Increasing Faith

This was sent to me by a friend and I felt that you might enjoy reading it as well. Keep up your faith!! Increasing Faith John Ogden, Sr. So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. (Romans 10:17) Much is said about having faith. Many sermons have been preached on faith and as a young man I would leave church and wonder, “How can I have more faith?” I’d hear well meaning people say, “Just leave it at the altar.” At one point in my life, when I was going through a very desperate situation, Ms. Becky (my wife) said, “Just leave it in God’s hands.” I was trying to! Everything within me wanted to take this situation and put it in God’s hands and go skipping down the highway of life. But, it seemed much easier to say it than to do it. Have you ever been there or maybe you are there now. As I began to pray and seek God’s face I discovered Romans 10:17. As I read it and reread it and meditated upon it, I began to see that there are times when we need to hear the Word of God over and over and over again. I began to see how that God’s Word could be planted into my spirit as a seed to be nurtured to bring forth a harvest. What I am going to share with you has worked in my life time and time again. As I face any issue of life, I go to God’s Word to see what He says. I then write the scripture down and put it in my pocket. Throughout the day, I read the scripture over and over and over. I cannot explain what takes place, but I find myself going from a place of doubt to a place of bold faith in God. Romans 10:17 says that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. I realize it is good to meditate on God’s Word, but this scripture deals with hearing bringing faith. As I would take a particular scripture, I would read it out loud and then my faith would grow. I challenge you to take God’s Word and read it out loud over the next few days. I believe that your faith will grow bringing victory in your life. Everything that we receive from God comes by the way of faith. May your faith grow according to God’s Word! Also posted on iWIM. Check this and other postings out on iWIM.
