Life's lesson ~ FAITH

Sometimes in life we overlook many things that are important to us. Influences start to draw people apart from the ways that have been taught all their lives, especially young people. We lose focus on the things that matter in life and begin to depend on the pleasures of the world. But for us to be of any success, we have to turn ourselves from the things that drag us down and walk in the examples that have been set before us. This is the only way we can find any solution to our numerous problems that most of the time we think we can fix them ourselves. You try so many things, go to great lengths to try and find help when it is lying right in front of you. The problem that most people have is pride. People don’t want to take advice because they think they will be losing their dignity, they want to be the one’s known to know everything. But as long as one remains stubborn and hardens their head, they cannot receive any help that they need. Maybe sometimes we are not given the best of advice, but give someone the chance to have their say, then you be the invigilator and you have a right to mediate what you have been given. But for anyone to be success they must be willing to take in what other people have to say for them to better themselves.

There are so many things that happen in life that teach everyone a lesson. But to walk this road of life is not easy, that is why you must apply the principle of the Word. You cannot be successful if you live life in a haphazard way. For anything that is made, there is a operational manual. So as human beings, we will never be able to reach our full potential unless we read the manual. Because if you buy something, and just use it from your own intellectual knowledge, you are not using it to its full potential; because there are many things about that thing, that you do not know it has unless you read the manual. Therefore what we need to use for ourselves is the Word of God. There is no success outside of it. The key principle that we need is in the Word, and that is FAITH. “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God”. “Without Faith it is impossible to please God”, and it is absolutely impossible.

Many people say they have faith, but they have nothing to show for it. But the word of God says that “Faith without works is DEAD”. So no matter how much a person says they have faith and do not show anything for it, it is of no use at all. There is always an action that follows faith. You have to show faith by your actions, because God will come and honour the action of faith that you’ll take. Where there’s faith there are always risks, but you need to have an aggressive faith, that will defy the odds. That’s what faith is all about, it reaches out for a paradox because that’s the way God works. The solution that He’ll give will be so much above your imagination when you expect something else. It may be the simplest solution, but the wonders it will work are phenomenal.

Now in everyday that I’m living , I’m expecting a miracle, I’m expecting something out of the ordinary, I’m expecting the impossible. This a year with an anointing of ACTION. I feel it deep within me, because you can’t just sit down and not act. There has to come a time where you will welcome change, with open arms. Change has come, this is the season for change, and it is going to take effect. I may not know how, I may not when, but my God has got it all in control and He’s working on it. I am not where I want to be, but one thing for sure, is that I’m not what I used to be. To make me what I need to be. It took him just a week to make the moon and stars the sun and the earth and Jupiter and Mars. How loving and patient He must be; 'Cause He's still working' on me. Amen
