 It’s Not Hocus Pocus. Faith Needs A Focus (Hebrews 11:1).  

I have unwavering trust and confidence in it. You possess awareness of that which you seek to manifest presently in your life. You earnestly pray and believe in God to manifest it expediently. I affirm that you possess the faith required for its realization. Hebrews 11:1 states, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." I have the same faith and conviction for my desires. Faith is indispensable in pleasing God. To approach God, one must believe in His existence and that He rewards those who diligently seek Him.

 

The just shall live by faith. Faith is a lifestyle that I embrace wholeheartedly. In Matthew 8:17, Jesus spoke to the centurion, "Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith." The centurion believed that with Jesus' word, his servant would be healed. He had faith for it. What do you believe in God for today? What are your expectations? Your faith requires focus. Often, we lack results from scattering our energy in various directions.

 

Identify your essential desire. "One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after." Focus your faith on that one thing. Channel your thoughts, words, and actions towards that objective. Manifest your desires, and then progress to the next thing.

 

Moreover, faith requires action. Faith without works is dead. Are you willing to take action to realize the good desires in your heart? What patterns or habits are you willing to modify? Your faith requires action to get the miracle, the sign, or the wonder you are entitled to as God's beloved offspring.

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...

The Sacred Sunday Posture:  Kneeling “ A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees; if you are willing, you can make me clean (Mark 1:40).” In addition to bowing your heads and closing your eyes, many people learn to “get on your knees and pray.” Often, it’s at night before going to sleep. Parents instruct their children to kneel on the side of the bed and say their prayers. Perhaps you have fond memories of kneeling and reciting the Lord’s Prayer or the 23 rd Psalm. Or maybe you were taught, like me, “Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake. I pray the Lord, my soul, to take. God bless mommy, daddy...” Kneeling is a physical way to revere God as your Creator and remember that God is your Source. “Know that it is the Lord, who is God. It is he that has made us and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture (Psalm 100:3).” Without reverencing and ...

Where Is the Love? Learning to Recognize God's Presence Through Galatians 5

  Where Is the Love?    One of my favorite duets is by Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack: "Where Is the Love?" It asks, "Where is the love that you said you would give to me?" It's a timeless question and one that’s just as spiritually relevant today.    In Galatians 5 , Paul writes to the churches in Galatia about the contrast between the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit. He helps believers understand how to discern what’s truly of God. And here's the spiritual compass: love is God's signature . "And envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God."   Galatians 5:21 (KSB)    Whatever you do whether it’s cooking a meal or making a major decision ask yourself: "Where is the love?" Is love your motive? Is love present in your tone, your actions, your intentions?  Paul’s letter urges us to determine whether we are operati...
