Pastor Lanre Onasanya bringing us God’s word tonight.

Topic: The Basic Principles of Faith

Why is faith important?
Habakkuk 2:4
The just shall live by faith . Faith is the way of life for the just.

Hebrew 10: 35 -38

God expects us to live by faith. It is the way we can please God. God is trilled when we work by faith.

Mark 11:24

Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

When you pray, believe that you have received it and you shall receive.

Mark 9:23, mark 11:23

Faith is how we make the impossible, possible. It is how we move mountains.

Faith is how we walk. We walk by faith not by sight.

Faith is evidence.

The evidence of faith is God’s Word to you.

When you confront any challenge, faith (God’s word) is your evidence to overcome

Faith comes by hearing, be careful what you hear.

God is no respecter of person, but a respecter of faith.

How does faith work?

Romans 10:17
Faith comes by hearing. In other words, faith is the Word of God.

1 John 5:4

Faith is the victory the overcomes the world.
If you want to enjoy victory, get The Word.

How does faith grow?

Luke 17:5-6
Faith increases by use. You must exercise your faith for it to grow.

Faith must be in two places;
1. Your heart
2. Your mouth

You must fill your heart and your mouth with faith .
You must speak The word and believe it to activate the power of faith.
Romans 10:9-10, 2 Corinthian 4:13

Mark 11:23

Speak faith, not what you see. Speak what God said to that situation in Your life.

Don’t say what you see, say what you want.

The power of faith in Your heart and your mouth is effective.

The Word first changes you before it changes your situation.

Romans 4:17
Faith calls the things that be not as though they were.

Call forth! Speak! and see things happen for you.
