The Power Of Faith

-

 

Faith is a natural and supernatural thing, it's natural because we as humans believe that the person driving the bus or the Uber will drive us to our destination, we have natural faith that the food we order from the restaurant will come to us, then you have the supernatural faith that is a spiritual faith God gave us to be healed like the woman who was bleeding for 12 years, who touched Jesus's garment and was healed. Luke 8:43-48 and then here was Abraham and Sarah who couldn't conceive kids but gave birth to Isaac in Genesis 21. 


Many Christians believe that faith is to only conqueror material blessings but it's not, God primarily gives us faith to be saved, to be baptised in water and the Spirit and to have salvation. Unfortunately, many believers lack the balance of faith some have faith to conquer material blessings and don't focus on their spiritual faith while some focus on being saved and don't fight for their physical life. When a Christian is more mature in their faith we know how to execute our faith, when to execute our faith and how to balance our faith. When one is immature in their we are emotional with our faith, they're performative with our faith and they don't know how to execute our faith just like the Pharisees did in the times of Jesus where Matthew 23 describes them as men who zealously followed a traditional religion but contradicted themselves on many occasions. 


As many people have different faiths, serves God differently whether you're a Pentecostal believer or a Seventh Day Adventist, neither can we judge those who don't believe in God or have the faith to acquire certain blessings. As the word says judge or you'll be judged Matthew 7 In liegeman's terms just because you have faith to eat the best, expensive and juicy meat don't judge those who have the faith to eat the cheap, rotten vegetables as it states in Romans 14:3.

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch nemesis

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Spirit Of Disobedience

"But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people." 2 Timothy 3:1-7   If you asked what is the reason or the biggest sin that takes Christians, people away from God? I would say justification of living in sin and when you're living in sin on PURPOSE you are disobeying God. In the word it says we shouldn't do A to Z but in in today times where even many Christian authorities disobey the ways of God. This is why there is many sorry to say many lost, weak Christians in the world. Okay we all have different spiritual journeys we all take time and move in differe
