What Do You Believe?

John 14:1

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.”

WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE?

More than ever before, there’s been intense distress of nations, with many people living in intense fear. Even among Christians, we’ve seen church leaders go as far as erecting “Closed” or “Shut Down” signs on their church doors, indicating they’re no longer fellowshipping physically, all because of fear. Such actions are inconsistent with the ministry of Jesus Christ in whom we’ve believed! How can a Christian who the Word says is the salt of the earth, the light of the world, one who’s anointed with the Holy Ghost, and a God-carrying vessel—be afraid?

Jesus emphasised the signs with which to identify those who really believe in Him, part of which we read in our opening scripture. No one who truly believes in Jesus will be afraid of any sickness or infectious disease. He said in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Your reaction to the goings-on in today’s world shows whether or not you truly believe in Jesus. It’s the pressures of life that reveal your convictions.

If a Christian is “afraid” of sickness or disease, for example, then in which God did he or she believe? Certainly not the same God that Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, the Prophets and the Apostles knew and talked about. Take the Word of God seriously; study it; believe it, and live it.

Declaration

I’ve been sent forth to be the solution to the problems of the world, and I’m fulfilling my ministry. I’m a partaker of the divine nature. I’m conscious that I have power over sickness, disease and infirmities; to heal them and live above them. This is my reality. Hallelujah!
