Message
Faith is part of the nature of God. God lives by faith, and every child
of God is expected to live as God lives. Are you a child of God? You are
expected to live by faith. You are expected to live to please God and
Him alone. Hebrews 11:6 says:
“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
Faith can be defined as trust, strong belief and unquestioning confidence. Faith means belief in God. It is the belief that God can do what he says He can do. Faith is belief in God’s word. You need to have faith in God! Generally, there are two kinds of faith: These are:
physical or natural (human) faith, and spiritual or supernatural faith.
All human beings have some measure of faith. You need faith for
salvation, sanctification, justification, wholeness or health of the
spirit, soul and body. You need faith to live the Christian life, to
walk the Christian walk, to remove the obstacles blocking your way to
heaven, to live holy, to live above the world and to enter into the rest
of God. However, it should be noted that faith standing alone is not
sufficient. Certain things need to be added to it (2 Peter 1:5-10).
It is risky for a ministry to be built on faith alone because it could
die as a result. This is because, as the faith on which such a ministry
is founded begins to die, the ministry itself will also begin to die.“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
Faith can be defined as trust, strong belief and unquestioning confidence. Faith means belief in God. It is the belief that God can do what he says He can do. Faith is belief in God’s word. You need to have faith in God! Generally, there are two kinds of faith: These are:
Do you want to live by faith? First, have the faith of the Son of God (Galatians 2:20). Then add virtue or good behaviour to your faith. Ensure that you live holy and righteously. To virtue, add knowledge. Don’t allow ignorance to destroy you. To knowledge, add temperance and to temperance, add patience. To patience, add godliness. To godliness, add brotherly kindness and to brotherly kindness, add love. Secondly, let everything added to your faith abound in you. Be diligent in making them flourish in you. It is dangerous to live by faith alone. If you fail to add virtue and other qualities to your faith, you might end up becoming barren, unfruitful, blind and short-sighted. For you to live by faith therefore, you should first and foremost be born-again, and diligently develop your faith to reach the measure of that of the Son of God. Pray constantly in the Holy Ghost and live in perpetual obedience to the will of God. Hate sin and shun bad company, ungodly habits, pride and false doctrine..
Action Point:
No life is more fulfilling than living by faith. Begin to live by the faith of the Son of God today.
