We continue tonight with the last two necessities for our Faith to function without restraints or faults. Listen and be blessed

There are four necessary things a believer needs to know (and have) for his Faith to work effectively. In this episode we deal with the first, most basic two.. listen and be blessed.

Marriage is not a thing to take lightly. God places value on it, to the extent that He equates His relationship with the Church to a marriage; the church is the bride as He is the bridegroom. This should give you an idea the level of importance placed by God on it. Listen and be blessed.

Spite is a killer. It kills God’s Favor, Mercy and Forgiveness. It’s not a quality to nurture as a Believer because it goes contrary to God’s Expectation of us. His ultimate requirement- to love. Spite, hatred, anger towards another may be justifiable but it doesn’t make it right. It’s like an offensive aroma to God. Listen and be blessed.

Faith requires not just confidence in God, but an Expectation as well. Expectation fuels your Faith. There’s no Faith user that used Faith without having a specific expectation. Starting from God, to Abraham, till you. Faith won’t work if you don’t have a clear expectation. The expectation is what keeps you in check. Listen and be blessed.

Life is in stages. Same thing with Christian living. You don’t get it right immediately. Trials will come. How you choose to handle it matters. Just like a video game you have to go through the process, you can’t skip it if you want to meet your objectives. God didn’t invent the trials or put you through it, but He has given you every tool you need to overcome it. It just depends on your willingness to do the work. So do the work. Don’t chicken out.

We hear it often; “Jesus paid the price for us”, but do we ever stop to think that there was A PRICE to pay? There was a price for you. Jesus paid and set you free. If you accept this payment, you are free. If you don’t, well.... you still got to pay. You’ll have to pay for everything in this life. Listen and be blessed.

Between you and God, it’s personal. Now and forever. It’s always going to be just the two of you. No one else. He can use others to minister to you but they have nothing to do with you and Him. No matter what your history is with others, it’s you and God. Listen and be blessed.

Giving your life to God is more than just being saved. You get a High Priest; a Permanent Intercessor. You get a New Citizenship in a New and Eternal Kingdom and a new set of Rules. It’s not the lifestyle you’ve experienced here before. It’s not a contract to be taken lightly. But you don’t need to be afraid. Listen and be blessed.

This episode we speak of the unforgettable nature of Love. God always remembers an Act of Love. Apart from it’s rewards, Agape matures us; not just spiritually but physically, emotionally and financially. The growth is pure because it starts from within and spreads outwards. As for the last, listen and be blessed.
