Faith
Faith, what does that mean?
Faith, is having confidence, that belief and hope, that situations and circumstances will get better, despite not seeing that change or that vision right now.
I will be sharing a few scriptures, which I find comforting, when moments tries to cloud me. These scriptures remind me of the goodness of God. I hope you find strength, peace and faith, as you come across them.
Favor; Through God’s favor, we are healed and we saved from the things which have broken us and caused us to stumble. God’s favor is a beautiful stepping stone into greater faith.
Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong; You hid Your face, and I was troubled.
Abundance; When we have faith, nothing and no-one can take away the multiple blessings, that God pours down on us. God will supply everything we need, in his perfect timing. We sometimes get disheartened by the things we do not have, instead of being grateful for the things which we can use, to keep us moving forward. With faith, the abundance that God places over our lives, will bless us, more than we could ever ask for.
You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance.
Incomparable; Where there is faith, there is an element of incomparability. For God, knows our hearts and minds, and works according to the faith, he knows is stored within each and every one of us. Therefore, we can never compare the anointing, each of us receives, when we our relationships with him are on separate levels. We can never compare the journey one another has to take, because God’s plans and timing are different for us all.
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Trust; Sometimes we go through difficult situations, unable to trust easily. But if there's someone we can always depend on, someone who will always be there, someone who's promises never fails, then that person is God. Once we learn to trust him; trust him without doubt presence, he will show up for us and make the impossible, possible.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding.
Hope; Such a small word, yet powerful. Having hope, our mindsets are filled with a positive outlook on the future. Being hopeful; is being patient in the present, whilst waiting for the things we need to change for the better.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Sometimes we get weary and sometimes, we're fearful and doubtful, which is fine, it's understandable and it's human nature . However, God wants us to know, no matter what happens in life, we shouldn't let that faith slip or slide away. We must hold onto it, with all our might and we must use faith to elevate and guide us, in all areas of our lives. Yes we disheartened, but everything in life, teaches us to rise and with his grace, we will overcome and conquer.
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
