TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...

GETTING FAITH

GETTING FAITH

Romans 10:13-17
Devotional:- “So faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God” (V. 17)

    It is of great importance that we know that faith is not just confessions. It is not just believing but a fire in your spirit taking from the word of God when you meditate in it.

When faith does not have its source in the word of God, then it is fake and capable of bringing shame. The word of God is the source of genuine faith that cannot fail. The ignorance of this is the reason for the frustration in the body of Christ today. People think they have faith when they do not. The word of God could come to you through someone preaching the word. It could be through reading and meditating on the word of God or reading books written by men of the Holy Spirit. It is the Spirit from the Word that ignites faith.

To receive faith through the word is not just by reading but by meditating and seeking to know the truth. This is meditating in the word till the spirit of the word jumps on you (John 6:63; John 10:34-35). This is reading with an eye for solution. When your heart has taken faith from the word of God, everyone around you will know. It will generate and transmit strength into your spirit. You will be too ready to disgrace the devil in your situation. No one will need to tell you that you have faith, you will know it yourself. Even the devil will be afraid of you.

Friend, it is time to search the scripture to build up faith that will terminate the challenges of your life. You are already a victor; you only need to take faith from the word and your victory will manifest (1 John 5:4).

Prayer: Lord, deliver the word for my victory to me.

“WHEN FAITH COMES, VICTORY WILL NATURALLY FOLLOW”
