How I Discovered the Principles
of Developing Great Faith

by Earl Darling

In 1985, my first wife, Margaret, had breast cancer. Because we had seen many outstanding results by following the faith teachings of several well known ministers, my wife decided not to have her breast removed as the doctors recommended, but to use her faith instead. She claimed her healing, made her confessions and proclaimed that by His stripes she was healed. After a long and tortuous year in which I watched her suffer agonizing pain, while still confessing and believing for her healing, she died.

Margaret was my hero. She loved and trusted God and kept her faith to the very end. However, her death devastated me. I could no longer believe in the faith teachings I had once embraced. In fact, I did not even want to hear the word "faith".  I blamed God for letting us down. I rebelled against Him and turned away. My life quickly fell apart.

I can only describe this period of my rebellion as a
living hell. I became tormented by demons who took
over my will and enslaved me. Several times I faced
death, but God miraculously spared my life.

I knew I had to change but nothing seemed to work. The enemies of my soul told me things were hopeless because I had committed the unpardonable sin.

But thanks be to my Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ for paying the price not only for my salvation, but also for my rebellion when He died on the cross. He delivered me, restored me, and slowly began to teach me what it really means to have faith.

DEVELOPING SPIRITUAL FAITH

 Like Samson, my hair began to grow and my strength returned.

Over the years I have read over 30 books on faith and listened to the arguments of both those who teach faith and those who oppose it. I have been able to pick out nuggets of truth from both sides and to discard the rest. God also gave me insights and revelations. I discovered that the wrong use of faith can kill and has killed many, but lack of faith is just as deadly a killer. In fact, I believe that more people suffer needlessly from lack of a properly developed faith than from misapplied faith. These discoveries prompted me to create a comprehensive seminar and workshop on "Developing Great Faith".

   Some of the things God taught me about faith which I cover in this seminar are:
  • Twenty-one benefits of faith
  • The differences between faith produced by the mind and by the Spirit
  • What faith really is and what it is not
  • How faith really works
  • The different types of faith and how to receive each type
  • How to determine and increase the level of one's faith
  • Five essential ingredients for developing great faith
  • The foundations on which to build faith
  • Specific acts that we can do to release the power of our faith

This is what the Developing Spiritual Faith Seminar and workshop is all about. My Pastor, Rick Smail, who has taken the seminar twice, calls it "the most balanced teaching on faith I've ever seen."

The misapplication of faith killed my dreams, my hopes, my expectations, and my wife - but the spirit of doubt that took over my life almost killed me too.

I have discovered that both
extremes are equally dangerous.

The proper development and application of spiritual faith has now given me the power to stand in the face of a storm and say, "Peace be still."

God has brought peace to my life. He has totally delivered me, restored my health, and given me a wonderful wife and partner who travels with me in ministry. We have a real faith that is unshakeable and we want to impart this faith into the hearts of God's people.

DEVELOPING SPIRITUAL FAITH

I know now from personal experience that there is nothing the enemy can send into my life that can defeat me. My understanding and application of faith has made me more than a conqueror. God is using me mightily to strenghthen the faith of pastors and their congregations. One pastor told me, "My church is no longer the same; my people are on fire!"

  In this seminar you will learn how to activate your faith. It will teach you the characteristics and foundations of spiritual faith, the types and levels of faith,
and the benefits of speaking your faith. And most importantly, it will show you
how to apply the principles of spiritual faith to your everyday life.

Everyone has Natural Faith ("When I see it, I will believe it") This faith is limited and keeps one from receiving the abundant life Christ offers. Spiritual Faith ("When I believe it, I will see it") is unlimited. Very few Christians practice Spiritual Faith.

This seminar and workshop will give you the knowledge, skills and practice in the principles of Spiritual Faith. You will learn the five secrets of developing great faith, how to increase the level of your faith, and how to use your faith to possess your inheritance in Christ Jesus. I can say with one hundred percent confidence, "Anyone who takes this seminar and begins applying its principles will never live a defeated life ever again!"

 " . . . And this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith" (1John 5:4).

My greatest desire is to help God's children develop this overcoming faith. Register TODAY!!
