<strong>Attack</strong> <strong>Your</strong> <strong>Lack</strong><br />

an "inner image" in which he began to see himself in his<br />

spirit as being prosperous before he ever was. THEN<br />

when he said it with his mouth, it was the words of his<br />

spirit and his faith that he based on the absolute reality<br />

of what God had said about him, Charles Capps, a poor<br />

dirt farmer.<br />

At the time, outwardly he had nothing. Actually,<br />

less than nothing. His body was sick. He owed the bank.<br />

Other debts covered him. His land was poor. Between<br />

sickness bouts he barely had the strength to farm and<br />

get seed in the ground. Worst of all he had no hope of<br />

this ever changing. He could see no light at the end of<br />

the tunnel.<br />

Solomon said, "Hope deferred makes the heart sick"<br />

(Proverbs 13:12). Charles Capps' heart was sick, and<br />

therefore he was sick.<br />

But he had got hold of the Word of God on SEED-<br />

FAITH and it began to take root in him. While outward<br />

circumstances were still bleak, when he didn't know if<br />

he'd be able to borrow another dollar to farm another<br />

year or whether he'd be in bed sick or up long enough<br />

to plow and plant, he was confessing that he had given,<br />

and therefore "it was given to him!' He was saying, "I<br />

confess on the authority of the Word of God that my<br />

seeds of faith are planted. Therefore I have attacked my<br />

lack and I see myself in a state of receiving the health<br />

and the money. In my spirit I have the image of money<br />

being no problem in any area of my life."<br />
