FAITH UNLOCKS THE POWER OF GOD'S WORK

Jesus did not work many mighty deeds in his native place because of their lack of faith. (Matthew 13:58)

Faith unlocks the miraculous power of God's Hands. God will never impose His work to be done in you unless you humble yourself before Him and acknowledge your need for Him, completely surrender yourself to His will, and trust that God only wants the best for you.

While it is true that there is nothing impossible with God, His hands are tied when it comes to your freedom of choice. Having faith allows the Lord to intervene in your day to day living.

Lord, through faith in your works, I was brought back to life. A life that is completely dependent upon your word. May your will and purpose always prevail in my life each day. Not my own wants and desires but yours. Let my wishes and dreams be yours. Only you can make all these things come true.

Please forgive me for the times when I seem to question or ignore your power to change anything and everything regardless of time and circumstances. You alone have the power to change me and everything that surrounds me. In faith, I believed that you are my Lord and Savior and you will be with me until the end of time. You will never leave me and will always take care of me no matter what.

In your mighty name I humbly ask, please increase my faith! In times of troubles and uncertainties of life, increase my faith. When the world seem to dictate that I am left alone in the dark, increase my faith. When fear strikes, increase my faith.

Thank you so much for the countless times you have worked mighty deeds in me that made me who I am and what I am today. With much love and faith I pray, in Jesus Name. Amen.


You were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead. (Colossians 2:12)
CANCELED THE BOND

And you, who were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, having canceled the bond which stood against us with its legal demands; this he set aside, nailing it to the cross. (Col 2:13-14)
THE BOND WAS CANCELED

Literally speaking, I have underwritten a bond totaling to 409 Million which is the biggest so far in my professional career. I never expected that this bond will be cancelled but before the bids were opened, my client was disqualified. I completely ignored God's Word believing that it was already a done deal. My prayer was more focused on the succeeding business transactions I can get if my client wins over the bidding. My faith in the Lord came to a test.

I may have been very enthusiastic to hope and pray that the bond transaction I am expecting will push through that will bring me to even greater heights. The Lord had a purpose for cancelling said bond because of its legal demands. After all, it is not this bond that will raise me up but my utmost faith in the workings of God.

Lord, you alone knows what is best for me. Please forgive all my sins, all the wrong things I have done that have displeased you.  As always, I just surrender everything to you who always work for the good of me. With much love and praise I pray, in Jesus Name. Amen.


To God be the honor and glory now and forever!

Prayer

Lord, I live by faith in you.

Nothing can separate me from the love you have for me.

You have given me a blessing of oneness with you, so that in everything I do and work for, you will be honored and glorified.
He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant (Hebrews 9:15).
