Matthew 9:29 “Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.”


Did you know that you are utilizing faith everyday?  You believe for something every day of your life, yet faith is so fleeting.  What we believe is what we become.

True faith finds its roots in the word of God.  It is here that we find the ability and strength to continue on the road called life.  Faith inverted, or outside the word of God, is belief for the things of life which results in a negative action and reaction.  

Some would count faith as a financial gain or luck; that if we have enough faith we can become wealthy.  We count faith as a number of ‘positives’ in our lives.  Real faith is the unwavering belief that what God said He will do…nothing more and nothing less.  Our very eternal state depends on our faith.  Do we really believe Jesus is Who He said He is?  Do we really stake our eternity on John 3:16?

If our answer is yes, then our actions and lifestyle of today should eagerly reflect that as fact!

The above scripture notes that Jesus touched their eyes.  I pray that our eyes will be touched by the Master; opening them to His wonderful revelation and truth.  And that we will live as one ready to meet the creator of the Universe…and love others along the way fully displaying the goodness of the Lord in and through our life.  Right now there are many in your life desiring to know the Lord.  Are we allowing the personality of Jesus to shine through to them as a beacon of hope and confirmation?

If we will put our faith/trust in the Son of God, He will save us from Hell.  We will live with Him forever and ever in Heaven.  A prepared place for a prepared people!  Jesus said in John 14:1-3 “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.”

During this time of economic uncertainty and worldly woes, let your hearts be steadfast in the knowing that Jesus loves you and has prepared a place just for you!  It is wonderful and it is just for you!  Today walk strong, place a smile on your face and trust God!  He said He would take care of you and He is!
