DEFINITION OF FAITH

DEFINITION OF FAITH
H
ebrews 11:1, defined faith as the substance of thing hoped for, the evidence of thing not seen. Faith is that force that will help you to realize your tomorrow, if you do not doubt today. It is putting all your eggs in God’s basket, then counting your blessing before they are hatched. It is the force of a full life. Is it like radar that sees through the fog, the reality of things at a distance that the human eye cannot see. It is that force that sees through the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible. It is what you believe and not what you know. It releases the miraculous. It is the way to God’s divine influence. It is simply when you bring God into the picture. It is the anchor of soul, the stimulus to action and the incentive to achievement. It gives us the courage to face the present with confidence and the future with expectancy. Faith will make a giant out of a midget, an extra ordinary out of the ordinary. Let your heart be filled with faith this week to begin to do the undoable. Exercise faith over the health of your spouse, your children and your business. Exercise faith over whatever has being termed impossible so that you can begin to share your testimonies. Remember it is only with faith that you can please God.

Don’t Look Back!

Don’t Look Back! Luke 9:62 – And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Have you answered the call to serve God as His son and daughter? Have you totally chosen Jehovah as your God? Have you decided to leave your old ways and cleave unto God? If yes! Beloved I congratulate you. But hope you took the cost of your choice?? [Please refer to yesterday’s sermon] God doesn’t want us to look back when we have answered the call, why? This is because of the following: Firstly, it brings shame to the body of Christ and makes people to despise Christ. Looking back is to be lukewarm and to depart from the first love! [Revelation 2:4, Revelation 3:16] Secondly, looking back makes the believer to suffer backwardness spiritually and physical. The faith of the believer suffers and takes a longer time to be rebuilt. [Hebrews 6:4]. Thirdly, looking back will make the person not to complete whatever he or she has started. This is w...

Faulty Covenant

Faulty Covenant Hebrews 8:7 [7] For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Covenant as a strong bound that is not easily broken can be faulty. The covenant made betwixt God and the Israelites was a faulty covenant in this time of Grace but perfect in it's time. The covenant wasn't to lead sinner's unto Christ's but it was to lead them unto their destructive end quickly. The old covenant was a period of darkness and pains (because it was more by works and not by grace) but thanks to God who invalidated the old covenant and gave us the covenant of Grace where Jesus is the mediator no longer Moses. God spoken of the new covenant long ago in Jeremiah 31:31; it was manifested in Christ. This new covenant brings light to the soul. Every covenant that do not bring light to your life, be destroyed now by fire! Whatever makes you to live by work and not by grace be destroyed! For God's name sake, let everyt...

A Song of Praise and Thanksgiving

Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves, We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; — Psalm 100:3-5 NKJV A Song of Praise and Thanksgiving Enjoy the verse insights on this passage from  The MacArthur Study Bible. Verses 100:1–5 This well–known psalm, emphasizing the universal nature of God's kingship, is a benediction to the series of psalms which are occupied with the Lord's kingdom rule (Psalms 93, 95–100). Most of it is a call to praise and thanksgiving, while verses 3 and 5 fix the reasons for that worship. Verse 100:3 Know.  In the sense of experiencing and being completely assured of the truth. The LORD, He  is  God.  A confession that Israel's covenant God, Jehovah, is the only true God. Made us.  Though God's actual creation of every human bei...
