Mark 11:22-25
22 "Have faith in God," Jesus answered. 23 "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. NIV
According to Heb 11:1-2
11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. NKJV
Faith is Now- not later! It must be applied NOW!
Faith is the substance of things we hope for- Substance means -matter, essence, material, core.Therefore it is the very reason why we hope for a thing to come.
Faith is the evidence of things not seen- It is what we are holding to believed.
Therefore Faith is power. Its active!
That's why Jesus said in book of Mark that it casn move mountain!
Every men and women who wants to see God doing His wonders and miracles must let their faith works!
The good thing is that God did not selectthe few to have faith -Rom 12:3
3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given youNIV
God is good that He give every one the potential to experience miracle in a personal level. We always wonder How God does things and the answer is there! By Faith! Book of Hebrews Explains How God exercise the power of Faith to make the thing created.
3 Things neede to make Faith works miracles
1. Faith must have the right source- The word of God is the right source to strenghten faith, as we know all men was givern by God a measure of fasith but sad to say not all men nurture thier faith rightly.
Some just depend on other, some in supertition others in reasons. But God gave the Word to make faith able to work miracles. Faith cometh from hearing and hearing the word of GodRom 10:17 says.
2. Faith must have the right connection -meaning it must be connected to the righ person, No other than Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. Heb 12:2. Only Jesus can make our faith reach the throne of God. Jn 14:6
-Another person that we must connect our faith to is with the people that possess and teasure thier relationship with Jesus- ! Cor 11:1. Being with right men will make our faith go strong and we will be influence to keep our faith in Christ. Though thier are noble and kind friend out tier, but as far as keeping a working faith is concern, we must be surrounded by men of faith.
3. Faith must be applied- As we see in the verses above fiaht to work must be used is;
prayer Mk 11:23, In ministering to others Mk 16:16-18, in Worship, Heb 11:6, In thought Phil 4:8 and in words-Mk11:23 and other records of the bible.
Well friends these things I share to you is a portion of the message I shared last Miracle service we had here in Toronto church.
God bless and always remember "God is greater than the totallity of problem in this world". God is able to make good things work in your life!
