SCRIPTURAL TEXT:
For whatsoever is not of faith is sin
Rom 14:23b
One of the most important ingredients we need for a successful year is faith. How much faith do you presently possess? Faith goes full-length with God. Many are satisfied with little blessings they
have experienced that they do not press for more of what God has for them. This is an error!
There are two attitudes that hold back people from being blessed; we would refer to them as Mental and Motion. Motion is when spiritual things (like prayer, giving etc) are done without mechanically, without faith or the heart. Faith means you’re acting based on the word of God. Mental means you do things purely on calculation. No space for the Spirit or the voice of God. This is commonly seen in the area of giving where it is based on the state of your account or personal projects and not what God is saying.
Do you pray, give, win souls based on your own calculation? If it cannot be tied to the Word, then it is not faith. Also, as long as you are void of what the Word says about what you are doing, you are acting mechanically and you’re into motion. Without Word memory there cannot be faith action. So, get back to what the word says… that’s what guarantees the blessings! Glory to God!
