Serve yourself of your "measure of faith"

"Let each one judge himself as he is, according to the measure of faith which God has given him in sharing." Romans 12.3

The amount of faith God has given you depends on the task he has assigned to you. So, in trial, tell yourself that God has given you the faith necessary to succeed.

Certain obstacles in your life will only be overcome with the help of faith.

Nothing is more important than your faith. Jesus said to Peter, "Satan has asked you to sift you as wheat, but I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail" (Luke 22: 31-32).

Faith is more valuable than money, success or reputation. You could take everything away, but with faith you would bounce back. Faith is like a direct line to God.

When the prayer of faith rises, the power of the Lord flows in abundance. You are then ready for the event. Failure is never final as long as faith subsists.

It is for this reason that Satan will do everything to keep you away from the daily reading of the Scriptures. "Faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes from the word of Christ" (Romans 10:17).

Jesus said : "If you have faith like a grain of mustard, you will say to this mountain : "Carry yourself by then, and it will be transported" (Matthew 17:20). Certain obstacles in your life will only be overcome with the help of faith. No need to have a container, only one seed is enough. Think of that tiny grain that has the strength to grow beyond the pitfalls to become a majestic tree. He makes his way into the earth around the rocks, braves storms, resists animals and other dangers.

Action for Today

It is not so much the size of your faith that determines your success, but its quality. So today, use your "measure of faith".
