that the
enemy was about to do to me in the spiritual world.
If he had stolen something from me in that spiritual
36
Munashe Soka
realm there would be nothing more I would do to

win in the physical.
Sometimes when you have bad dreams where
you lose something and then wake up, prayers may
help but they may not be enough to recover what
you lost. The best thing to recover those blessings is
for you to get back into the spiritual world of dreams
and recover whatever you have lost. I mean sleep
and dream again. Fight until you win. Use the power
of imagination to dream again what you want.
My point here is that the spiritual world is more
real than this natural world we live in. When you
pray in faith, Jesus said you must believe that you
have received whatever you are believing for.
The receiving of those things happen in the
spiritual realm. You receive that job in the spirit.
Faith receives things and when you believe that you
receive keep convincing your mind that you have
received.
When I prayed and received healing, I wasn't
feeling healed but my faith knew that I had been
healed. I believed strongly in the spiritual world and
I knew that whatever is in the spirit is what is real.
At that moment my sickness was fake. I began to say
that I am healed and sickness is no longer a part of
me.
I was saying it from a genuine heart, my mind
37
was convinced that my sickness was all fake and that

my healing which I believed I had received in the
spirit was what was real. God lives in the spiritual
world. If you want to please Him talk to Him as if
you are in the same world with Him. If He says you
are healed then that's it; you are healed.
Now the having part Jesus talked about is when
that thing you believed you had received is now
manifesting in your physical life. This is why the
having part has been placed in the future tense. God
lives in the present tense, but we, on this earth, live
in a world that has past, present and future.
However, the spiritual world is the real world.
When you come to God, you must believe that
He is (you believe the present tense that you have
whatever you want from Him now) and then you
must believe that He is a rewarder (this is now the
physical manifestation of what you had received in
the spiritual).
So first of all, you receive the answer in the spirit
by faith and secondly you shall see the physical
manifestation of it later on. The time between you
receiving the answer (the real answer in the spirit)
and you having to see it physically in your life is
what we call patience.
Patience is when you are waiting to physically
see something that you know you have already
38
Munashe Soka
received spiritually. Faith and patience go hand in

hand because of the two worlds we live in. Faith has
more to do with receiving things from the spiritual
world. Patience has more to do with you waiting to
see what you have received manifesting in the
natural or physical world.
If your answer has not yet manifested in the
natural, it does not mean you don't have it. Having
it in the spirit is having it for real. The devil and all
demons will know that you have received it because
they can see you with it in the spirit.
But since the devil knows that you do not have
spiritual eyes that can see in the spirit, he normally
comes with his lies and false statements telling you
that you still don't have the answer; so that you lose
your faith. This is the part where you should keep
and maintain your faith confession, otherwise you
can lose what you had already received.
Maintaining your faith confession is defending
yourself from the lies of the devil. The time you take
defending your answer in faith before it manifests
physically is what is called patience.
above all, taking the shield of faith with which
you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of
the wicked one.
39
Chapter 5
Abundance of Grace
Romans 5 : 17 (NKJV)
For if by the one man’s offense death reigned
through the one, much more those who receive
abundance of grace and of the gift of
righteousness will reign in life through the
One, Jesus Christ.)
One key that is missing in people who have non-

working faith is knowledge of where they should
direct their faith. You just need to shift your focus
from a faith that moves God to a faith that receives
what God has provided.
All the things that we want from God are given
to us through His grace. There is grace for business,
for finances, for healing, for wisdom, for direction,
for marriage and for so many things in life. The more
grace you receive the better you become in life.
God has provided for all of our needs by His
grace. It now depends on how much you shall collect
40
Munashe Soka
from His grace banks. It is your faith and the level of

your faith that determines the amount of grace you
can collect.
Paul said those who receive abundance of grace
are the ones who shall reign in life. Have you ever
seen preachers who perform miracles like as if you
are watching a movie? They have received
abundance of grace for miracles. I have seen my own
spiritual father, Bishop Chako, performing miracles
that left me asking, "Is this a human being or an
angel?"
The key to receive abundance of grace is in your
faith level and your knowledge about God's grace.
The more you know the grace of God the more you
know what has been made available to you in Christ.
Knowledge of the word of God increases faith and
thereby increasing your chances of receiving
abundance of grace.
The Grace of Righteousness
2 Corinthians 5 : 21 (NKJV)
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin
for us, that we might become the righteousness
of God in Him.
You may not want to accept it but there are

Christians who do not struggle with sin at all. They
41
have ceased their struggle with sin the moment they

understood the grace of righteousness and collected
abundance of grace in that area.
Righteousness is a gift that God gave to
everyone in Christ. The moment you received Jesus
as your Saviour you were blessed with the
righteousness of Christ in your spirit. When God
sees you He sees a righteous person like Jesus.
Remember, the spiritual is more real than the
natural.
Just because you do not see the spiritual does
not mean it is not real. The spiritual is more real
because it is ever new, whereas this natural world
gets corrupted with time. In this realm people get
old and die; trees die, buildings and cars depreciate
in value and gets worn out with time, whatever is
build and made by made has a lifespan in this
physical world.
The spiritual is ever new. The bible says if
anyone is in Christ he is a new creation. Since we
have come to Christ our spirits were made new and
until today we are still as new and righteous as when
we were born again. Our spiritual world is the real
world.
What differentiates fake gold from real gold?
Fake gold gets worn out with time whereas real gold
does not. There are jewelleries that are sold as gold
42
Munashe Soka
which are not gold at all. If you buy such a watch

you will notice the gold colour vanishing away with
time and a copper material or any other metal
beginning to show up. That's fake gold.
Nothing on this earth stays new forever because
this world is the fake version of our real spiritual
world. If you believe that you have been made
righteous in Christ you get to see yourself as such.
You will always tell yourself that you are the
righteousness of God in Christ. The more you
believe in who you are, the real you, the less sin
becomes a problem to you. You begin to find
yourself living right.
If you use faith to access and receive the grace of
righteousness it becomes very possible to live
without sinning. The more grace of righteousness
you have the less you sin.
Those who receive abundance of this grace they
reign over sin.
The Grace of Spiritual Blessings
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual
blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
What does it mean to be blessed? It means a lot
43
of good things: favour, peace, riches, health, honour,

wellbeing, success and so many good things. The
bible says we have been blessed with all spiritual
blessings.
Receive this grace by faith. Begin to see yourself
blessed. When you do, you will start talking favor
always. You will always talk about succeeding in
whatever you do. You will not talk fear. You will see
yourself blessed.
You will never talk lack or weakness. You will
talk strength because you will know that you have
been blessed. The more you increase your faith in
this area the more you see abundance of this type of
grace.
The Grace of Power and Divine Energy
Colossians 1 : 29 (NKJV)
To this end I also labor, striving according to
His working which works in me mightily.
Paul understood that the dynamic power of God

was in him because of the Holy Spirit who dwells in
us. He understood the spiritual gifts that God had
given him.
Because of his understanding of this grace of the
power of the Holy Ghost in us he laboured so much.
He worked for God like nobody else. He knew he
44
Munashe Soka
could do all things through Christ who strengthens

him.
Sometimes you have to work out your faith
when you know you have the divine energy to do
what you need to do.
In Bible College I used to clean toilets, the
chapel, the passage, the chairs, windows and
sometimes the offices of our admin. It was the duty
of all students to do some manual work before
lessons. Our duty as students was to clean the chapel
mainly, and sometimes, the toilets.
Our teachers used to say that if you do this work
you will receive grace. So most of my classmates
would laugh at that and say that they were already
anointed and they can't be manipulated to believe
that anointing comes by cleaning chairs and
windows.
Because I loved whatever we were learning at
Bible College I did not find it funny to clean the
chapel or toilets. Our teachers were all anointed
ministers of the gospel and they had so many
spiritual gifts and grace that I did not have. The
spiritual gifts and anointing that was imparted to me
since day one was very notable in my life, and so I
wanted to return the favour by obeying their
instructions.
Because my classmates refused to do the humble
45
work, I was left alone to do it. I would be the first

student to arrive at the school in the morning and do
all the work that nobody wanted to do.
It was not easy work at all since I needed to do
it all alone. It would have been easier if my
classmates would also come early to do it.
However, for the three years that I was at the
College I did all the work by myself except for a few
weeks in which a friend of mine joined me.
Some of our teachers did not know that it was
one student doing all that because they would arrive
when all work was complete. What kept me fuelled
up and going for three years without complaining
was the grace of divine power and energy that
works within us.
The more I worked, the more I felt the anointing
rising within me and enabling me to do all the work
with unusual energy.
Each morning I would feel a certain power
within me helping me do all the work before lessons
began. If you have faith you can take advantage of
this grace in all the work that you do even at your
workplace. You can become the most productive
worker at your workplace just by taking advantage
of this grace.
Even in manifesting the gifts of the Holy Spirit
and the power of God, you need to take advantage
46
Munashe Soka
of the grace of power. Peter told the crippled beggar

at the gate beautiful that even though he had no
silver and gold, he had something within him that
could make the man walk. He had received
abundance of grace in the area of the miracle
working power of God.
The Grace of Giving
2 Corinthians 8:1-3 (ESV)

We want you to know, brothers, about the
grace of God that has been given among the
churches of Macedonia, for in a severe test of
affliction, their abundance of joy and their
extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of
generosity on their part. For they gave
according to their means, as I can testify, and
beyond their means, of their own accord,
Giving our monies to church takes a lot of grace.

If there is one thing many people do not like to hear
being preached about is giving. In many churches
giving of monies is not something everyone can
easily accept. It takes the highest level of faith to give
money to the work ministry.
Giving is a grace because it moves your faith so
much. The more you give, the more faith you will
have in God. It is God's way of helping your faith to
47
rise. You may have been asking for something that

requires a higher level of faith to receive and the
quickest way for your faith to reach that level is
when you give something that touches your heart.
I have seen this in life so many times. There are
times when I feel like my faith is struggling to
receive what I want to receive from God. If that
happens for some time then I know that I need to
give in order to release my faith. As soon as I give I
feel lighter and my faith becomes flexible to receive
what I want.
Giving tithes and offerings consistently can help
to keep your faith up. Sometimes God gives you
opportunities to stretch your faith even higher by
giving you another opportunity to give to the work
of God.
Giving is always painful. Do you think that it
did not pain God to give up His Son to die? It was
painful to God to see His Son suffer like that.
However, there is grace for giving that can make you
give something that you will never imagine giving.
Abraham gave Isaac, his only son whom he had
struggled so much to have. It was grace that made
him do that.
The grace of giving contains a blessing in it. The
blessing that you receive when you give is already
within you even before you give. But for that grace
48
Munashe Soka
to come into this physical world it takes giving

(because giving encourages faith).
The church of Macedonia gave even beyond
their means. The scripture there says they were in
extreme poverty. In other words, their blessings
were more in the spiritual world than in the physical
world.
They needed to do something to release those
blessings outside of their spirits into the physical
world. It takes a lot of faith to give when you are
poor because most of the time the money that you
have is all that you have to survive on.
Giving can break demonic strongholds over
your life. There is grace for financial breakthrough
within all of us but that grace remains inactive
unless we release it by giving.
We do not give in order to move God into doing
something; we give in order to move the grace that
has already been given us in the spiritual to come
out into our physical life. If you can check, Paul said
that giving was actually a work of grace at that
church.
Have you ever seen people who are given a
prophecy by a prophet of God like, "I am seeing you
owning your own car next year by this time," and as
soon as they hear that they run with their seed and
place at the altar? What are they doing? Are they
49
sowing seed in order to make God give them a car?

No.
They know that the car is already there in the
spiritual because the prophet saw it; and that it is
only a matter of time until the car manifest in the
physical. So they sow a seed in faith to release that
car out of the spiritual world; in order to see it in the
physical next year.
The Grace Of Christ like Character
Colossians 3 : 12 & 14 (NKJV)

Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved,
put on tender mercies, kindness, humility,
meekness, longsuffering; .........But above all
these things put on love, which is the bond of
perfection.
If you can see, Paul did not tell us to ask God to

give us those virtues mentioned there. The bible tells
us that the righteous shall live by faith and that
means true righteousness comes by and is
maintained by faith.
You therefore need faith to receive the good
characteristics of a Christian mentioned above. Paul
said, "Put on" mercies, kindness, humility, etc. We
use faith to receive (or to put on) all those things.
God has already given us those virtues within our
50
Munashe Soka
spirits when we were born again.

The grace of God meant that Christ came to live
in us and rubbed himself onto our spirits. All the
character of Christ is now in us. We do not have to
struggle in the area of patience, forgiveness,
humility or any other. If you see that you lack in any
of those areas, then 'put on' the character of Christ.
There is abundance of grace in that area. Receive it.
Remember the scripture in Romans 10 that we
read in the previous chapter. It says the word of faith
is in your heart and in your mouth. You have to
believe in your heart that the righteousness and
character of Christ has been deposited into your
spirit by grace.
Then you have to keep confessing with your
mouth that you are full of humility, love, kindness,
mercy, long-suffering, etc. Say it every day. Say it at
any time of the day. Say it when you have made a
mistake or when you have fallen into sin. Tell
yourself, "The righteousness of God is in me. I am
patient in the name of Jesus. I am full of love. I am
forgiving in the name of Jesus."
When you do that you are receiving abundance
of grace in that area and putting on the virtues of a
Christian.
51
The Grace of Peace
Colossians 3 : 15 (NKJV)
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to
which also you were called in one body; and be
thankful.
There are so many graces I did not talk about in

this book but the more you walk with the Lord and
study the bible you will open yourself to more and
more of the grace of God.
The scripture said we should let the peace of
God rule in our hearts. Having fear, anxiety about a
certain situation is a choice that you make. God has
given you peace but sometimes you do not allow His
peace to rule in your life. God said we should not
worry about tomorrow. If you find yourself
worrying then you are the one who should allow the
peace of God to rule in your heart.
Peace is something you need to receive by faith.
God has sent it already. Allow it to rule in your
heart. When you have peace, miracles happen. I
cannot tell you how many miracles God has done in
my life when I just allowed His peace to take charge
of my heart.
In this life we pass through different situations
and some may threaten us and those around us. It
52
Munashe Soka
may be difficult to focus when you are faced with

threatening situations but you can choose to allow
peace and let the word of faith in your mouth help
you to receive abundance of grace in this area.
Keep saying, "I believe God is in control. God
has made a way for me, and soon I shall come out.
The peace of God is full in my heart. I refuse to let
this situation rob me of my Joy in the Lord." Use faith
to receive abundance of grace in this area.
53
Chapter 6
He Gave Gifts Unto Men
Ephesians 4:8;11-12 (KJV)

Wherefore he saith, when he ascended up on
high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts
unto men........And he gave some, apostles; and
some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and
some, pastors and teachers. For the perfecting
of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for
the edifying of the body of Christ.
This is one of the most important subjects every

believer must know. I chose to quote the above
scripture from the King James Version not the New
King James Version that I have been referencing all
along. The New King James Version translators did
us a lot of injustice by adding two words which
changed the entire meaning of that scripture.
In the original King James Version which I quote
above, verse 11 says, "And he gave some,
Apostles....." That translation is the correct
translation of that scripture. However, the
54
Munashe Soka
translators of the New King James added the phrase,

"to be" between "some" and Apostles. The verse
began to sound like this, "He gave some to be
Apostles" as if Jesus was giving someone the gift of
being an Apostle. That was not the correct
translation of that verse.
The original King James Version, as I have
quoted, says, "He gave some, Apostles, Prophets...."
That then means that Jesus gave some people an
Apostle as a gift to them. That is the correct
translation of the scripture.
If you can check on verse 8, the scripture begins
by saying that when Jesus ascended on high he led
captivity captive and after that he gave gifts unto
men. That means the people of this earth were given
gifts. Everyone was given a gift by Jesus. Then those
people who were given gifts were divided into five
groups and each group was given a certain gift.
One group of people was given a gift called an
Apostle; another group was given a Prophet to be
their gift from Christ. The third was given an
Evangelist; the fourth group a Pastor; and the fifth
group was given a teacher as a gift that came to them
from Christ.
Do you go to church? Your Pastor is a gift to
your church. The Pastor does not have a gift of
pastoring, but rather, he himself is the gift of given
55
to his church as a Pastor. Do you get it.

Some churches were given an Apostle. If you are
part of a church in which your leader is an Apostle
then that man or woman is the gift that was given to
your church. Some churches were given a prophet,
while some were given a teacher.
Then there are other churches that are given two
gifts in one person. For example, you may have an
Apostle who is also a teacher at the same time.
Why Were These Gifts Given?
Verse 12 then says, "For the perfecting of the

saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying
of the body of Christ. "
These men and women of God, who are also

gifts given to the church, were given so that the
Christians may be perfected and be prepared to do
the work of ministry. If the bible says the saints need
to be perfected it means without those gifts (the
preachers of the gospel) the church is not complete
or perfect.
There is so much grace that all saints lack which
was given to these ministers so that they can give to
the church. If you want something from God, I said
56
Munashe Soka
you receive it by faith. You may pray in faith and

receive abundance of grace in any area that you
want.
However, there is some grace that was not put
on the inside of you. Such grace was placed in a man
or woman of God. When you want that grace you
need to turn your faith towards that man or woman
of God.
Sometimes you may pray for a car and use your
faith to receive it; then you begin to find out that the
car is not coming into the physical at all. Sometimes
that car may be in a man of God and you may just
need to believe in him to get it.
There is a scripture in the book of 2 Chronicles
that says you should believe in the prophets in order
for you to prosper. Most of the prosperity we want
has been put in a prophet and then God sent that
prophet or preacher to the church as a gift.
A gift is something that needs to be opened in
order for us to enjoy what is inside. Preachers cannot
be gifts if they do not have something we need inside
of them. Inside of your Pastor, Prophet, Apostle,
Teacher or Evangelist, there is great prosperity -
cars, houses, marriages, money, destinies,
businesses, properties, breakthroughs, and so many
things.
We no longer need to beg God by our faith to
57
have Him move into our lives with our prosperity.

The bible says we should just turn our faith towards
a prophet and we shall prosper. Believe His
prophets. If they lay their hand on you, you will
receive abundance of grace if you have the faith.
Do You Believe That The Man of God Has What

You Need?
if indeed you have heard of the dispensation of
the grace of God which was given to me for
you,
Did you see that? There is a certain dispensation

of grace or a divinely ordained order of grace that
was given to Paul so that the same grace could be
given to his church.
I wish if the church knew the amount of grace
and answers to their prayers which Paul carried.
Men and women of God carry certain graces and
blessings that you do not have. It is very biblical to
sow our seeds in their lives. Supporting them as they
do the work of ministry is a recipe for accessing
abundance of the grace they carry.
What you need is great faith in that man of God.
58
Munashe Soka
The devil fights your faith so much in this area

because he knows what you will get from them.
When someone comes to me for prayer,
sometimes I know in my heart if the person really
has faith or if he is just testing to see if I am really
anointed. Yes there are people who do that. They
give you prayer requests with a double mind and
thinking, "Let me try this man of God, maybe he can
heal me. I do not know but let me just try."
If you are like that it would be difficult to see the
anointing work in your life. The woman with the
issue of blood used her whole faith to draw power
even when Jesus had not released power on her. She
was really desperate for a miracle. When it comes to
men and women of God, it is your faith that matters
most than the man of God's faith.
Jesus had times where He told people that it was
their faith that had saved them. On some people He
had to say, "Let it be according to your faith." He
knew that when someone comes to a man of God,
their miracles depend mostly on their own faith
rather than the faith of the man of God.
"I Am Full Of The Anointing"

I do not forget this day when I preached a
message titled, "I am full of the anointing." I
preached it with so much passion and pain in my
59
heart. We had gone to a certain place where nobody

knew about me. It was so difficult gathering people
for church services in that place. They just could not
respond to the gospel.
What pained me was the problems they had
which I knew the grace in me could solve; sicknesses
which I knew the grace in me could heal. But the
challenge I had was with them believing that I had
their answers in me. One day Jesus had so much
trouble performing miracles in Judea where he grew
up. In his whole ministry, Jesus performed very few
miracles in his own country because people just
could not believe him with full faith.
If you come to a man of God wanting prayer
your faith in that man of God matters most. You
have to believe in that man of God's ability and
anointing because that is where God placed the
grace you need.
It is difficult for people to believe in a man of
God until they see him perform a miracle. But it is
difficult for the man of God to perform a miracle if
people who need miracles do not believe.
Normally God puts some people in our way
who have strong faith even if they have not seen us
performing miracles. Some of these people would be
people who are so desperate for a touch from God.
It becomes easy to demonstrate our anointing

through those people just so that the rest of the

people can now believe.
Let's say a preacher wants to release the
anointing through impartation on people, a wise
preacher will need to first look around the
congregation for someone who has high faith and
then lay his or her hand on that person. Normally
that person falls under the anointing and as soon as
that happen many people's faith goes up and the
anointing is released on everyone.
However, I am not saying you should wait to see
the preacher perform a sign or a wonder for you to
believe. You just have to keep your faith high in a
man of God. It does you a lot of good.
Matthew 9 : 28 (NKJV)
And when He had come into the house, the
blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to
them, “Do you believe that I am able to do
this?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” Then He
touched their eyes, saying, “According to your
faith let it be to you.”
Jesus wanted those blind men to turn their faith

in his ability and grace. When you are dealing with
a man or woman of God your faith must be in him
or her.
61
This is the same as what Peter said to the man at

the beautiful gate. He told the man to look on them,
to fix his eyes on the Apostles because that is where
his miracle would come.
Acts 3 : 4-6
And fixing his eyes on him, with John, Peter
said, “Look at us.” So he gave them his
attention, expecting to receive something from
them. Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do
not have, but what I do have I give you: In the
name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and
walk.”

Conclusion
I trust very well that you have grasped
something about faith and grace in this book.
Whatever you need from God has been given to you
already. Some of the things you want from God have
been deposited into your spirit and you just need to
enforce them into your physical life by speaking
words of faith.
Some of the things are all available to everyone
who is born again. You just have to pray prayers of
faith and receive them. Jesus said that if we ask we
receive. There is grace for asking and for you to tap
into this grace you just need to make a simple
request to God for something out of the things that
have been made available to us in Christ.
The inheritance is already yours and all you
need to do is to indicate to God that you now want
this and that specific thing immediately is made
available to you. For you to now have that thing in
your life you need faith. Faith receives those things
that you want to come to you.
Then there are other blessings which you do not
just receive in prayer before God because they may
have been deposited in the man of God that God has
placed in your life. Such things are received by faith
in the man or woman of God. By supporting him or
63
her in ministry, believing in him when he lays his or

her hand, believing the word that he or she preaches
and sowing seeds into his life, you will receive such
blessings God gave you through His servant.
Whenever you pray know that it is not your
faith that shall make God give you things. Things
that you want are made available to you by grace.
The more of the grace of God that you know, the
more grace you shall receive by faith.
I believe that from now on abundance of grace
shall be your portion.
