The power of God is in you when you have faith in God.The author my dear sister Mrs Florence Adeshola Abraham nee Laniyan born in congo a Congolese born Nigerian wrote this piece.Enjoy the reading.
Living by faith is something you learn to do by practising it daily. Before you became a Christian, you trusted in your own ability and intellect. But those things only took you so far and no further, right? Now you're trusting God for the wisdom, guidance, resources and ability to fulfil his will for your life.
The Bible tells us, 'By faith Noah...prepared an ark for the saving of his household' (Hebrews 11:7 NKJV). Think about it: when Noah built the ark, there was no sign of rain. Living by faith doesn't always make sense. It doesn't mean your problems will vanish into thin air. Sometimes faith changes your circumstances; other times it changes your perspective. How? By giving you the tenacity to hang in there despite the negativity. Faith gives you the fortitude to endure, confident that God will work things out on your behalf. Paul tells us, 'Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see' (Hebrews 11:1 NIV).
Living by faith means (1) obeying God and believing he will never let you down, (2) following in the footsteps of ordinary people who did extraordinary things for God, and (3) using your faith because you know it's the only currency Heaven recognises.
I pray for you: The Lord increase your faith so that you'll continually please him. And your faith in God will not put you to shame in Jesus name. Amen
Good Morning and a wonderful weekend.
