THE HERITAGE OF OUR FATHERS

THE HERITAGE OF OUR FATHERS

Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. NIV

I believe one of the most treasured things our fathers in the faith gave to us is the knowledge of the “faith walk”. I am so grateful for men of God who heralded and spearheaded the faith movement. I celebrate men like E. W. Kenyon, Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, Jerry Savelle, Oral Roberts and the likes, and in recent times people like Bishop David Oyedepo, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome etc. They really handed to us a jewel of all times.

These men knew how to make their faith work for them. It brought them out of poverty and were able to surmount difficult situations. They subdued their world by the force of faith. And more importantly, they taught us these things the Holy Ghost revealed to them through their tapes and books. For this I am very grateful.

Most churches don’t teach the message of faith. As I talk and interact with a lot of folks from different denominations, one thing is evident, they have not been grounded in the message of faith. They don’t know how to release their faith and make it work effectively; they lack the knowledge of sending their faith on an errand. I wonder what kind of life I would have been living if not for the revelation of the faith message!

How would I have been able to tame sickness and diseases? How would I have been able to deal with the situations of life? Faith is “the victory” and not “a victory”; hence if you don’t know how it works, victory will elude you. The knowledge of what faith is and its operation is of great importance to the believer in Christ who desire a life of sweatless triumph.

Hebrews 11:33-35 says, Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

Faith will deliver to you anything that you want in life. It will make life easier for you. Your struggles cease the day you encounter true faith. I admonish you to start the journey of learning how faith works. Get the tapes of these anointed men of God whose faith have been proven over time and learn from them. It is the smartest way to learn. And when you learn these principles, immediately put them to work and you will see results. Don’t waste time; start learning about faith now!
