Guarantee of Faith
Do you want your life to be free of trouble and problems? If you do, then you might be disappointed, because Jesus says this:
John 16:33 (NIV) - “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
This is Jesus, who was present at the time of creation. According to John 1:3, this world was created through him. He knows the world better than anyone else. This same Jesus says that, in this world, you WILL have trouble.
Trouble is a guarantee. But faith is also a guarantee!
Matthew 21:22 (NLT) - "You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it.”
You have two things that are guaranteed to happen in this world: trouble and faith. Which one will you choose to focus on? Whichever you choose will work harder in your life. Focus on faith.
Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for the guarantee of faith. I won't be shaken by the trouble that I see. Rather, by faith, I will stand firm. I pray this in your name, Jesus, amen.

As Christians, we are called to be enthusiastic, passionate, and zealous about spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 14:12). Faith is a spiritual gift! Join this Bible reading plan, and start this exciting journey of pursuing this powerful gift called faith.
