Faith is a potent force. Its not a minor power; it's a major power in the life of a Christian. Everything we do in Christianity is done on the basis of faith in God. You come into the kingdom by faith . You obtain the blessings by faith. You overcome the evil one by faith. You never get to the point where you have yoo much faith. You can always use more. The bible says " the just " can live by faith" ( Heb. 10:38 ).
Peter don't step out on the water you'll sink
Faith said , Do it
Logic said, Lazarus is decaying in that cave
Faith said, Call him out.
And he came out.
Faith is expectancy. It is realised by our words and actions. The prayer of faith is releases with expectancy that God will do what His Word promises us. Religion is the enemy of faith. So it follows that religious prayer achieve the opposite of faith prayers: Nothing.

What is religion? The Bible defines it as "having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof" ( 2 Tim 3:5 )
The first type of religious prayer is " the attitude prayer". With the attitude of prayer, you don't really pray, you just look like you do. Its a form of godliness with no true power behind it.
The second type of religious prayer is when you say all the right things but have no true faith in that God heard you and will answer you. People pray all the time but there's no power behind it. Faith is what makes a prayer looks powerful . Religion chokes faith if you let it . Religion hates faith. It says, Live by logic; live by reason; live by what you can accomplish in your own ability. Trust in the seen, not the unseen.
Faith should never diminish. It should always be abounding. We never let the strength of our faith go down just to make religion settle in more comfortably. So many people don't know the difference between religion and spirituality. Religion has no expectancy. But the person who lives by faith radiates expectancy.
