There are three critical things in the life of a believer for success in this life and the next ( we spend most of our energy in this one and often slight preparation for the next)
These three things are Faith, Hope, and Love.
This morning we will only consider Faith.
Romans 10:17 (NKJV) So then faith [comes] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
This verse provides motivation to regularly attend a Bible preaching church. And to regularly spend time in God’s Word.
The message of God’s Word is primarily opposite from the word of this world. To receive the benefits of Faith we must consciously seek to hear and understand God’s Word.
Faith garners the power and favor of God. And without faith it is impossible to please God.
Faith is a game changer!
In every arena of life Faith is a major difference maker.
Matthew 9:27-31 (NKJV) 27 When Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out and saying, “Son of David, have mercy on us!” 28 And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” 29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.” 30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, saying, “See [that] no one knows [it].” 31 But when they had departed, they spread the news about Him in all that country.
We all have needs and Jesus is ready to meet our needs. We only must ask in faith to receive our very own miracle.
More on this important subject later only know that we share these things because of our love for you.
