Title: Faith in God engages the word of God in Jesus Christ to situations you face.
“So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.”
??Mark? ?11:22-24? ?NKJV??.
Faith in God acknowledges human limitations and the supremacy of God and His word. It recognizes that God has exalted His word above all His name.(Psalms 138:2 AMP).
Faith is a substance of hope, that is faith comes to a person who is hoping and desiring and is also evidence of things not yet seen. (Hebrews 11:1). Faith comes by hearing the word of God (Romans 10:17), or putting it differently the word of God has built within itself the capacity to produce the spiritual substance called faith in the person who opens themselves to the word of God. You have a responsibility to prepare your heart to be good ground so that the word of God will penetrate, go deep in you and produce results. (Mark 4:14-20).
Point of reflection: Having the faith of God begins with a realization that God can do what you cannot do. Then desire or hope for something. Seek the word of God and allow it to work inside your life. When the word has produced the substance called faith, it becomes evidence to you that it is done. You will speak and declare it before if has actually happened. Glory be to God forevermore. When you are ready-
Prayer of commitment to the word: My Father in the name if Jesus Christ, I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to become the sacrificial Lamb that takes away my sin. I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life today. I commit myself to seeking your word everyday and to prepare my heart to be good ground for your word. In Jesus Christ's name I pray. Amen.
