What Faith is: Faith is a lifestyle…
Faith is a Lifestyle… a choice lifestyle.. Faith is not a means to an end.
- Faith is not a means to an end…
Faith is not meant to be engaged when you need an answer to a problem..
Faith is to be operated in all seasons of life…
“For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise: “For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.” (Hebrews 10:36–38 NKJV)
We are to live by faith…
“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)
FAITH IS A LIFE STYLE…
SETTLE INTO IT…
ADOPT IT…
LIVE IT…
Faith is an all life long journey.,. Engaging Faith in everything and at all times. Then, only then can one reap the dividends of faith.
When Faith becomes your lifestyle, engaging Faith in seemingly serious life issues become very easy…
2. The Lifestyle of Faith is the Training Ground…
Signing in for a lifestyle of Faith is signing in for God’s training on Faith…
Operating Faith in simple matters help in training for the more serious and demanding days of storms…
“If you faint in the day of adversity, Your strength is small.” (Proverbs 24:10 NKJV)
GOD wants to train our hands on Faith in simple easy things of life. And those small wins… will boost our confidence in taking on greater heights in Faith.
3. Spiritual Authority grows with Faith …
Faith is not in mere saying… ‘I TAKE AUTHORITY’
Authority grows with Faith.
GOD wants us have Dominion in every area of this life. However, before you can Dominate, you must first have to be Fruitful, then Multiply, then fill the earth, Subdue, then, and then you can have Dominion! (Genesis 1:28)
When you make Faith a Life style.. you avail yourself for Faith training… so you are better prepared when storms of life come by. Lack of victory preparedness is the undoing of many in Church today…
Many dust their Faith Jacket when storms come knocking…Too late…That is not training time,That is warring time…
To reign in life, you must be victory ready… with a life style of Faith…
4. Some Biblical Examples …
- David faced bear and Lion, and defeated them before he faced Goliath. (1 Samuel 17).
- Abraham faced relocation from his comfort zones, chose Canaan land instead of Egypt during famine, before he was faced with the choice of offering his only son as a sacrifice… (Genesis 11–22)
- The disciples of our Lord JESUS CHRIST when commissioned and sent out on outreach in Luke 9:1–2 had authority over many demons…
However in Mark 9… attempting to do it on their own, they could not cast out the Dumb and Mute spirit in one boy’s life…
Life is in phases, men are in sizes… Live your size per time… -Bishop David Abioye, Living Faith Church, Abuja, Nigeria.
5. How to develop a Lifestyle of Faith …
To develop Faith, you need to engage the Word of God.
‘So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.’ (Romans 10:17).
Start with engaging the Word of GOD, read it, meditate it, then agree with the Word, Practice it, insisting it’s manifestation in your life… Making the Word of GOD a final authority in all your life experiences… If the Word of GOD says so, then it is so!
Doing this regularly will boost your faith and increase your spiritual authority over the storms of life.
