The Essence Of Having Faith In God

He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. (John 14:12)

It is true that you would want to be filled with the power of God as a Christian. This is the exact interest of God because it sure that without the power of God in your life it will be very difficult to make success of your journey to heaven.

Glory be to God because he can do all things. The Holy Scripture is full of all the miracles that were done in the bible. The lame were made to walk, the blind were made to see. Sinners were delivered from the grip of sin and granted the lease of life.

Jesus is telling you today that all the record in the bible is a child’s play if only you can believe in him. Why is it so because he is going back to the father in heaven.  When he was here that he accomplished so much he was in flesh like me and you but now he is back to his natural heavenly position.

This is one of the passages in the scripture that had posed great challenge to professed Christians. Because of unbelief they could not believe that God can grant them the enabling to do greater works than Jesus. May God increase our faith. If it is difficult for you to believe that you can become the son of God with all attributes of God. How much more difficult to believe that you will the works that are greater than what Jesus had done.

Remember that the word of God cannot be abridged, whatsoever he says stands sure and unchangeable for ever. Heaven and the earth will pass away but the little jot of his word will never go unfulfilled. The challenge now is to believe him and lets see if we will not accomplish more works than he had done.

Devil would rather make you to feel unworthy of this promise of God. He would rather make you to feel that it is an act of pride to appropriate this promise, but it is the lie of devil. The word says that if only you can believe in Jesus. May God grant you that eternal faith to believe in him.

The promise once again is that ‘the works that I do shall he do also’ this first part is great. It is enough to do the works that Jesus did. It is worthy ambition that if achieved, you could be described as being successful christian. Glory be to God.

More that that is the second part of the promise which is this ‘greater [works] than these shall he do’ glory be to God. This is a point for me and you to consider. Why are we achieving so little in our personal, secular and spiritual life. We must do heart searching at this point. May God remove all the spiritual leakages in our spiritual life.

The verse said that if you believe in him. May God increase our faith so that we can achieve what God had promised us in our life. So that we will be able to take all the bounty supplies that God has in stock for us. God bless you.

Assurance of Victory at all Times

Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. (Romans 10:11).

Do you believe in the lord? You will never be ashamed. I am sure you will say Amen, because no sane person would want to be ashamed no matter what the situation is.

For you that believe in the lord it is more than prayer that you will not be ashamed but it is eternal promise of God to you.  In as much as you believe in the lord Jesus Christ you will have your way through all the challenges of life. It is the word of God and so shall it be.

In case you are yet to be grounded in the lord so that you can enjoy this great blessing of God this is an opportunity for you. Accept the word of God that all had sinned and come short of the glory of God, including you.


Believe that statement of fact and that because of that the judgment of God is on all unregenerate heart. If you believe this the next thing is that you will be interested in the way out of the wrath of God.

You will be looking for the way to change position, to be where you will never be ashamed. The promise is for those that believed in Him. If you believe in this state of sinfulness of every man in this world, then you will desire the way out.

The only way out is for you to believe in the death of Jesus on the cross of Calvary for your forgiveness. Since you admit that all have sinned ad needs redemption call on Jesus to wash your sins away with his blood after you had confess all your sins to God with promise that you will never go back to them again.

If this is done in faith you will never be ashamed in this world and the life after. It is the word of God and it is established in the heaven and the earth. You can never be ashamed no matter the circumstances of life. God bless you

Conditional Salvation

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name (John 1:12)

I am sure you will not feel very comfortable with the title of our discussion today. It is generally believed that Jesus came and died for the whole world. This is the truth and a statement of fact but unfortunately it is sad to note that not all will be saved. This will be so not because God cannot save all or the efficacy in the blood of Jesus is not enough but the problem is with them.

It is even surprising that some people find it offensive when you refer to yourself as a child of God. They wonder how possible can a man be so confident to refer to himself as a son of God. Some people consider it to be an act of pride. But we can all see it in the passage that there are people that can be referred to as the children of God.

The provision is for as many people that received him. When you received him you will be granted the power to become a son of God. This is the greatest privilege in the whole world. That means to be adopted into the family of God.

I am very sure that you will be highly elated if you have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of family of the first citizen of this country. To be referred to as a member of president family. In our country this will last for the maximum of eight years. After the tenure in the office it becomes family of ex-president.

When you are adopted into God’s family you it becomes eternal relationship so far you maintained the power bestowed onto you at the point of conversion. You have the full privilege with all other brethren even the first born of the family of God which is our lord Jesus Christ. This is great; it is something to aspire for.

The promise is for those that will believe in him. It is my earnest prayer that all

Those that will read this article will take the bold step to receive Jesus into their life and become the sons and daughters of God.

Basic Steps To receive from God

And all things, ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. (Matt 21:22)

In our discussion this today God is giving us a promise to draw from his limitless supply. This is a great blessing for all that named the name of the lord. It amazes me how great are the resources of God that are available to god’s children, yet very little of them are utilized or taken advantage of by His children.

And all things, says let the lord. Let us consider this phrase. It is only God that can give this promise because it is an open check. All the things that you can imagine or think about, the extent are limited by you.
I want to challenge you at this moment to open your inner mind. Try to challenge yourself to reasoning. Think big and expand you imagination, consider all that you can think to ask and request from God.

The main reason why you cheat yourself of God blessing is your inability to imagine how great God is. Many imagine God relative to their ability or capacity.  It is very easy for them to feel that if they should ask this it may be too much for God. But nay you should be able to see God in His greatness as you’re presenting   your request to him.

If you can see how great God is it won’t be difficult for you to bring your entire request to him. No matter how difficult is all your challenge or problem he is more than them and he can solve them. So take him at his word bring all what you want to him because he promise to grant you the request.

How do you bring the entire request, you bring them in prayer. How do you bring them in prayer, by asking Him in prayer. We are told in the scripture that with thanks giving we should bring our entire request to him prayer.

The most important thing to consider in the promise is to believe. To believe is to have the assurance that your request will be granted and that God is able to do it. This is where you can fatally fail to achieve your aim is you fail to believe him even though you are praying.

You should come to him boldly believing that he will do it. Failure to do this means you are just wasting your time. That is why it is possible for you to spend so much time in prayer yet little result. That is why you can profess to be praying to God on some issues and yet you are running from pillar to post proffering your own solution because you are not sure that God will do it.

Once you commit the issue to God and believing in Him surely He will answer your request. The last statement in the promise is that you will receive your request. By God’s grace your lot as a child of God is peace in you heart and life at all time.

In this single verse which is the eternal word of God, we can see that the basic steps to receive from God are outlined. To start with is the assurance that your entire request that you bring to God in prayer with powering engine of belief will surely be answered. May God bless you.
