YOUR FAITH AMAZES GOD
Whose faith did Jesus see, was it the faith of the paralytic man or his friends? Jesus saw the faith the paralytic man’s Friends! You know there are so many marriages that do not have enough faith to believe their marriage can be saved. There are thousands of young people who are paralyzed because they don’t have enough faith to believe in themselves. Who will believe for those who do not have enough faith?
I remember that before I came to Christ, I did not have enough faith to believe that God could change me. When God changed me from being a resentful, bitter, and materialistic young person to someone who now serves Him and people. Now, I can say that I am a better person.
Look at what the Bible continues to say when Jesus saw the paralytic man, “‘Stand up, pick up your mat, and go home!” And the man jumped up, grabbed his mat, and walked out through the stunned onlookers…” (Mark 2:11-12 NLT).
Your faith not only stuns the spectators who surround you, but also God. Why? Because when you have faith in people and God, then you that causes God to move in compassion to heal those who need a miracle.
The measure of faith that is in you has the power to cause God to move in compassion in someone else’s favor. Your faith amazes God so much that it makes Him perform creative miracles, it makes Him jump up and demonstrate His glory in the now.
Today, let your faith amaze God, let your faith intervene on behalf of someone else who does not have enough faith to see the glory of the Great I am. It doesn’t matter how big or small your faith is, your faith amazed the Lord!
Think about it:
How can you use your faith today?
Who do you know needs help in believing that God can heal them?
