Ask and Act!

“Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, master, have mercy on us!” So when He saw them, he said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priest.” Luke 17.11-14

Without a doubt the Lord Jesus could have healed those ten men right away at the same time because He has enough power to do that, but instead of healing them He told them to go and show themselves to the priest, though it’s not written but I don’t think that those sick and miserable men were expecting to see the priest while they were suffering with lepers, but they simply believed and did exactly as Jesus told them to do and on their way to see the priest they conquered their healing.

Meditating about what happened to those men we can easily understand why many people get disappointed with their faith, they carry in their mind a false idea that everything they have to do to be blessed is to say a prayer and that’s it, a miracle is going to happen, and the miracle never happens. They get disappointed and frustrated. For a miracle to happen it is more than necessary that actions of faith be taken to provoke a miracle. That’s why, the Lord Jesus didn’t think twice, He told the ten men with lepers to go and show themselves to the priest.

Whatever miracle you want it is more than possible to happen but, your faith has to be put into action, if you simply ask and wait for something to fall from heaven you’ll never change your life. Whenever you ask for anything from God make sure you are ready to act your faith in order to provoke the blessing you most want in your life.

Sunday, October 17th we will start a forty days journey of the power of asking, you will have the best opportunity to ask and to act your faith to bless your life.

Ask! You Shall Receive

Anxieties, preoccupations, fear, doubts, remembrance of bad results of the past, pride, low self-esteem, negative thoughts...these are some enemies of faith they can easily neutralize the power of any type of prayer and no matter how big your faith is, it won't work once it mixes up with some of the elements listed above.

God's greatest pleasure is to answer those who call upon Him, everything promised in the Bible is not for God Himself but for those who truly and boldly believe in it. God doesn't need money, house, healing or anything else but He knows we need all these things and for us to conquer them we just need to do as He said, "Ask!" But we should ask and believe with all our heart that the answer will come, it doesn't matter when or how the most important thing is to be ready to receive what we have asked Him for but if your prayer is mixed with anxieties or any type of preoccupation or fears, without a doubt there'll be no answer.

Make sure whenever you ask God for something believe you will receive it and don't give room for any other obstacle to prevent you from receiving the answer you want.

Be ready for Oct. 17th

Are You Revolted?

So many People are bound up to a life of always doing things the same old way!So many people are bound up to a life of always doing things the same old way, in their professional life, their marriage, or even in their faith.

But there is no such thing as routine when you truly live by faith, just as marriage is never a routine when one truly loves the other.

Living by faith requires continual sacrifice, just as living together requires sacrifice from both sides.

When we live by faith, there is a dependence on the Spirit of God; when we depend on Him, we live by faith. The same is true about marriage. When there’s true love, there is mutual dependence. There is peace and harmony, respect, consideration and loyalty.

Many have used faith as a tool for spiritual comfort at a deathbed; not for their personal gain. They are subject to failure because of a "faith" in the suffering of the cross, in the enduring of trials, in karma, or fate. In ignoring God’s promises, they are driven by such sacrilege without complaining.

A person who has the Spirit of God is revolted against the injustices and evils of this world—never complacent, comforted or resigned.
