TEXT: "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Heb 11:1)

There are scriptural principles that are required if we will possess our possessions. One of such principles is faith lifestyle. Hear me child of God, you cannot receive anything from God if your faith is not in place. Today's anchor scripture says without faith it is impossible to please God, not without tears. Your fearful or pitiful tears before God only makes things worse because it shows your lack of confidence in God and what He can do. It is faith that moves God, not tears. 

What is faith in this context? It is the substance of things hoped for. God has given you all things in the spirit realm but, you need to relate with them as substance before they can manifest in the physical realm. This substance is called "HOPE." Keep your hope alive, don't to give up. So many people give up too soon; the reason they don’t see any blessing in their lives. Hope is what fertilizes faith thereby producing a miracle called testimony.

How to keep hope alive?

(1) Believe that God is always right and that He is always on time knowing that He makes all things beautiful in His time (Eccl 3:11).

(2) Trust God and don't ever serve Him because of what you want to get from Him. Job said that even if God slays him he will still trust Him till his change comes. (Job 13:15).

(3) Believe that God is always faithful. He is at work in you. He is not through with you yet. When a building is in progress, from the foundation, it doesn’t look appealing but when it is completed and painted you will see the beauty.

PRAYER: You will not shed tears over that issue again, in Jesus name.
