Winning The Faith Fight 6

“And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Luke 18:7-8

If your faith says yes, God will never say no. Be persistent in prayers. Persistency is an evidence of the winning faith. If you believe God for it, don’t stop mentioning it in prayers until you receive it. The persistent widow said the same thing until she got answer, “Grant me justice against my adversary.” Jesus said that was faith. Bartimaeus shouted, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus said so him, “your faith has healed you.” Jacob said from midnight till day break, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.” The Angel said to him, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.” if you have faith, you will say it until you receive it. You will stay on one prayer point for hours and not be weary, until you have answers. The woman with the issue of blood thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” When she put her thought into action, she was not refused. Although the anointing was meant for the twelve-year-old dead daughter of Jairus, she quickly harnessed it for the healing of her twelve years old issue of blood. Jesus said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”

I see you getting results with your faith.

Prayer for today: I receive grace to be persistent in faith until I get results in Jesus name.

“But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.” Mathew 14:30-32

Let Jesus help your faith. There can be situations when you are really afraid and your faith will fly away. But in this kind of situation you can still win the faith fight if you allow Jesus to hold your hand and help you. Note in our text today that Peter doubted because of the wind and began to sink. However, when Jesus held his hand, he continued to walk on water despite the fact that the wind was still there. The wind did not stop until they both entered the boat. Peter still won the faith fight because Jesus helped him. Jesus is willing to help you to win with your faith.

“Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”” Mark 9:23-24

Jesus helped the faith of the father of the child by setting his child free. Jesus will help you too. Spend time with Jesus in prayer, worship and meditation on the scriptures. The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” (Luke 17:5). If you are having difficulty in believing God, ask Jesus to help you.

I decree, you have the winning faith in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: O God help my unbelief and increase my faith in Jesus name.

“That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:12.

Patience is a major factor to win the faith fight. You must be in constant agreement with the promise in changing circumstances until the promise manifest. What this means is that you must keep on confessing or acting on the word whether your situation agrees with it or not until your situation agrees with it. If you are believing God for healing, keep on declaring the word whether it gets better or not until your body begin to respond and you eventually get better. The manifestation of the promise is instant in the spirit but may take time in the physical. During this time of waiting, you must hold the promise as a tangible substance. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).

In Mathew 14:29-32, Peter walked on water based on the word he received from Jesus. He lost grip of the word and started sinking because of the wind, a change in the situation. The word works in all situations, faith is a winner at all times. Never lose grip on your faith no matter how long it takes and what happens on the way.

I see God’s promises coming to pass in your life in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Lord help me to be constant in faith no matter what happen. I receive grace to patiently walk in faith until I see results in Jesus name.

“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” 1 John 5:4

When God’s word is spoken and heard, faith is born. This word is superior to your situation and circumstances. It has power to make all things conform to it, if it is believed, declared and acted upon. Faith becomes a fight when the evidence seems to be contrary to the word. If you choose to believe the evidence you lose but if you believe the word you win. Twelve spies were sent to the promised land. They all saw the same things but ten of them decided to believe what they saw while the other two believed the promise. Only the two that believed the word of God got into the land. Jairus was told that his daughter was dead. Jesus said he should not be afraid but needed only to believe. He believed Jesus, and his daughter passed from death to life. Any situation is subject to change, when there is a word for it.

“Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 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. And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.” Luke 5:4-6.

Beloved, to win the faith fight, ask for a word. And whatever the word says, do it.

I see you getting into your promised land in Jesus name.

“Jesus says, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there, and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you” [Matthew 17:20, Luke 17:6].

Faith has capacity to grow so a little faith is all you need. Just like the biggest plant is in the small mustard seed. Your greatest miracle is in your little faith. Never doubt the power of your little faith. The evidence of your faith is in your “saying.” Say to the mountain where it should move to. The mountain is waiting for what you will say to it. If you say something to it, it will obey. If you say nothing, it will just stay there. If you can say it, nothing will be impossible for you. Say it until you see it. All situations that are confronting you are waiting for your instruction through your faith filled words.

Ezekiel was taken to the valley full of dried bones in Ezekiel 37. The dried bones became a mighty army after a series of instructions given by Ezekiel as revealed to him by God. The bones came together. The flesh came upon them. The spirit came into them. All because Ezekiel said it to them.

Beloved, to win the faith fight, you must say something that agrees with your faith.

That mountain is crumbling before you in Jesus name.

“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:” 2 Timothy 4:7

Faith is a good fight. One reason is that the world-way is different from the bible-way, you must keep the faith in Christ and in His word. Another reason is that your present situation does not represent the best of God for you. You must see what God has for you and experience it despite your present situation. This also takes the faith fight. Lastly when the facts and the truth are not in agreement, you need faith to turn the fact to the truth.

Faith is a life time fight. You must understand it and use it for you to truly live on earth. Habakkuk 2:4, Roman 1:17 and Hebrews 10:38 emphasized that the Just shall live by faith. Anytime you need to challenge the status quo and make change a reality, the weapon of faith must be handy. When faith is present, result is inevitable.

Faith is both a gift and a fruit. This means God can give you the gift of faith and you can also develop faith. Lastly for this introduction of the series “Winning the faith fight,” patience and hope are faith enhancers.

I see you winning all your battles in Jesus name.

Three forces that determine your life 3

“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” 1 Cor 13:13

The greatest force that determines your life is the force of love. When this force is operating in your life you will enjoy the fullness of God. When this force is operative, all the laws of God are automatically obeyed. Romans 13:10 says, “Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.” Mathew 22:37-40 says, “Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” This force will always conquer poverty, infirmity, and all forces of evil. This force is about loving God, loving yourself and loving your neighbor. If you love God, you will obey Him. If you obey God, He will bless you, protect you, guide you and help you. The presence of God is with them who obey Him. You may pass through fire and through water, if the presence of God is with you, you will come out victoriously. If you love yourself, you will live a purposeful life. You will develop yourself, set goals, go after your goals and never give up. If you love your neighbor, you will not do him harm.

May the force of love be operative in your life. May you get to your promised land in Jesus name.
