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

Choose To Forgive

"And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors... For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:" Matt. 6:12;14. The Scripture admonish us to forgive not just debts, offenses, etc. In Isa. 43:25 God had to forgave us for His own sake, meaning each time we have unforgiveness in our heart, it limit the flow of the anointing which is the power of God at work in us. Many think they are perfect, but non is perfect and sinless before God, except by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, which is by grace. 1 John 1:8 "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." it does not matter the personality, not even Peter, James and John could claim righteousness without Jesus Christ and the blood. So we don't have examples to pattern after except Jesus Christ, He is the RIGHTEOUS (1John 2:1). We must be mindful, man will always want to make himself the pattern for others to follow after, like ...

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....
