"Now Faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed of things we hope for, being the proof of things we do not see and the conviction of their reality ( faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses").
Hebrews 11:1 ( Amplified Bible)
If we were to dissect, analyze and extract the wisdom from this scripture we would be better equipped to exercise our faith to a capacity that would literally be explosive!
Worry, anxiety, depression, impatience, anger and frustration are all emotions that come to the surface because "we" lack faith. We focus so much on the physical realm that we lose sight of the spiritual realm. We feed our physical everyday, but neglect our spirit and so when a tiny, microscopic, minute, wave hits our shore, we get washed away. While we are still in the shallow, we are sputtering and coughing and we are not even in the deep. The absence of faith makes ant hills look and feel like steep, immovable mountains!
With faith, however, there is peace, joy, happiness and patience because we have the unfailing belief that though we have not seen the manifestation of what we are hoping for....yet, or heard the news that we are waiting for... yet, or felt the embrace of who we are longing to see...yet, or tasted the food that we are craving for...yet, or the smelled the aromas of my mother's cooking...yet, (this one is personal) I know I will. I don't know when. I don't know how, but I know I will!
If you purchase property or a home, it does not become yours officially until you have a "title deed".
When you have that legal deed or document, then you can claim ownership! It is yours! It belongs to you!
Well, faith works the same way.
You purchased the answer to your request, your petition, when you prayed. You know the answer is "yes" but just as how after you have purchased the property, you have to wait on the title deed, well prayers sometimes work the same way.
Now, you may be asking yourself,
"How do I wait faithfully until I see what I prayed for?"
TIPS ON HOW TO ACTIVATE YOUR FAITH.
💥😀 Speak the future you don't yet see.
👓💬 Visualize the future you don't yet see.
✍Write the vision you don't yet see. " Write the vision and make it plain." ( Habbakuk 2:2).
🤐 Don't hang around naysayers; change your company or they will change you. " Bad company corrupts good morals." (1 Corinthians 15:33).
🕒 Get rid of the things that make you live in the "negative past". You can't engage your faith to find a spouse, if you hang on to that T-shirt that belonged to an "X".
❤ Read or listen to the word of God... DAILY.
There is a reason the letter "I" is the middle of the word FAITH.
I can only move God to move when I activate my faith to believe and hope for the evidence of things not yet seen but still knowing I shall receive.
Be encouraged! No matter what it looks like. No matter what it feels like, whatever you are hoping for shall manifest in your favour in Jesus' Mighty Name!
Today, I implore you to wait on your "TITLE DEED" because your supplication to God has already been supplied!
Note to self.
Ah-Men!
