According To Your Faith; That's How God Works For You

in #steemchurch6 years ago

And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. Mathew 9:27-29

God has given each one of us a measure of faith. We all have the given the same spirit of faith but not the same measure. Some have a strong and powerful faith whiles others have small amount of faith.

For by the grace given to me I ask every one of you not to think of yourself more highly than you should think, rather to think of yourself with sober judgment on the measure of faith that God has assigned each of you. Romans 12:3

Any measure of faith is good enough to move even the biggest mountain that stands tall and becomes an obstacle to our lives. However God expect us to work on our faith and develops it. We need to grow in faith in the Lord.

God is always pleased when we walk with Him with faith. He wants us to have a strong faith in Him that He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we can ask or even think of.

God respond to our prayer request not according to the length of our prayer and the intensity of our cry or wailing in prayer but according to our faith in Him.

If God works according to our faith then it is so important for each one of us to be concerned about developing a strong faith in the Lord.
The two blind man who came to Jesus for their healing received their sight because of their own faith.

They had not seen Jesus in person neither did they saw him opening blind eyes, so what could have possibly be their reason for their strong faith in Jesus?

There could be only one reason and that is what they heard about Jesus(the word), perhaps they heard about how he opened the eyes of blind Bartimeus, healed the lepers, raise the dead and set the oppressed free.

They had already developed their faith in Jesus so when He asked them whether they believe that he has the ability to heal them they replied yes.

To develop such faith we need to be constant hearers of the word, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. The word has to get deep into our spirit for it to do what it says concerning our lives.

We should devote ourselves to feeding ourselves with the word to build our faith in the Lord for God always work according to our faith.

God Bless You
