In the past two weeks my faith has been tested on so many levels. Sometimes life come and hits you right in the gut and then moves up to your heart. It’s at that very moment when everything you say you believe out of your mouth becomes a reality or you can chose to let fear paralyze you.
I’m so thankful to know such mighty women prayer warriors who will shut everything down to go to war with and for me. Listening to their prayers, the way they command and take authority over a thing has taken my faith to new levels. The most profound statement I’ve heard during this time is." God is not moved by our tears but by our faith." Amen church!
If your faith is never tested you won’t ever know if what you’ve based your belief system on is true. If you don’t step into the water you will never know if the Red Sea will be parted. If you don’t cast your net into the water you will never know if there is treasure to be caught up in your net. We know that faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. And the word says, “ that without faith it is impossible to please God.”
Faith is not asking for what God has already promised. Faith believes in the promises of God. Only little faith hides when it is tested. Big faith stands against the testing. Each time a trail of faith comes our way, we should understand that it is not we who are being proven but the Lord. Only after your faith has been tested and proven will you be able to help and benefit others. In the process, God’s heart will be satisfied, and His name will be glorified.
The real test of faith is found among those who believe God long before the victory is manifested. Tonight, I rest in complete victory.
