Walk by Faith

Scriptural references:
For truly I say to you, That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be you removed, and be you cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he said shall come to pass; he shall have whatever he said - Mark 11:23
Ho, every one that thirsts, come you to the waters, and he that has no money; come you, buy, and eat; yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price – Isaiah 55:1
(Other refs: Mark 5:34, 10:52, 11:23-24; 1 John 5:4; Luke 17:19, 8:48; Hebrew 11:16; Romans 1:17,4:17; James 1:6-7)
Sermon:
Faith is an attribute of GOD. From Genesis 1, we understand GOD created the heavens and the earth by his word. He did it by faith. When He said – “let there be light” (Genesis 1:3). He spoke it by faith and light came into existence. Romans 4: 17 tells us that GOD calls those things that be not, as though they were. As a Christian you ought to walk by faith and not by sight. For Faith is your profession as a believer. You are called to live by faith. Romans 1: 17 says – “the just shall live by faith”. Who has seen GOD at any time? You have not seen him, yet you believe in him. That is faith. We serve an invisible immortal GOD who cannot be seen by the normal eyes. Now you will agree with me that it will take faith for you to believe in someone you have never seen. In the same way it will take faith for someone who doesn’t believe in GOD before, to start walking by faith. Oral Roberts said, when you see the invisible, then you can do the impossible. Now, that requires faith. Faith is one of the nine gifts of the Spirit and it is also one of the nine elements of the fruit of the Spirit. That tells you how important faith is. Without faith, it is impossible to please GOD (Heb. 11:16). Without faith, you can’t pray to GOD and can’t receive anything from him (James 1:6-7).
Beloved, are you ready to hear the truth of the matter? Are you ready? If you are, this is it – Do you know that GOD has made it possible for you to receive all you need by faith? Yes and it is in the word. Go to Mark 11:24 and meditate on it. May the LORD open your eyes in Jesus name.
Now hear this - In the Kingdom of GOD, faith is the currency in operation. It is with faith that you can buy the things you need. Isaiah 55: 1 says – “… come buy wine and milk without money and without price”. There is no need for any physical cash. All you need is faith. During the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ, he often told people who had faith, “be it unto you according to your faith” (Luke 17:19, Luke 8:48). Then in Mark 5:34 and Mark 10:52, He spoke to two different people telling them, “Your faith has made you whole”. In Mark 11:23 He taught people that they can move mountains if they can operate by faith. This is because faith connects you to our supernatural GOD. When you see the Almighty invisible GOD in action, then you can do the impossible or have the impossible done.
Beloved, I challenge you to walk by faith and continue to walk by faith. It pays. Ever since I got saved in the 80’s, I have been operating by faith and I have seen GOD move powerfully. Sickness can be healed by faith, needs can be met by faith, battles can be won by faith and miracles can be done and received by faith.
As you demonstrate your faith in GOD, I see you receiving your miracle in Jesus name. Someone’s faith has been built up by this revelation. I see you breaking forth and busting loose. Victory and dominion are yours (1 John 5:4). I decree and I declare - It’s a new day for you. Hold on and hold out, your breakthrough is coming. If you believe, give the LORD a shout of Hallelujah. He is worthy to be praised.
Prayer: Father GOD, I ask that you give me your GOD kind of faith and grant me my heart's desire as I walk by faith. I pray with thanksgiving in Jesus name.
