TOPIC : THE FORCE OF FAITH
TEXT : HEBREWS 11 : 24- 26
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
The force of faith is a force of rejection.
It takes the force of faith to refuse the offerings of sin and decadence where it has become endemic.
Degraded systems and behaviours become a way of life and everyone is expected to comply.
They often justify themselves with the cliche "if you can't win them, join them".
Moses demonstrated great faith by rejecting
The benefits of a godless system.
He was able to refuse and reject the system because the force in faith has a futuristic eye.
This eye of faith saw a greater tomorrow.
It saw a tomorrow that compelled him to reject the present evil.
Helping him to chose the harder right instead of the easier wrong.
It took faith for Jesus to endure the Cross.
He saw the crown and it's long term benefits.
Our generation is a very fast moving generation.
Highly kinetic but remember fast food is not usually the most nutritious.
Today, receive the power to reject sin and all its appearances in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
