THINGS THAT MOVE GOD #1

I Have always admire the power of electricity. The power of electricity is so dangerous and potent. As powerful as it is, it still has no effect on certain materials, not because those materials can harness its power but rather those materials don't possess that property to tap or conduct its power. Wood, rubber are poor conductors of electricity. It is amazing to see the kind of powers God possesses yet people cannot tap into that power to function.

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11:6 NKJV

The scripture above says, ''without faith it is impossible to please God" meaning that it is hard for God to accept a person who is faithless. Whenever we pray, our faith must be in action. When our faith is in action that is when the miraculous happen in our life.

One of the things that moves God is our faith. This is why Jesus marvelled when he saw the great faith of the Roman Centurion. The man had pleaded Jesus to heal his sick servant. Jesus wasn't moved by the fact that a great man had submitted to him but rather a man of his calibre to make a request with such great faith. God wants us to do same whenever we pray, because it is what moves Him to grant our request quickly.

Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him, saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.” And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” The centurion answered and said, “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel! And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour. Mathew 8:5-13 NKJV
