Matthew 17 : 20 - Faith has more Power than you can Think of
He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
It all starts somewhere, it begins with something. But nothing will happen without it, the faith we have depends on what we do and what we would achieve. God's faith brings us through everything and it takes us beyond our imaginations.
Faith has more power than we can even imagine. We use faith to be positive and to give hope to people by saying "just have faith, it will work out". We rely on faith to give us what we need but when we do not get what we want, we start denying our faith. We start to question our belief and that is wrong.
God has a plan for each of us and we just have to rely on our faith that the plan he has, even if it will take forever.
The Bible defines faith in Hebrews 11:1,
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
But then there are the dead faith, where people rely on faith, but they don't follow the rules and then afterward gets upset with God. We do not need to get upset, we need to believe that it will happen. We have to pray, and with my experience is prayer the strongest way. It opens doors.
James quote :
“You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?”
God gives faith to those who seek. To those who believe, and to those who are in need. And faith will get us through a lot. It got me through some tough times. We just have to believe!
Faith is trust, confidence and belief in God. To have faith you have to follow the rules. Faith is not just belief, but the actions you take towards God.
Wow, I love the acronym "Forwarding All Issues to Heaven!" I'm sending it along to several friends and family.
It's so true that, like you said, "Faith is trust, confidence and belief in God." It's not enough to just believe in Jesus, but believe Him when he says, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matt. 11:28 KJV) We can trust that whatever is happening will be for our good. Faith gives us power to overcome!
