Faith
The ability to follow instructions is very important for success in any examination and test. There are rules and regulations, carefully outlined for a candidate to observe in any examination, written or oral interview and you are expected to comply with.
Many people’s failure and wasted opportunities in life has been traced to lack of necessary information and ignorance or a deliberate attempt to ignore instruction. Intelligence will only succeed when the basic information and instruction for success are carefully taken into consideration. No matter how intense the level of preparation, lack of information and instruction will not earn you the breakthrough you desire in God’s visitation.
In crossing the border of impossibility to possibility in God’s working of miracles, God will always give some instructions, which are necessity for the desired breakthrough. We should not forget that God is omnipotent, omnipresence and omniscience; He sees the beginning from the end. He has never been caught unaware or scared by any situation on the surface of earth.
Being the expert in all fields as far as He is recognised, there is always an instruction to handle any particular problem, depending on the person’s understanding, the environment and the purpose of God in such situation. Similar problems may not require similar instructions it all depend His discretion.
Testimonies are very important tools in uplifting faith of believers, but the means of God to aid such miracle must not be duplicated. What makes such a means or method effective is the power that backs up His word and therefore they should not be copied out as a standard. God will always have different instructions in solving problems, even though similar.
Instructions of faith are actions prone in God’s direction and risk taking at God’s prescription.
They may not agree with popular beliefs and expert’s knowledge, common tradition and custom but once these words flow from God, they have all the power it will take to accomplish all and everything in heaven and on earth must co-operate and comply with them. Where the words of the kings are, there is authority.
God ‘s way of doing things are completely different to the human view of things. Though God works have pattern, but this cannot be mathematically modeled or simulated. The blessing of God can be missed: not all the troubled souls in Christ time, received their miracles, simply because, they were not in places they should be, did not ask, or ask wrongly, or disturbed by the fear of men and women. Disobedience will always aid loss o f chances of creating the wonder of God. Naman would have remained a leper through out his life, if he had disobeyed the man of God. There were record that Jesus “ healed them all and that he performed many of spectaculars but still, so many who should, did not because they were not with him, ask from him and received of him. Many were disqualified from the free miracles because of unbelief, religious prejudice and so cannot receive of him Mt. 13:58
Your obedience to His instruction about your situation is the key to your breakthrough. as you read this work.
So many things will contend the instruction of faith: Your desire, fear, pride and achievement will always contend the instruction of faith. The experienced elders and friend will contend the instruction of faithful the enemies and your loved ones will contend the instruction of faith: their love may give you some alternatives to His instruction. Pleasure will contend the instruction of faith. Human and group’s law may contend the instruction of faith you inexperience will do likewise. You are likely to be sacred by instruction of faith. Your past experience will also contend with the instruction of faith.
Puzzling of doubt
Various questions often run through the mind of doubt wishes and will assess all things but will not once see possibility in the instruction of faith. Doubt will forward the bill of alternatives, should God’s instruction fail while moving into the stage of exploit, you will meet lots of “Ifs” s messenger. “If” is the first born of doubt. Doubt tends to console you in the club side of the multitudes of opinion. Doubt is too weak to climb the mountain of faith. There is no instruction of faith that is senseless, it may be a combination of foolishness but they are the intertwined in the wisdom of God. You may not need to understand Him just obey.
Reality and doubt.
Reality is fact perception and analysis of a situation, based possibly on experience, observation and esparto comments without trying to hide or pay deceit. But Faith inspires of the analysis of fact, crosses the hurdles reality sets, but fear is enslaved by the option of fate.
The ten elder’s observations in the book of numbers were true. They saw giants and indeed they were giants. But their offence was that, they doubted the possibility in God’s words and power to conquer the land and the giants. Joshua and Caleb did not say they were lying, but they had the faith that nothing, not even these glorified giants, could hinder them from attaining their heights and poses their possessions. They had faith but other had fear. There was even possibility in their reports. But doubt won’t make them see this. They went through the land and came back with the fruits of the land,. If this was possible, conquering the land should. in every reason of impossibility given by doubt, there is a seed of possibility in it.
When faith enters into the promise land, fear keeps its victim in the wilderness of depression and disgrace. An Old man Caleb sought for the land of the giant to conquer. David with the skill of mere stones won the battles because he mounted on faith
Description of odds
Odds are vividly abnormal and give sense of horror. The giant, Goliath of gate with the three oppressing G’s was a perfect description of odd that tends to hinder successful advancement. The consideration of his outlook is an intimidating option.
“ And the philistine stood in a mountain on the inside an Israel stood on a mountain on the other side. An there was a valley between them and there named Goliath of gate, whose height was sic cubits and a span (more that 9 ft) and had an helmet brass u [PO his head and he was red on the coat of mail and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass God the shield grieves of brass upon his legs and a target of brass between his shoulders. And the staff of his spree was like weaver beam and his spearhead weighed six hundred shekels of iron and one bearing a shield went before him. Isam17: 3-7 these were his exploit and were well spelt out in his Resume. He had sets of abnormal privileges to intimidate the host of Israel and these he interpreted in his boasting.
The odd situations always seem great and terrible. They forcefully seize your territory, graze your potential and greedily encamp on your entitlement. In the yard of odds, you are surely going to grin, groan and grope in darkness if you allow him to capture you. Odds seem to have too high to scale a hurdle, a thick fence almost an absolute hindrance to your possession. They are impervious men to pass thorough and circumstances that seems impenetrable. All actions and utterances of odds are boastful that are strong enough to put you off faith. Odd situation and circumstances are blasphemous, very rude and tend to disrespect your God, your faith and your hope.
I defy the armies of Israel this day, give me a man that we may fight together when Saul and all Israel heard those words of the philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid’ I Sam. 17: 10-11.
Analyst report
“And Saul said to David thou art not able to go against this philistine to fight with him for thou art but a youth and he a man of war form his youth I Sam 17:33. In every situation, there are always analyst. It seems virtually every body will have something to say in any situation. Most analyst’s reports are based on experience/occurrence, research /observation, position, doubt, procedure and sequence of events, ignorance general philosophy, culture, tradition and. norms and pride
Right from the beginning, in the Garden of Eden, there has always been situation on ground. Most of these reports are contrary to God’s instructions. Serpent’s situation reports and analysis of God’s instructions of faith misled the first man and he sinned and was expelled. There were some men in Noah’s time that had not witness rain, they probably concluded, Noah must be insane. They all perished. Abraham refers to the natural occurrence happenings in his old age, He said “ shall a child be born unto him that is an hindered years old? That question was based on his knowledge and experience. In Elisa days, the man on whose hand king lean was quite knowledgeable and economically sound. He was the chief adviser for the king
then a Lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God and said, behold, if the Lord would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? That was hose analysis report. Might this thing be. Experience is limited, when I instruction of faith is in charge. Guidance is sure experience can fail. The wisdom of the expert and professionals in any field must be respected, but when it crosses the instruction of faith and God’s actions, they cannot hold ground.
The world is filled with analyst reports in various facet of live but the wisdom realized by God’s words is inexhaustible.
The power of God’s word
If we know the power God’s words carry, we need not to attribute fault, if there be any hindrance, the fault will surely be ours. “ God is not a man that he should lie neither the son of man that he should repent hath he said and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken and shall he not make it good num. 23:19
“ my words will not return unto me void” His words will defile the laws of nature, if need be, His words will melt men’s hard hearts, break men’s principle and put any man committed to hindrance to subjection. It is an abomination for his words to returns to him void and declare the task “ impossible s. once they are spoken, they spread abroad to accomplish them. His words cannot be imprisoned, confined, arrested or frustrated. His angels monitor the spoken words and pave ways to the last minute safe delivery.
Just because of this power possessed by God and his word you are better privileged than your problems or any odd situation.
Combine activities of enemy.
It is a revelation. Devil does not have power to hold back the weakest of God’s word. Devil only attempts to trick man out of his miracle. He deceives him from obtaining the long awaited promises. He will possibly import impatience into his heart so quickly to think God is too slow to act or frustrate hopelessness. Just to divert that man from the course of God’s promises. He could fill a man with enough knowledge of odds than faith of possibility. He could bring some faithful careless and faithless talkative to load a man with messages of doubt, once devil can deviate a man from the course of God’s promises.
You need Gods kind of faith.
You will need God’s kind of faith to carry out the instruction of faith. God’s kind of faith is ultimately needed for any type of miracle and break through that your life needs. God’s want the type of Abraham’s faith and not Thomas kind of faith. so said David ingles.
You’ll never get Abraham blessing,
With the Thomas kind of faith.
The mountain will just stand there,
In the same old place.
If you have to see it first,
Hear it, or touch it or taste;
You’ll never get Abraham blessing,
With the Thomas kind of faith.
The type of faith that can easily move God into action is His type of faith. The faith inspite of nothing, believe something. The faith at the level of creation, redemption and resurrection are ultimately God’s kind of faith. This God’s kind of faith have the ability to create any thing so far its necessary and has the power to deliver from any form captivity. You need to receive the word with the same faith, with which He spoke them. You need God’s kind of faith, to have God’s kind of result.
