Ever struggled with your faith?

 1 Timothy  6:12  Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.


Have you ever struggled with your faith?, or perhaps you're presently struggling with yours. There are times when you're trying to believe for a particular course and then it just feels nothing is changing. You've believed, prayed, confessed, prophesied and even tried walking in the reality of it, and it still seems nothing is changing. Don't lose hope or fret, this process is called "the purification of your faith". Delayed answers aren't to weaken us but strengthen us. Just as gold is purified in fire, so is faith purified in challenges. I always take a cue from the man who was at the pool of Bethesda for 38 years, such a touching story of faith I will be frank. The pool of Bethesda wasn't a place where impotent folks came to beg, it was a place where they came to receive healing. Now, there were also certain impotent folks outside begging alms, example was the man found at the temple gate called Beautiful. But the pool of Bethesda was strictly a place for healing. Now, I've always wondered "why didn't this man just leave this pool, and stay outside begging alms as some other impotent folks did", why would he wait these 38 long years and see no result? Such faith for 38 years! Well, he later would have the King of Glory visit him specially. Read the story yourself, Jesus didn't heal any other person that day at the pool except this man as the Bible records, this was a visit because of a man's faith and patience. Friend, because nothing is changing doesn't mean you're possibly doing the wrong thing, some times it's a process to get your miracle ready and loud. Fight the good fight of faith with patience and win! Do have a restful weekend ahead.

Count the Cost

  Luke  14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? I'd never forget a knowledge I got in my Economics class while I was in my Pre-degree programme in 2013. The lecturer asked "what comes first, consumption or production?", without any hesitation, everyone shouted " Production ". The lecturer looking at us unsatisfied with some subtle grin on his face, asked " why?" , a guy raised his hand confidently, got up and said " because we produce before consumption can take place", the lecturer laughed, and we all for a minute looked bemused with certain indistinct chatters here and there, after some minutes, the lecturer called the young man and asked "so what happens when you produce and there's no one to consume it", and for about some few seconds, there was a seeming silence in the hall, you could hear a pin drop. The loud silence was fol...
