"But without faith it is impossible to please him, for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him (Heb. 11:6 KJV)
Step #1
Surround Yourself With Faith Producers-
We must realize that if we are going to nurture our faith, if we are going to build it into something that will produce results, we must surround ourselves with successful people of God, not negative people. And we must feed our minds and spirits on material that will build faith, not destroy it.
Step #2
Build On God's Word - Not On Experience-
Do you want to be spiritual? Do you want to get in on the move of God? Then build on God's Word. Notice Jesus didn't build on experience, he taught the Word. When he withstood Satan's temptations, He kept saying, It is written, it is written, it is written.
Step #3
Look to God's Word- Not Someone’s Personality-
The Bible says, He sent his word, and he healed them and delivered them from their destructions (Ps. 107:20) To have strong faith to receive from God, build your faith on the Word, not someone's personality. God didn't send a personality, He sent His Word. Forget about personalities.
Step #4
Obedience Is Necessary-
Just knowing what the word of God says is or enough to defeat the enemy. We must obey - knowing what God says to do and then doing it. 1 John 3:22 says, we will receive from him whatever we ask because we obey him. And John 15:7 says "If you abide in Me (Jesus), and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you."
Step #5
You Must Have Humility-
A lot of people are proud of their humility! The disciples had this same attitude in Mark Chapter 9, they got prideful and puffed up. But when a child was brought to them, they couldn't cast the tough, stubborn, unclean spirit out of him (v 18). Jesus explained to the disciples that this kind comes out of only by prayer and fasting. They lacked humility and discipline. This hindered their faith.
You Must Have Holy Boldness-
This is something most people really need. Most people are afraid of the devil. They would rather hide from him and stand against him. You're going to have to be willing to stand, look the devil square in the eye, and say, "You fooled me for the last time!" Either you get out of the way, or get run over! He (Satan) doesn't want any part of an individual who knows who he is in Jesus Christ, because Jesus defeated Satan. He knows that an informed Christian is going to start speaking God's Word. And every time those words come out of that Christians mouth, it's like someone hitting the devil with a whip.
Sow the seed of faith into your heart and watch God's promises manifest in your life!
HABD!!! UAK
