Hebrews 11:1 NLT
[1] Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see.
When a person Operates in true faith the results are supernatural. It brings so much persuasion to our hearts and truly puts us on a course that is nothing less than astonishing.
Faith brings confident expectation to our hearts and literally proofs the unseen world to be more true and real than the seen. Faith celebrates as certain what hope visualises as future.
Faith is what makes our hope truly tangible and real. Faith is what makes us understand that everything visible today in our lives comes from the invisible realm.
Faith ushers in the supernatural call, purpose and assignment for our lives. It is only faith that manufactures and produces our testimony.
Faith alone explains what is not apparent to the natural eye.
Enjoying God’s favour upon our lives can only be done by faith. Continuing to flow in God’s favour means to keep our faith strong and alive by feeding on the Word of God.
Exposing ourselves to the right people, voices and environment. Environments creates…..it produces the good or the bad.
It was my persuasion in what I believed the Lord leading me to do launching out in faith by firstly giving my life to Jesus, to marry with no money, having children with no money, starting businesses with no money, planting churches with no money, starting projects with minimum resources, starting the awakening true image and likeness broadcast without having much faith in myself to minister through a camera, starting Non-profit organisations like Oak life foundation in Zambia reaching the poor and providing education…..
The few mentioned above (there are many more) has all been realised by faith. When starting most of these I had no to very limited resources.
If you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and saviour you can move mountains and expand His kingdom with His glory through faith.
Faith in God is most powerful and it’s faith in God and His word that releases His favour in and upon our lives.
Faith changes everything.Our life’s will never be greater than our faith.
Hebrews 11:5 NLT
[5] It was by faith that Enoch was taken up to heaven without dying-"he disappeared, because God took him." For before he was taken up, he was known as a person who pleased God.
Classic example of God’s favour. Enoch was born in the environment of the fallen state of mankind. Disobedience opened the door to sin with Adam’s fall…….but here comes Enoch and expresses a reaching out to his creator which changes his trajectory in His life. Drawing near to God brings RADICAL change!!!!
Enoch enjoyed God’s favour by faith, in spite of Adam’s fall; Enoch proved that faith defeats death - faith does not die!
Clearly there is no substitute reward for faith. Faith’s return exceeds any other sense of achievement. Faith knows that God is! Draw near to God and see God as your greatest Gift in life and see your world change in unprecedented ways……
We have all been called by God. Called for a specific purpose. Called to accomplish assignments. Called for special tasks……just like Noah, Abraham, Izak, Jacob, Joshua…….Paul, James, John, Peter……
Romans 8:28-30 NLT
[28] And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
29] For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.
[30] And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.
The word, kaleo , means to call, to identify by name, to surname.
By faith Abraham acknowledged the call of God which gave him his identity and destiny, as evidence of his inheritance as he journeyed into the unknown.
Nothing but Abrahams faith seemed permanent while Abraham camped in tents like a stranger in the land of promise. His sons Isaac and Jacob joined him as sojourners; equally persuaded that they were heirs of the same promise.
Abraham’s Faith brought in a offspring beyond calculation.
Hebrews 11:13-15 NLT
[13] All these people died still believing
what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. They agreed that they were foreigners and nomads here on earth.
14] Obviously people who say such things are looking forward to a country they can call their own.
15] If they had longed for the country they came from, they could have gone back.
They did not regret the country they had left behind. Their faith took them beyond the point of no return.
Don’t regret the situation you left behind that God told you to walk away from. Regret will sabotage your faith and make you to abort your journey – push on
Acknowledging the call of God on our lives will give us our supernatural identity and reveal our destiny. Embracing our call in faith will empower us to journey into the unknown with full confidence. We will witness our faith turning our hope’s tangible walking with God to the point of no return.
Do not allow the contradictions in your past or present to become your reference once again.
James says that the person who goes back into an old mindset immediately forgets what manner of person they are. James 1:24, 25.
The old things have passed away [in his death]. Behold, everything has become new! In his resurrection we were born anew. 2 Cor 5:14-17, 1 Pet 1:3.)
We need to allow our faith to continually see a greater reality in the spiritual realm than that what we experience in the natural present situation.
Our faith may require us to do ridiculous things….just because faith makes you pierce into the future always tugging and pulling it into our present.
Faith became a more tangible evidence of the promise than even Isaac could ever be to Abraham. Isaac neither fulfilled nor replaced the promise.
Inspired by what faith saw, Abraham was ready to do the ridiculous; to sacrifice his only son, convinced that not even Isaac’s death could nullify the promise that God had made to him. (If Isaac was not the substance of Abraham’s faith then who was? Abraham saw beyond Isaac. Jesus said, “Abraham saw my day!” [Jn 8:56-58] “Before Abraham was, I am.”)
What is your faith seeing today? What are you seeing in your heart? Come on – believe! Move past the point of no return.
Love you much
