Faith is visible

“When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”” Luke 5:17

Faith is one of the most important evidence in the life of a Christian, the only evidence stronger than faith is Love. When faith is in place, result is inevitable.  Faith is needed to please God. God is not a respecter of persons, but He respects a Man of faith. Now faith is not something mysterious, it can be understood. Faith is visible. James said in James 1:18 that, “I will show you my faith by my work” Our text today was about four men, who broke the top of a roof in order to put their sick friend in front of Jesus despite the tight space in a crowded house. Jesus saw what they did and the bible recorded that Jesus saw their faith.

Beloved, your faith is clearly seen by your action. If you say you believe, we cannot be sure until you act out your belief. The four friends believed that Jesus was anointed to help their friend. They did not stay at home and begin to say “we believe”. They took him to where Jesus was. When they got there, it became impossible for them to bring him before Jesus. The house was crowded. But because they believed, they sought for a way. The only way available was to break the top of the roof. They did this and got their friend to Jesus. Jesus saw it and called it faith.

If you believe God, you will obey Him. If you believe in miracle, you will declare it. Faith is not complete without action. Devil also believed but he never acted on that belief. If you believe God has spoken to you then take steps. There will never be a perfect condition to act. Abraham was told to go to where God would show him, he left in obedience to God. A lot of people, when God has spoken to them, they confer with fresh and blood and miss the best of God (Galatians 1:16).

If you believe God for a child, go buy the cloth of the sex of the child you believe God for and continue to declare I am blessed with children in Jesus name. If you believe God has healed you then rise up and walk, leave the bed of sickness alone. If you are believing God for a job, start applying and declare that God is making room for you. If you are believing God for a business, go and start with what you have. If you truly love and believe God, serve Him. Let there be evidence of your belief in the church you attend. And if you truly believe that God is your source, be a tither, pay your tithe and support the church you belong to with the materials God has blessed you with.

Beloved, faith is what makes things happen. If you truly have a faith, your action will show it.

Have a blessed week.
