Understanding the Subject of Faith

DAY 3 OF 30

DEVELOP YOUR FAITH

God has called every believer to live by their faith. Even if you are a minister of the gospel, you are supposed to live by your faith, not by the anointing. Every time Jesus had a personal need, He used His faith. He used the anointing to solve the needs of people but He used his faith to deal with His personal needs. At a time, He was hungry and He saw a fig tree from a distance hoping to find fig fruit on it but He found nothing. The Bible says, “for the time of figs was not yet”, but what Jesus did next was shocking.

The fig tree did not have fruits because it was not supposed to have so why would He curse it? The Master is teaching us something from this verse. Understand that everything that Jesus did was for a specific reason. He cursed the fig tree because He was about to show his disciples the key to solving their personal needs.

There are times you live generally by faith but there are times that you must know how to use your faith to deal with issues that show up. Nobody wakes up in the morning and desires trouble or sickness. Nobody is looking for that, but when anything comes up, you must know what works. It is not when trouble comes that you will try to test if something works. It must be what you know works. I want to encourage you to Master what is in Mark 11, you will learn how to use your faith in a practical sense to deal with specific problems.

Prayer: I am a storm rider, I am a mountain climber, I am a line crosser! My life will be a sign and a testimony that the Lord is good in Jesus name. Amen!
