ENHANCED FAITH FOR RECEIVING GOD'S BEST


Faith is the key to receiving God’s best. The Holy Bible in Hebrews 11:6, says that without faith, it is impossible to please God (KJV). As believers, we must have an unwavering confidence in God and believe that He is able to do anything. We must trust in His promises and have faith that He will fulfill them.

In John 15:7, Jesus said, “If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” This means that if we truly trust and believe in God, we can ask for anything and it will be granted to us. However, to be a beneficiary to this, we must first have an intimate relationship with God. Having an intimate relationship with God entails, possessing Jesus Christ as your LORD and personal Saviour. Psalm 145:8-9 says, “The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.” It is only after accommodating Him within the confines of your heart as your LORD and Master, that studying and reading the word of God while praying and seeking to do His Will, will become effective when we approach Him with boldness and confidence. 

James 1:6-8 says, “But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.” We must have strong and unwavering FAITH in God's potential abilities. Doubt and fear can hinder and prevent us from receiving God’s best. We must trust that God’s Word is true and that He will keep His promises. In Matthew 21:22, Jesus said, “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.” This is one of the most powerful promises God gave to us through Jesus Christ and we are expected to take it to heart. We must have Faith that God will answer our prayers according to His Will. We should not pray with doubt or uncertainty, but with confidence in God’s ability to answer our prayers.

The surest way to enhance our Faith in God is to meditate on His Word. Romans 10:17 says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” We must regularly read and study the Holy Bible, and allow its teachings to sink deep into our hearts and permeate our minds. When we are saturated with God’s Word, our Faith will blossom and we will be better equipped to receive God’s best. Lodgement of our Faith in God is equivalent to trusting in His ability to brings His goodness to our doorstep. The word of God in Jeremiah  29:11 says; “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end”. We must have Faith that God is good and that He desires the best for us. Even when circumstances seem difficult, we must trust that God is working things out for our good (Romans 8:28).

As a way of concluding this section, I will like to state clearly, that Faith is essential for receiving God’s best. We must have a solidified and unwavering Faith in God while we go about our various endeavours. Believing that He is capable of bringing into fulfillment every of His promise made known to us and by ensuring that our all is entrusted in Him, He will make His goodness to ravage our predicaments. Remember to Read and meditate on His Word, seek His Will and obey it, trust in His Faithfulness, and your Faith will be enhanced for great things because it is its peculiarity that gives us the impetus to boldly approach God in prayers. And as we do so, our requests will never go unanswered, in Jesus Name, Amen. Endeavour to put your Faith in the absoluteness of God and He will surprise you with his amazing wonders.

THE GOOD FRUIT OF EVERY GOOD TREE

  In the Holy Bible, specifically in the book of Matthew chapter 7, verse 17, it is written: "Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit." It is important to remember that most trees are known by the fruit they bear but as we digest this piece, let us not be quick to forget the spiritual principle that states that good actions will always yield good results, just as a good tree will yield good fruit. During the course of living our daily lives, we may have encountered situations where our actions and choices determined the outcomes we experience. This is a true reflection of this moral principle. However, the teachings of JESUS CHRIST as outlined in the Holy Bible must still serve as the guiding light for believers who seek to live righteous and fruitful lives. The fruit of a tree is a reflection of the health and vitality of the tree itself. Similarly, the choices and actions of every Christian showcases the character of g...

The Benevolence That Renews Our Minds

  In a world often fraught with stress, conflict, and uncertainty, finding inner peace and contentment can feel like an elusive dream. However, the ageless wisdom from God Almighty sheds light on the transformative power of a renewed mind while revealing to us the path that leads towards benevolence and fulfilment.   The concept of a renewed mind is emphasized in Romans 12:2. It states, "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." This verse encourages us to network our thoughts and ensure that it is in tune with the truth neptuned in God’s Will. A renewed mind foils the sense of inner peace and harmony. It allows us to view life's challenges through a lens of faith and resilience. Philippians 4:7 beautifully captures this promise, "And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus...

ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS FOR GREATNESS

Most things in life survive with the nutrition they get from ingesting food. Everything we take into our nervous system either acts to heal us or to destroy us. We must therefore ensure that we consider consuming those with the potentials for providing healing and reject every other. Do not think of nourishment only as what we take in through our mouths. What we consume with our eyes, our ears, our noses, our tongues, and our bodies also constitute the nutrients we feed on. Reasonable contribution and inputs that we occasionally deliver during the conversations we engage ourselves in on daily basis can only be possible by feeding on enriching and nourishing nutrients. We are not expected to neglect consistent consumption of healthy food both emotionally, physically and spiritually because they help in making us modern versions of the mind edifice that guarantees the indemnification of moral sanctity. Think about it this way. If moral sanctity blossom, the society will be filled with mo...
