Still Have Faith

As we continue in the holiday season and start a new year we also need to still have faith in God concerning the things we are believing for. We may have old prayers that we have forgotten. We may have new prayers that are urgent to us. And we may have daily prayers that we confess and believe for. We should hold fast to our profession/confessions and prayers to God, seeing that He is faithful and true! 

As Hebrew 11:1 says in the KJV, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

We may not see our prayers answered immediately, but God always steps in on time. 

Then in Hebrew 11:6 it says, 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. 

We have to have faith to please God. We are given a measure of faith, and we are to build on this faith by reading the word of God. We have to have faith even to believe that God is who He is and that Jesus is His son.

Also in Hebrew 11:11 it says, Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised. 

Even though Sara laughed at the angel that told her she would birth a child, she was still seen as faithful. We may get weary, but in due time God will be judged faithful by us!

In Matthew 17:20 it says, ...if ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Faith is just that, complete trust or confidence in someone or something! We don't doubt that our chair will hold us when we sit to eat dinner, so why doubt a living God!

In Matthew 9:29 it says, Then he touched He their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

Our faith can heal, supply, and open doors if we just believe. We have to trust that God is able and have confidence in Him to manifest!

For Luke 1:37 says, For with God nothing shall be impossible! Then verse 45 says, Blessed is she that believed.

We will be blessed if we believe in the King of Kings to manifest what He has promised us in His word.

For in Matthew 19:26 Jesus says, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

You may feel doubtful, but wait the more, for Lamentations 3:24 says "Therefore I have hope in Him and wait expectantly for Him." 

We are to wait in expectancy for the Father to show Himself strong in our lives!

Then lastly I remind you of what Joel 2:25 says, And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.

God will bless us with full restoration just have faith in the faithful one!

Obedience Yields Results

We read in Hebrews 11:6 that, But without faith it is impossible to please Him. We must have faith to please God, and to even believe that He is God! The word tells us in Matthew 17:20 ...If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to yonder places; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. If we are to believe that the word is true we should obey it! In John 21:6 the word says, And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes. They had been fishing all night and yielded no fish in return, but after being obedient unto the word of Jesus they produced more fish than they were able to handle. The word of God gives us so many examples of individuals being obedient unto God and they yielded results! In Matthew 8:13 the words says, And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believe...

The Peace That Comes With Knowing God!

There is a certain peace and calm that comes with knowing God! God is our father whom we can confidently expect the fruits of the spirit. In Galatians 5: 22-23 love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance are all fruits that are manifested in the spirit of God in our lives! In John 14:27 the word says, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. God is with us and He is a present help in the time of storm.  In Isaiah 26:3 the word says, Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on the: because he trusted in thee.  Our trust should not be in this world, but in God who made heaven and Earth. In Philippians 4: 6-7 & 9 the word says, 6 Be careful for nothing: but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding...

The Good Shepherd!

There are so many example of how the Lord is our shepherd and how we should follow him! As sheep we can be lost, but He will leave the others to find us. As sheep we can need calm waters and green grass, and the good shepherd will provide. As sheep we always need guidance and direction in this life on Earth, and again the good shepherd will provide a roadmap for this journey! In one of the most common verses referring to sheep, The 23 Psalm, the word says, The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me besides the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of shadow of death, I will not fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of...
