Gloria Copeland — Ask In Confidence
Posted by admin | Filed under Gloria Copeland, Kenneth Copeland Ministries
John 15:7
KJV—If ye abide in me, and my words
abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it
shall be done unto you.
Amp—If you live in Me—abide vitally
united to Me—and My words remain in
you and continue to live in your hearts,
ask whatever you will and it shall be done
for you.
Moffatt—If you remain in me and my words
remain in you, then ask whatever you like
and you shall have it.
NEB—If you dwell in me, and my words
dwell in you, ask what you will, and you
shall have it.
1 John 5:14-15
KJV—And this is the confidence that
we have in him, that, if we ask any thing
according to his will, he heareth us: And if
we know that he hear us, whatsoever we
ask, we know that we have the petitions
that we desired of him.
Amp—And this is the confidence—the
assurance, the [privilege of] boldness—
which we have in Him: [we are sure] that
if we ask anything (make any request)
according to His will (in agreement with His
own plan) He listens to and hears us. And if
(since) we [positively] know that He listens to
us in whatever we ask, we also know [with
settled and absolute knowledge] that we
have [granted us as our present possessions]
the requests made of Him.
Moffatt—Now the confidence we have in
him is this, that he listens to us whenever we
ask anything in accordance with his will; and
if we know that he listens to whatever we
ask, we know that we obtain the requests
we have made to him.
NE B—We can approach God with confidence
for this reason: if we make requests
which accord with his will he listens to
us; and if we know that our requests are
heard, we know also that the things we ask
for are ours.

Gloria Copeland — Bind The Mountain, Loose Your Faith

Matthew 18:18-19
KJV—Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever
ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in
heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on
earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say
unto you, That if two of you shall agree on
earth as touching any thing that they shall
ask, it shall be done for them of my Father
which is in heaven.
Amp—Truly, I tell you, whatever you forbid
and declare to be improper and unlawful
on earth must be what is already forbidden
in heaven, and whatever you permit and
declare proper and lawful on earth must
be already permitted in heaven. Again I tell
you, if two of you on earth agree (harmonize
together, together make a symphony)
about—anything and everything—whatever
they shall ask, it will come to pass and be
done for them by My Father in heaven.
Moffatt—I tell you truly, Whatever you prohibit
on earth will be prohibited in heaven,
and whatever you permit on earth will be
permitted in heaven. I tell you another thing:
if two of you agree on earth about anything
you pray for, it will be done for you by my
Father in heaven.
NEB—’I tell you this: whatever you forbid
on earth shall be forbidden in heaven,
and whatever you allow on earth shall be
allowed in heaven. ‘Again I tell you this:
if two of you agree on earth about any
request you have to make, that request will
be granted by my heavenly Father.’
Matthew 21:21
KJV—Jesus answered and said unto them,
Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and
doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is
done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say
unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and
be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
Amp—And Jesus answered them, Truly, I
say to you, if you have faith—a firm relying
trust—and do not doubt, you will not only
do what has been done to the fig tree, but
even if you say to this mountain, Be taken
up and cast into the sea, it will be done.
Moffatt—Jesus answered, “I tell you truly, if
you have faith, if you have no doubt, you
will not only do what has been done to
the fig tree, but even if you say to this hill,
‘Take and throw yourself into the sea,’ it will
be done.”
NEB—Jesus answered them, ‘I tell you this:
if only you have faith and have no doubts,
you will do what has been done to the figtree;
and more than that, you need only say
to this mountain, “Be lifted from your place
and hurled into the sea”, and what you say
will be done.’

Gloria Copeland — Have Faith In God

Mark 11:22-24
Once you have planted God’s healing Word in
your heart, you can pray with confidence, knowing you
will receive your healing. Yet, to get results, you must
believe you receive when you pray. That is when God’s
healing power is released in your body.
KJV—And Jesus answering saith unto
them, Have faith in God. For verily I say
unto you, That whosoever shall say unto
this mountain, Be thou removed, and be
thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt
in his heart, but shall believe that those
things which he saith shall come to pass; he
shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore
I say unto you, What things soever ye desire,
when ye pray, believe that ye receive
them, and ye shall have them.
Amp—And Jesus replying said to them,
Have faith in God (constantly). Truly, I tell
you, whoever says to this mountain, Be lifted
up and thrown into the sea! and does not
doubt at all in his heart, but believes that
what he says will take place, it will be done
for him. For this reason I am telling you,
whatever you ask for in prayer, believe—
trust and be confident—that it is granted to
you, and you will [get it].
Moffatt—Jesus answered them, “Have faith
in God! I tell you truly, whoever says to this
hill, ‘Take and throw yourself into the sea,’
and has not a doubt in his mind but believes
that what he says will happen, he will have
it done. So I tell you, whatever you pray for
and ask, believe you have got it, and you
shall have it.”
NEB—Jesus answered them, ‘Have faith in
God. I tell you this: if anyone says to this
mountain, “Be lifted from your place and
hurled into the sea”, and has no inward
doubts, but believes that what he says is
happening, it will be done for him. I tell you,
then, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe
that you have received it and it will be yours.’
Mark 6:5-6
KJV—And he could there do no mighty
work, save that he laid his hands upon a
few sick folk, and healed them. And he marvelled
because of their unbelief.
Amp—And He was not able to do even one
work of power there, except that He laid His
hands on a few sickly people [and] cured
them. And He marveled because of their
unbelief—their lack of faith in Him.
Moffatt—There he could not do any miracle,
beyond laying his hands on a few sick
people and curing them. He was astonished
at their lack of faith.
NEB—He could work no miracle there,
except that he put his hands on a few sick
people and healed them; and he was taken
aback by their want of faith.

Matthew 15:6
KJV—Thus have ye made the commandment
of God of none effect by your tradition.
Amp—So for the sake of your tradition (the
rules handed down by your forefathers),
you have set aside the Word of God—depriving
it of force and authority and making
it of no effect.
Moffatt—So you have repealed the law of
God to suit your own tradition.
NEB—You have made God’s law null and
void out of respect for your tradition.
Romans 10:17
KJV—So then faith cometh by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God.
Amp—So faith comes by hearing [what
is told], and what is heard comes by the
preaching [of the message that came from
the lips] of Christ, the Messiah [Himself].
Moffatt—(You see, faith must come from
what is heard, and what is heard comes
from word of Christ.)
NEB—We conclude that faith is awakened
by the message, and the message that awakens
it comes through the word of Christ.
Mark 4:24
KJV—And he said unto them, Take heed
what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it
shall be measured to you: and unto you that
hear shall more be given.
Amp—And He said to them, Be careful
what you are hearing. The measure [of
thought and study] you give [to the truth
you hear] will be the measure [of virtue
and knowledge] that comes back to you,
and more [besides] will be given to you
who hear.
Moffatt—Also he said to them, “Take care
what you hear; the measure you deal out to
others will be dealt out to yourselves, and
you will receive extra.”
NEB—He also said, ‘Take note of what you
hear; the measure you give is the measure you
will receive, with something more besides.’
Psalm 107:20
KJV—(The Lord) sent his word, and healed
them, and delivered them from their destructions.
Amp—He sends forth His word and heals them
and rescues them from the pit and destruction.
Moffatt—He sent his word to heal them and
preserve their life.
NEB—He sent his word to heal them and
bring them alive out of the pit of death.
