Faith Life


And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.
- Genesis 48:21

Living a life of faith, would mean that one has made a quality decision to live trusting God, till transition. You say with absolute conviction that certain mountains would move, believing it would, no matter what. Mark 11:23.

The only way I believe faith will not work for an individual, is when he decide to try faith out. Most time it is faith that ends up trying the individual, and obviously he/she will fail.
In Hebrews 11:29
"By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying(means attempting, trying) to do were drowned."
Here we see that Moses and the Israelite stepped out in faith to cross the Red sea on a dry land, by obedience. Whereas the Egyptians tried to do same, drowned.

God is not on trial, we must make a quality decision to believe God, no matter what.
The Bible says in Hebrews 11:6
"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."
It must be decisive, not a condition.
Also, in Hebrews 11:22
"By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones."
It was a concluded case with him, that the Israelite would depart from Egypt and said, when you are leaving take my bones along with you, it's settled as far as he is concerned.

Both Israel and Joseph made a statement of faith and it came to pass. Because, they believe it would come to pass.
These men have no assurance (Bible, 'the more sure word of prophecy' 2 Peter 1:19) like we do today. Once they said it, they believe it, it came to pass, because they believed God.

Faith is believing, even before we see it. As long as it is in the will of God; which is the Bible.
Isaiah 34:16,
"Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them."

Have a favored fill week, and stay blessed

Strong 2020

Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: - 1 Corinthians 15:36 No seed that is afraid of being planted, will ever think itself qualified to ever produce more fruits, it will die alone. Every seed that must reproduce, must of a necessity go through the process of plantation, if the future is in view. It is hard, yes. But that is the only way to duplicate oneself. John 12:24 says,  "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit."  In this year 2020, if you seriously care, you need to die to self, and alive to God, in other to impact your world. Living a life of mediocre, will not benefit you, and certainly no one else around. Strong? Yes! Why not, if it will get your attention. So, no matter how you have ignored God's instructions until now, make a quality decision to realign, this new year, and start early. Happy New Year, once again...

EXIGENCY

  You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. Amos 3:2.  Ever wondered how come so and so did such and got away with it, but when you attempted it, you got cut and punished for it? There could be chances you are separated to God as a chosen vessel [not certainly, but likely]. "if yes" , as a result, you can't do what you like, only what is permitted. The society have drifted to the place where people don't talk about purpose anymore except their individualistic goals. Well, if you came from God, He already has a plan for you, it is suppose to be your primary assignment in life to discover it. Not to ignore it, in pursuit of your own self centered aspirations, it may not go down well. Some of the reasons you were probably rejected in certain areas in life is not because you aren't qualified, but because you're out of place. When God chose Abram, he didn't succeed in anything else even at 75yrs...
