Faith is the Key to a Victorious Christian Life

Scripture Reference: Romans 4:13-21

Romans 4:13 says: "It was not through law that Abraham and his offspring
received the promise that he would be heir of the world,
but through the righteousness that comes by faith."

According to Hebrews 11:1, “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” . We can see that Abraham was sure of his promise though he had not yet seen it, and he was certain that he’d receive it because God has the power.
Through this we know that it was FAITH that helped Abraham to overcome his unbelief and receive the promises of God. Abraham believed that God had the power to do what He promised although it was against all hope in the situation that Abraham faced.

In today's devotion, I want to share with you that if you want to succeed and live a Victorious Christian Life, you need to rise up in Faith and believe in God's promises.
From my personal experience, God has always chosen to bless us, but the issue is whether we believe and choose to receive His blessings. The evil one is always trying to accuse us of all our wrongdoings and deceive us that God will not bless us. We need to hold firm to our faith in our Heavenly Father and trust in His Word that His faithfulness prevails.

Is there a past experience or failure that has shaken your faith in God???
Do you want to BREAKOUT of it today?
I want to encourage you that within today, share with your pastor, G12 leader or even your own cell leader and ask them to pray with you and impart new faith unto you so that you may believe again and begin to see the great promises of God coming to pass in your life in 2007.

Let go of the old and receive the new!!!!

So begin to look into the scripture for the promises of God for your life.
Claim those promises for yourself and rise up in faith until you see those promises coming to pass.
Today, be determined that you will not let the evil one deceive you or defeat you, but you will rise up in faith to believe in God!!!
“Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.” Rom 10:17
