WALKING BY FAITH
WALKING BY FAITH

Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. ESV
Faith is the life of the man who has been made the righteousness of God and justified from all things. Our walk with God is that of faith. No one can truly serve God effectively without faith. That’s why I feel sorry for those who attack the faith message and makes a mockery of faith preachers.
From our theme scripture, what the Holy Ghost is saying to the church is that, without faith you cannot please God in your health, finances, ministry, marriage and career. Without faith your health will fail; without faith your finances will fall apart; without faith your ministry is in jeopardy. Faith is the way out of your predicament. Without it you are stranded in life. It is the shield that wards off the fiery darts of the wicked one.
When you give, you ought to give by faith. Some folks give with the mindset of contribution. No wonder they get nothing in return because they are not doing it by faith. When we give in church, we are not contributing. When you give as contribution, you will lose because it is not of faith; and anything that’s not of faith is sin. The next time you give in the house of God, do it by faith. That means do it because the word says so, and expect what God promised us when we give.
This is one reason why I don’t believe in payment of dues in churches. When you pay dues, there is no faith attached to it because, dues imply a debt you owe. Hence dues payment is not of faith. I know some folks may be uncomfortable with this truth. In our church, we don’t collect dues. All our giving are of a willing heart which is acceptable to God. And I have seen tremendous blessings any time I release my seed in faith.
When it comes to the Holy Communion, some folks do it as a ritual. No, it is not a ritual. Actually, it is the faith by which you put into eating it is what will determine how much you receive from it. Take the Holy Communion by faith. When you see the Holy Communion as your health, wealth and prosperity, then you are eating by faith; and that’s what pleases God. I admonish you today to do everything in the kingdom by faith.
