Without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God
I am so glad that we have another opportunity to draw wisdom from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Today I will like to talk with you on a very vital topic, and that is on Faith.
I believe it is the desire of every serious child of God to please God with his or her life. The Bible already tell us one way we can do that, and that is by walking in faith. Hebrew 11:6 declares that without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God.
Please note that this scriptures is not saying it will be difficult to please God without faith, but rather it says it will be an impossible task to please God without faith.Faith, – biblical faith is cooperation with God in all sense. God will not do everything for you. He will not do for you, what you are unwilling to do yourself.
Don’t just fold your arm in passivity expecting God to put bread in your mouth. The proof that you have faith in God is to carry out the instruction you already know.
That is the essence of praying and reading the Bible, – to discern His will and understand His mind concerning a given situation and then act on what you know God is calling you to do.
As soon as God reveal to you His will concerning any situation or areas of your life, He is expecting from you the corresponding action. It is your ability to act on the Word of God that proves to God the level of your faith or trust in Him.The Word said faith without work is dead.
“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also “ (Jas 2:26).
Throughout the whole Bible we can see that faith is always connected with definite action of the believer. For example, Peter told Jesus “ at thy word I will let down the net”” And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net” (Luke 5:5).
This became the point of breakthrough in the life and business of Peter. Do you aspire divine breakthrough in your life? Faith will play a vital role in that. However, Faith is action and not passive expectation of miracle from God. Proof to God through your action and attitude today that you trust Him and you have Faith in His Word.Remember, Faith is cooperation between God and man. God does His own part and man must do his own part as well. May the Lord bless you abundantly this wonderful day of the week! See you next time! Pastor Rufus AjiboyeSupport us so we can do more
