HAVE FAITH: Without Faith It Is Impossible To Please God

HAVE FAITH

Without Faith It Is Impossible To Please God

Faith is one area that in the Bible we are encouraged to hold fast onto. The Bible tells us;

“But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out].”
(Hebrews 11:6 AMP)

“But the just shall live by faith [My righteous servant shall live by his conviction respecting man’s relationship to God and divine things, and holy fervor born of faith and conjoined with it]; and if he draws back and shrinks in fear, My soul has no delight or pleasure in him.”
(Hebrews 10:38 AMP)

In Hebrews 11:6 and 10:38 it is very plain that without faith you cannot please God and God will not have pleasure in you. This means that walking out of (not in) faith is very displeasing to God. Jesus rebuked the people for their faithlessness, and rebuked His disciples for their little faith. (Matthew 17:17; Mark 9:19; Luke 9:41; John 20:27). Jesus told Thomas to “not be faithless and incredulous, but [stop your unbelief and] believe!” Jesus wasn’t joking about that because the moment you start to walk in faithlessness and disbelief God will not grant you your requests, and your relationship with God shatters. It is a very serious thing. To have faith in God means that you put all your trusts in Him, believe in Him, rely on Him, depend on Him, and you are acknowledging that you cannot do anything on your own without Him. You are actually giving over everything into the hands of God and saying “God I need You.” God loves that. He loves it when we make Him number one in our lives – when we make Him the center of our lives. He loves it when we put our hopes and trust in Him, because then we give Him the rightful place that He alone deserves in our hearts. Remember that He is a jealous God and will not suffer anyone or anything to take His position in your life. If you put other things before God the only thing that remains, if you do not repent, is the dreadful judgement of God upon the unbelieving, the thieves and all the wicked people.

It doesn’t matter how much you give to the poor, or how many times you often go to church. None of that will count if you are faithless. It will be pointless if you do not have faith in God. It is by faith and through faith that we are saved and have peace with God, through our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

2 Masters

2 Masters Deut. 18:14  -  'For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.   One of the main reasons Saints of God today are not being blessed is because they are serving 2 masters. And when I say blessed, I'm not talking about money! Atheists, agnostics, homosexuals, luciferians, etc. all can have money without being blessed of God, so get that out of your head. We have been programmed to hear the word blessing and automatically reach in our wallets and pockets, but working will get you money. God does not have to shovel out cash because he doesn't have cash, men do! So, work and you will havemoney! But when I say blessing, I'm talking about, your children being free from the devils strongholds, your marriage being sound and loving, your home being free from witchcraft, your possessions being safe from robbers and ...

Be The Difference! Part 1

By
by King Julius Kwedhi "You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our conduct toward you believers." 1 Thessalonians 2:10 ESV We have often heard it said "You can take the boy out of the village, but it will surely prove hard to take the village out of him." But this sounds different to how you usually hear it, isn't it? You are used to hearing it thus "You can take the boy out of the village but you cannot take the village out of him." But the second part of this popular quote is not true because you can take the village out of the boy. But if the boy is making this as his bold declaration that you cannot take the village out of him, then know that you won't. But the mistake we make is this, we limit this principle to the village boy or jungle man scenario only. How about if we apply this same principle to the Church? How about if we, as the Church, make this our bold and confident declaration: "You c...
