TOPIC: EXPLOITS THROUGH FAITH
TEXT:
1Kings 17:8-16
Key verse: “And Peter answered Him and said, Lord, if it be Thou, bid me come unto
Thee on the water. And He said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of
the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus”. Matthew 14:28, 29
With unwavering faith in God,
every believer can do exploits in life and ministry. We shall consider some
exploits by Elijah and Peter. The just shall be supernaturally sustained by
faith. Elijah and the widow of Zarephath were sustained by the little flour and
the oil of the widow throughout the famine period. Elijah said to that woman, This is what the Lord is saying, the oil
and the flour shall not finish until the time that God sends rain back on the
earth. The woman believed God and
she saw the miracle of God. Joshua told the sun to stand still and the sun
stood still. The word of the just carries enough power that can reverse the
course of nature. By the word of Elijah, the earth withdrew its rain for a
period of three-and-a-half years and by the same word, the rain returned back
to the earth again. What a power that God has bestowed upon the mortal man and
woman of faith!
When the word of God comes to you
that you will finish your school, nothing can stop you from finishing your
school. Those who have the revelation of
the word of God are always lifted to a higher realm. Peter and the other disciples of Jesus were
in the boat on the sea. They saw Jesus
walking on the water. Peter already knew
the power in the word of God. He knew that if the word of God was released, it
carried with it a complete package of power to accomplish the will of God. Peter, having known the power behind the word
said, Lord, if you are the one, invite
me to come. Peter knew he would not survive if he jumped into the river on
his own, so he waited for a word from the Lord.
Jesus spoke just a word, “Come.”
That one word carried all the power of the Godhead. That word carried all
miracle power. That one word turned the water into a solid ground for Peter to
walk upon. The just will truly do the
miraculous by faith.
Thought
for the day: Faith can move mountain of problems.
Song for the day: With
the comprehensive faith in the blood of Jesus, We can move mountain..
