Growing in faith

Growing in faith

That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God’ (I Corinthians 2:5, KJV).

Our wisdom should rest on God’s word. If you depend on your own wisdom, or on men’s wisdom, you have missed it in life. We need God’s wisdom to make the right decisions and take the right steps. Of course, one cannot expect to be prosperous or successful when he makes wrong decisions.

Wisdom comes from God’s word. When we allow God’s word to dwell richly in us, we become wise indeed. So what should our attitude be towards God’s word? We must read the Bible with an open heart for it can penetrate the deepest depths of our soul (Hebrews 4:12). We must then meditate on what we have read (Joshua 1:8).

But we shouldn’t stop there. We should believe the Word. Hearing it opens the gate and believing takes us in to the very presence of the King. One more thing: we should take the final step of receiving. Believing is not enough; we need to receive God’s promises by faith.

When some folks who desired to be healed met with Jesus, He asked them if they had faith that He could do what they wanted. Their faith was the basis for their healing. Dear friend, be assured that your answer is on the way.

Keep your faith alive by meditating intensively on God’s words till your breakthrough arrives. Don’t ever pay attention to the devil’s words for his intention is to destroy your faith. I pray, anything that keeps you away from the word of God is hereby subdued. In Jesus name!

Today’s corporate prayer: O Lord, arise in your mercy and destroy every destroyer of my faith. In Jesus mighty name!
