FAITH:
FAITH, a principle factor in the life of the Kingdom of God
Without faith no one will please God
The quality of life a believer lives is a function of his or her faith. Hab 2:4, Rom 1:17, Heb.10:38
But faith has unlimited capacity for growth. 2 The 1:3
Faith grows by hearing and understanding the word of God, Acts 8:26-35, Rom 10: 17
At New Birth, we all have a measure of faith (the saving faith) Rom.12:3
The levels of faith include:
No faith – Mark 4:40
Little faith — Mat 8:26
Great faith — Matthew. 15:21-28
Very great (so great) faith- Mat. 8:10-13
Since scriptures emphasizes that it’s according to one’s faith, then wisdom demands that we start building our faith. 1 Tim 4:15, 2 Tim.4:13, Phil 4:13
How to build your faith:
Reading and meditating on the word of God, 1Timothy 4:13,15
Study of the word. 2 Timothy 2:115, Daniel, 9:2
Spirited search in the word. Luke 15:8, Proverbs.20:27
Through prayer for access to revelation Psalms 119:18; Jeremiah 33:
Learning from the word anointed ministers Jeremiah. 3:15-16, Ephesians. 4:8-11
Understanding the power of prayer
Prayer is the life wire of the believer. Luke 18:1; 1Thesalonians.5:21
Every child of God is a house (temple) 1 Corinthians.3.9; 1Corinthians 6.19
But God’s house is ordained the house of prayer in all nations, Matthew 21:11; Mark 11:17; Luke 19:4
We know that every uninhabited house is occupied by rodents, cockroaches, spiders etc, Matthew 12:43-45
This is why a prayer less believer easily becomes a victim of the torment of unclean spirits, Matthew 10:1, Hosea.5.4; Romans 8:15
Jesus shows the pattern of prayer that believers should use, Mat 6:9-13 as follows;
Worship and Praise Matthew 6:9, Psalms 100:4
Praying Kingdom advancement prayers, Matthew 6: 10; 1 Timothy.2.4; 2pet 3.9
Praying for personal needs – Matthew 6:11; Jam 4.2; Matthew 7:7-8, 11
Praying for forgiveness, Matthew 6.12, Psalms 66.18-19, 1 John 1:8-9
Praying for Deliverance from evil, Matthew 6:13, Matthew 266:41
Thanking God in advance for answered prayers Matthew. 6.13; Philippians 4:6
Understanding The Benefits Of Soul Wining:
This is the act of bringing other people to Christ (evangelize to other people for them to receive Christ).
This is a mandated ordained by GOD to every believer. Every child of God is ordained as a soul winner. John 15:16
Every child of God has a ministry of reconciling the world (people and all creation) back to God. 2 corinthians. 5:17-20.
If you are sure of your salvation, then go share your testimony with others like the Samaritan woman- John 2;29,39
Our testimony is our strongest message in reaching out to those who are yet to know Christ- John 10’37, Isaiah 8;20
We are redeemed to go out and compel people to come to church to meet with Christ. Luke 14:17-23
Inviting people to church does not require maturity, experience, it only requires passion to see people translated from darkness to light. Mark 8:38, Romans.1.16
This can be done through
Inviting friends, family members and relatives.
Participating in one for Jesus every program
