Don't be someone that let's go of their faith! Jesus said that if we would believe, we would see the glory of God in our lives.
That takes a perseverance in someone and a holding on in their heart to what God has said.
The word says that it is a good thing that your heart be established in faith.
That means standing upon the word while the tests of life are going on around you.
Like Jesus asleep in the boat in the storm, as far as he was concerned, they were all going across the lake in one peace, and no storm was going to alter that word of faith!
Situations can try us, can test us and are meant to perfect us! (remember that if you can, while your facing your storms. It's not always that simple of course)
However one thing I have learned in life and that's this, that God is faithful! He's true to his word and his word works.
Within us he has implanted the good seed of the word, I believe in good soil, therefore a harvest is on the way.
You need to apply your faith, and not just mind faith. When I say mind faith, I'm referring to the difference between what we believe in our head and what we believe in our heart.
Faith is something that arises in our hearts first, not our minds.
A mental belief will not carry the day but heart faith will.
Jesus said that it was with the heart man believes unto salvation, not the mind.
If your finding your faiths not seeming to be working right, then check its heart faith, not just a mental belief.
In God it's not a case of mind over matter that produces the victory for us, but Holy Ghost inspired faith that comes from hearing God speak!
That's the kind of belief that arises in the midst of our darkest moments and calls God faithful and stands firm through it all, declaring the unseen as if it's seen and the victory as already won!
We read also in Hebrews 11:6 how that without faith, it's impossible to please God and this is because Gods not programmed to respond to our unbelief or our mental desires. His power, Jesus said was triggered by our faith.
If you recall the story of the little lady with the issue of blood, it was her faith and the reaching out to touch Jesus, that caused the virtue to leave Jesus, enter into her body and make her whole!
Your faith needs stirred up! Troubles and life have a habit of desensitising
You to God and his Spirit in you, that's why you should actively encourage your faith with rehearsing his word within your self daily.
Talk to yourself about his power and his promises to you and feel his Spirit within you begin to arise!!!
This week read Hebrews chapter eleven, and begin to remind yourself about faith and it's importance to you everyday.
