Faith Dimensions 1
For a believer to enjoy the journey of
Christianity, they must have faith. Without faith it impossible to please God,
it is hard to overcome situations and it is hard to get healed. Faith is the
substance of things hoped for, which means you substantiate something before you have it. You feel you have it before you physically touch it. If
you are sick, you start feeling as if you are healed and start to think, walk
and talk like a healed person and you then get healed. If you are poor, you
begin to live, think, walk and talk like a wealthy person- you change your
language as the bible says “let the poor say I am rich…”
Faith doesn’t make sense, it makes
miracles! To believe is not enough we must do. It is in the doing that faith is
expressed. To believe is a mind-set and faith is the action. The woman who bled
for twelve years in the bible believed if she caught hem of the garment of
Christ, she would be healed; and by maneuvering her way through all the men to
reach and touch Christ’s garment was faith. Faith seals the believing. Faith is
more than courage- you act in spite of fear.
I know a certain man of faith, when he wanted to meet his spiritual father, he believed he would get to Uganda but did not have an air
ticket but he managed to wake up at 4AM and prepare and left for the airport.
While on his way someone called him to give him money which was much more than
he needed for the air ticket. That was faith.
Faith is a force that makes things
happen. It does not honor anything but
the word of God. When you believe it, act on it. If you believe in the man of
God’s declaration for a car, start inquiring prices for the car. If you believe
the anointing for a house, start looking for prices for a stand or a house! If
you are believing him for a business begin to have a plan or proposal; research
on the markets and get registered. If you believed in the anointing for a
talent or gift start excising it. That is faith.
