Enjoying Life at it's Fullest.

We have all been given a measure of faith at new birth, but we’ve got to use our faith to give God Glory!








Please read Romans 12;3;Luke 17 :5-6; Proverbs 4:20-23; Matthew 5:16;

Dear Friend,
This week we learnt that every believer has been given the measure of faith. It is not surprising at all that this is the case, because God knows that we need faith in order to please Him , as well as to enjoy our life at its fullest here on earth. We all know that Jesus has paid the price for us to enjoy abundant life however, we have to follow God’s acceptable pathway-faith- to secure all those blessings tangibly. If this is the case, then, we tend to miss out on what God has for us when we choose not to use our faith. According to Luke 17:5-6 it is only when we use our faith that our faith will grow .When you exercise your faith in the not- so -important things of life, such as forgiving a person who spoke ill of you ,then your faith will grow to the point where you are able to receive healing for a terminal ailment.. A flabby shaped guy does not need more muscles outside of himself but only needs to regularly exercise the muscles he already has to grow his muscles.

In proverbs 4:20-24 we understand the process by which faith is developed. First, we have to pay attention to the word of God by listening attentively with our ears and reading intently with our eyes. As we consistently do this, t he word begins to take root in our heart. A conviction is established, a belief is born and faith becomes evident because what is established in our heart naturally affects our confession and our actions. At this stage it is very crucial that we guard our hearts against any doubt or fear entering our heart to contaminate the faith that has been developed. Remember Jesus clearly stated in Mark 11:23 that if you say to the mountain to go into the sea … and do not doubt in your heart you will have whatever you say.

Why do you think God wants you to live by faith? I believe the reason is to give God the glory according to Matthew 5:16. You see the higher place of affluence and influence that God has ordained for you on this earth can not be achieved easily outside of Faith. The place God wants you to be is so great you need Him to attain it. Hmm, how can I attain the position of lending to nations? It will take faith. How can I attain the position of doing greater works than what Jesus did on earth? By faith. The list goes on. However, if I am able to become diligent in seeing what God has said ,saying what God has said and doing what God has said then every one will begin to see God’s blessing on my life and give Him Glory for His faithfulness to His word!

Prayer : Father today, I make a quality decision to pay attention to your word by taking time to allow it to take root in my heart.. I receive grace to study ,listen and read your word daily in Jesus name! Amen.
