Seeds of Destiny 18th November 2021 SOD Devotional For Today
Faith is critical to life and destiny. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. (Hebrews 11:6). So, to please God and fulfil destiny, your faith in God must be in place.
Now, faith is in place when the revelation of the Word of God in the heart of a person produces a conviction that is strong enough to result in corresponding action.
This means, faith begins with a revelation. Faith begins with the revelation of the Word of God. Romans 10: 17 says,
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
So, it is not possible for faith to be in place where the Word is out of place. Whatever we claim to believe outside the Word is ordinary mental assent or something else but not faith. Bible faith is never in place without solid Word. Faith is not believing blindly for something to happen; faith is standing on the Word of God.
For example, if someone stands on a storey building and says, “If I should jump down from here now, I believe that I will not die because I have faith in God”. That is foolishness. That is presumption. That is stupidity that will end in calamity. That is not faith. The Word of God must be the basis of faith for faith to work.
Therefore, my counsel is, treasure the Word. Study the Word always. Ground yourself in the Word so you can manifest faith.
REMEMBER THIS: Faith is not believing blindly for something to happen; faith is standing on the Word of God.
ASSIGNMENTS:
