Jesus said “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth” (Mark 9:23)
You see, Jesus does not and cannot lie. If He said it, then it is so.
He said “All Things Are Possible.” How many things? ALL THINGS.
But to whom?
To Him That Believeth.
So, the question is this, are you one of those who believe God can do anything for you?
Do you believe?
What do you believe?
What do you believe God for?
Note that Jesus did not say all things are possible to him that prayeth, or to him that fasteth, or to him that thinketh, or to him that worrieth, or to him that weepeth. No!
What did He say?
ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO HIM THAT BELIEVETH.
What God needs from you is not really your prayers, fasting, thinking, worries or weeping. No!
What God needs from you to do for you what you want Him do is YOUR FAITH.
So, the question is this, DO YOU BELIEVE?
What Exactly Do You Believe God for?
What Do You Want God to Do for You?
And HOW MUCH FAITH DO YOU HAVE IN HIM TO GET HIM TO DO IT FOR YOU?
Your prayers, fasting, thinking, worries and weeping don’t move God. No!
Only your faith does.
You can pray, fast, think, worry and cry from today till next year, God is not moved by them and they will never bring you what you want or need from Him.
Only what you believe God can do for you will you see Him do for you.
Only your faith in God can move God, nothing more.
The Bible says in Hebrews 11:6 that God always rewards those who seek Him, “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.”
The only way to please God or get something from Him is to HAVE FAITH IN HIM that He Can and that HE WILL DO THAT THING FOR YOU.
So, the next question is this, WHAT IS FAITH?
Faith is the trust you have in someone or something that they can do or can’t do something for you.
Faith is the #confidence you have in someone concerning a particular thing.
That you have faith in God means that you have trust in God. It means you trust God that He can or will do something for you. And that He can’t lie to you to you.
So, if He can’t lie to you, He will surely do to and for you what He said or promised.
To have confidence is to totally rely on God for that thing. You are so sure it is going to happen. You’re just too certain that He will do it.
So, if you truly have that kind of faith, you will do whatever you need to do to get what you have prayed to God about.
You will go after that thing, not just sitting down at home, in your office or somewhere and wishing for it or thinking whether or not it would happen. No!
Faith does not sit down and wish. Faith stands up and act. Faith works. Faith moves. Faith is an action producer.
Jesus said if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain that is confronting you to move…and it shall obey you.
So, faith talks to people. Faith writes the letter. Faith makes that call. Faith submits that proposal.
Faith gives that thing. Faith goes for that interview. Faith asks for that help. Faith don’t just sit down, faith works. Faith works to work out what it desires or wants.
So, what do you believe God for? And, what are you doing to show your faith in God for that thing.
In 2009, I just published my second and third books. By God’s grace, I published two different books in 2019 alone, Receive Solution to Your Situation and Turn Your Mockers to Your Servants.
I wanted a particular church to buy some copies of the books and distribute free of charge to their church teenagers and youths.
So I called the Head of Department in charge of the church’s teenagers and youths and requested a meeting. He gave me an appointment.
Before leaving home, I knelt down and told God that they should buy 300 copies of the books.
When I got to his office, we got talking, but the condition of our discussion seemed unfavourable to my intension.
So, in that kind of situation, you can’t tell them to buy 300 copies of your book. No, not in that condition.
However, when I proposed the purchase of the books to him, that they should buy it and give free of charge to their teenagers and youths, the man asked me, “So how many copies do you want us to buy?”
Well, the normal thing to say based on the situation I met was “Maybe 25 or 50 Copies”.
But I looked passed the situation and strengthened my confidence in the God I had prayed to before I left home.
So, what did I reply?
I simply told him, “300 Copies.”
What was his response?
He suggested and advised me to give them discount on each copy. Immediately I agreed to the discount, he told me to go and deliver the 300 copies and instructed whom to meet for the payments.
I left his office, went home to pack the books, and went straight to their church to deliver the 300 copies of the books. I was paid in cash, immediately.
The proposal, delivery and payments, all happened on the same day, within few hours apart.
Why? Because despite the unfavourable situation that I saw, I still confidently spoke forth my desire.
That was an act of faith.
Faith does not pray without acting. No! Faith prays and then rise up to go to work, and work out what has been prayed for.
Faith talks to people. Faith writes the letter. Faith makes that call. Faith submits that proposal. Faith gives that money. Faith goes for that interview. Faith asks for that help.
Faith doesn’t just sit down, faith works. And even if it does not work out immediately, faith doesn’t lose hope or give up, no! Faith keeps on working until it sees it work out.
So, I ask you once again, What Do You Believe God for in Your Life, Work, Home, Business, Ministry, Family, Marriage, Relationship, Nation and for Your Spouse, Children and People Right Now?
And, what are you doing to have it just as you want it?
Faith Works and Keeps On Working Until It Sees It Work Out.
So, GET TO WORK NOW!
