Walk AND WORK By Faith

 

 

 

Walking by faith is not telling people about your needs. Talk with God about it, believe for your miracle, and WORK towards your goals.
When you get your need met, that only God knew about, that’s the time to shout it from the mountain top. That’s truly walking by faith.
Give HIM the glory!

Finding Lost Items – By The Leading of the Holy Spirit

Prayed about finding my mobile WiFi device this am. Had been checking since last night.

Decided not to lose sleep about it. The Holy Spirit spoke to me on the train. He just said to my spirit, “your desk”. I really sensed peace. Look what I found at the office on my desk. God is so good! Besides salvation, there is nothing more valuable than the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Want the whole world to know you?

Matthew 26:13 (NLT)

I tell you the truth, wherever the Good News is preached throughout the world, this woman’s deed will be remembered and discussed.”

So many want to be rich and famous. Comparing rich or poor, of course being rich is better. Only a fool would say they want to be poor.

Clearly, God wants you to be financially rich but that starts with being spiritually rich. How can I be spiritually rich? By building your faith. Building your faith is founded on saying and doing. This woman is Bethany has never been forgotten because she acted in faith. People around her complained about what she did, but she didn’t hesitate. Faith is what pleases God. What are you doing today to act on your faith?

Be responsible for yourself

Matthew 25:8 (NLT)

Then the five foolish ones asked the others, ‘Please give us some of your oil because our lamps are going out.’

Jesus tells us the story or 10 young ladies. Five were ready and waiting for His return, five were not.

We must be ready at all times for His return. Go after God with all you got and don’t be left outside.

You’ve got to know the Bible to know God

The Ocean off the Japan Coast

Matthew 22:29 (NLT)

Jesus replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the Scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.

Ready for miracles in your life? Religious people tell us miracles are a thing of the past. Really?

The Lord Jesus makes it really clear. People who know God and His Word will see the power of God as they step out in faith.

The faith cycle is easy.

  1. Read the Word and listen to great teaching
  2. Act in faith and believe for the miracle
  3. Rejoice for the miracle and tell people about it
  4. Do it all over again. Back to step one.

Give To God What Is Due

Matthew 22:19-21 (NLT)

Here, show me the coin used for the tax.” When they handed him a Roman coin, he asked, “Whose picture and title are stamped on it?”

“Caesar’s,” they replied.

“Well, then,” he said, “give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and give to God what belongs to God.”

If you come to our church you’ll find that we have discovered that God blesses us through our tithes and offerings. We read the passage and think, ‘yep, we’ve got to give our T&O (tithes and offerings) to God’. That’s absolutely correct. But at the same time God wants something more valuable. God wants you to give yourself to Him. How do you do that?

Giving yourself wholly to God is simple. You must just make your relationship with God your number one priority. Yeah, pay your taxes and do what you have to do as a world citizen. More importantly, talk to God all the time. Thank Him all the time for the things He is doing, and the things he’s going to do. Thank Him for what you have and thank Him for what’s coming. Talk with Hm all the time. Once you begin talking with Him He will talk with you. Now, you better watch out as God moves more in your life! Give to God what is His. That’s you!

Called and chosen

Matthew 22:14 (NLT)

“For many are called, but few are chosen.”

This is a misquoted Bible passage. There is a group of people who believe everything is predetermined by God. Whether you accept Jesus as your personal Lord and savior, walk in divine prosperity, live healthy and strong, succeed or fail… they say it’s all already known/decided by God. This is wrong. Your life is a choice. If you are failing today it’s because of the decision you made yesterday. Your life is all about making right choices.

God is calling everyone, but God only chooses those who chose Him first. You are called but have you chosen? The decision is yours.

Faith Believes

Matthew 8:13 (NLT)

Then Jesus said to the Roman officer, “Go back home. Because you believed, it has happened.” And the young servant was healed that same hour.

We have to get talking in line with our believing. If you believe you’re going to talk about what Gods doing. If you don’t believe, you’re going to talk about what’s not happening. I’ll go with believing God and declaring His goodness every day. How about you?
