DO YOU TRULY BELIEVE?

If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
Luke 9: 23
Main Text:

Following Jesus is a lifestyle that builds on decision of faith, which is evident in our day-by-day living. We cannot live off faith in Christ and claim to believe God.

Beloved, it’s evident that if you truly believe in the Lord your God, you will receive your desired miracles. What God wants is absolute trust and faith in His prevailing Word. If you will trust and never doubt, God is able to fulfil His counsel for your life and grant your heart’s desires. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6.

You need absolute faith in God. You must be persistent and diligent in your dealings with the Almighty. Consider the case of the widow in Luke 18:1-7. She didn’t stop her prayers until the intervention came. Faith won’t allow you to quit, faith will rather keep you going and believing that only God can do what no man can do. This is why you need to rest in God and hope for what He has promised you through His prevailing Word.

Jesus is our perfect example. He believed and trusted God for every miracle. He knew that God would not disappoint anyone who put his trust on Him.

I wouldn’t like to see you pray only but also believe that He still grant answers. This is faith in action. Ask God with full assurance of faith. Hold unto His word knowing that He can never lie. You are expected to pray without ceasing because he will answer you at the end of the day. The glory of the Lord is still very much available. He will cancel every shame that hovers around your finance, marriage, and health. Just approach Him through His word and wait patiently to receive,

Prayer:   Increase my faith and help me to believe your Word.
