Just Believe

John Great July 20, 2014 Faith 2

Hebrews 4:3; For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. We can understand from this verse that REST is for those that believe, so we can say it like this; If you believe you will enter into rest, hallelujah! If you believe. The word ‘If ‘ tells us that you have a part to play in entering. Some people want to believe that God will just carry them into rest but the truth is, entering is your own decision and action. If you believe, you will act. It’s your choice to either enter in or stay out. … Although the works were finishe... »

The Power of Success is in Your Mouth

John Great June 14, 2014 Don't Stop!, Faith, Prosperity, The Authority of a Believer, Your Power As A Christian 2

Prov 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. The Word of God tells us that God has blessed us with every possible type of blessing in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:3). This is an awesome truth. However, how do we make these blessings MANIFEST in our lives? When we do not see God’s blessing in our lives, is the issue that God has gotten angry with us? The Word of God assures us that God still loves us just the same, no matter what we have done – because of His grace which he LAVISHES on us. (Ephesians 1:7-8). So why are these free blessings not manifesting yet? Well, the Bible says in Proverbs 10:21 that The lips of the r... »

The God Of The Hopeless Situation

John Great June 13, 2014 Don't Stop!, Miscellaneous, Strength in the Word, The Power of the Word 0

Rom 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, WHO QUICKENETH THE DEAD, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. Our God is the God of HOPELESS (DEAD) situations. He is the God who still has the final say, even when the game is already over. The Lord who can still turn the game around EVEN after the final whistle has been blown. The whistle had been blown on Lazarus’s life, but when Jesus said to His disciples, It’s time for us to go and see Lazarus (the dead man), his game was turned around. Do not give up because it is taking time. It might take time, but it will come to pass. Jesus took time, bu... »

Last time, we saw how hope is what gives us strength and confidence to go on for God, now matter what. Faith is what makes us act on the Word of God and receive His promises, and how love guides us on why we do everything we do. Love is God in us, for God is love (1John 4:8). These virtues would give us the strength we need to stand and RECEIVE all God has for us, and to receive it in such a way that is RIGHT IN LINE with God’s plan for us. Definitely, we need these virtues… But how do we get them? We can get these 3 virtues in our lives simply by taking in the Word of God, and obeying the voice of the Spirit. The Bible says faith comes by hearing the Word of God (Ro 10:17). Hope... »

1Co 13:13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love. The Bible tells us about faith, hope and love, and that the greatest of these is love. This means there can actually be a greater one among them. Also, the Bible tells us that faith is the evidence of things HOPED for. This shows us that faith is the next level on hope. In other words, there are these three, in the following order: LOVE, FAITH AND HOPE. What does this mean? It is this: when we start out, God starts with us on HOPE. Why hope? Well, hope is that STRENGTH that comes through the Word of God, that gives us the encouragement, confidence and zeal to keep pressing on, no matter what. Then God ... »
