The only thing that will sustain you at any moment in time and mostly in an increasingly uncertain and challenging time as today is your absolute faith in Christ Jesus, in the truth in His words, and in His peaceful guidance through the Holy Spirit. Your physical strength is not enough to sustain you in the days of your challenges; your knowledge is not at its best when the floods of darkness seeks to shake you; at this time, there is little or nothing that friends and family can; it is only your faith in God that has the power to keep you from falling and keep the devil from shifting you, while sustaining and preserving you at the same time.

On the day you were saved, God gave you two things, 1. The grace to make heaven when you continue in Him to the end. 2. the capacity to exercise your faith in Him, It is only through the power of your faith in God that you will be able to find the peace you need in challenging times, the joy you deserve now, and be able to achieve the purpose you were made to achieve.

Let the foundation of your faith be in God’s salvation plan for you, protection, happiness and security of your life; let it be in the capacity and willingness of Jesus Christ to fulfill all of His promises in your life, let it never be based on your thoughts or any of the empty words of men irrespective of their capacity and tittle. It is only through the activation of your faith that the word of God is made living, active, capable and effective in your situation. Faith is never an illusion or magic, but power rooted in God’s words and principles and activated by your belief, actions and continuous trust God in all situations irrespective of your profession and location.

Faith is not a postponed plan, thought or action; it is the immediate application of the given plans, thoughts and actions that is in accordance to the word of God in the scriptures. Faith is nothing else but acting on the word of God for your life right now. “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by faith the elders obtain a good report. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” Hebrews 11:1-3. Remember, faith has its time of application and its time of producing result, patience is actively needed.

Faith is trusting God beyond what you can see, hear, feel, touch and smell, it is believing God instead of yourself or anyone else. It is looking unto God and keeping your focus on Him in the brightest or darkest moment of your life. You may play down your words, thoughts and strength, but never play down the strength and the expected result of your activated and elevated faith in God through Christ Jesus. Despite what people may say and do, faith is still very effective, active and produces great results in all things. These are some results of unflinching faith for you today.

“Motivated by faith he (Moses) left Egypt behind him, being un-awed and undismayed by the wrath of the king; for he never flinched but held staunchly to his purpose and endured steadfastly as one who gazed on Him Who is invisible. By faith he instituted and carried out the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn might not touch the children of Israel. Urged on by faith, the people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but when the Egyptians tried to do the same thing they were swallowed up by the sea. Because of faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encompassed for seven days. By faith Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed along with those who refused to believe and obey, because she had received the spies in peace. And what shall I say further? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets, who by faith subdued kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promised blessings, closed the mouths of lions, Extinguished the power of raging fire, escaped the devouring of the sword, out of frailty and weakness won strength and became stalwart, even mighty and resistless in battle, routing alien hosts.” Hebrews 11:27-34. The power in your faith can produce results. For Prayers Click here
