We've Come This Far By Faith

Good afternoon and Wonderful Wednesday. As we enter the a new month there are still some things that seem to want to bring our spirits down. For some there is the upcoming school year and the uncertainty of what happens after graduation. There are others who might be looking at their jobs beginning to downsize and/or relocate. And there are others who face the things such as eviction or foreclosure. But let me remind you that God will be there in the times we know as being tough. He wants me to remind all that We've  Come This Far By Faith.

It seems we all get caught up in what is not being done and forget about what has been done. Some of us have come from drug and alcohol addiction. There are others who were on the verge of having

lost their children to gangs God stepped in. And there are some who received a job offer and/or promotion without even applying for it. That is what God does for those who know and love him. We've Come This Far By Faith.

As we come into the Word of God for this teaching of We've Come This Far By Faith I go to Luke 7:47-450. In these verses Jesus is in the house of devout Pharisee having dinner when a woman came

and started crying enough tears that she was able to clean his feet. Now the women did not even ask anything of Jesus but had enough faith to come in and he in turned forgave of her all her sins. For those seniors that are going to be graduating and getting nervous place your faith in Jesus as You Have Come This Far By Faith.

As we continue with this teaching of We've Come This Far By Faith I go to the Word of God and Acts 3:11-16. In these verses Peter and John explains to the non believers that if you just place faith

in the power of the name of Jesus anything is possible. There are some of you who may be on the verge of job loss but we have to have the faith that the name of Jesus will fix things. We've Come This Far By Faith.

As we come to the conclusion of this teaching of We've Come This Far By Faith I go to Galatians 2:11-16. In these verses Paul speaks of how Peter and Barnabas changed when they got around

leadership and forgot that man can not justify any of your works but only your faith in Jesus can justify you. So while you think that this eviction or foreclosure will surely be the end of you, place your faith and Jesus and watch how he works it out. We've Come This Far By Faith.

In conclusion I am asking you to continue to place your faith in God. In Hebrews the 11th chapter we see that many people in the Word of God depended on faith without EVER receiving the ultimate promises of God. You have to see how far you have come. From being poor. From being a emotional wreck. From being lonely. From your ideas not even being considered. From being the laughingstock. If you look back at a lot of things you will see that We've Come This Far By Faith. Please remember that. And when you have a chance please visit a Sunday School of your choice or come to Valley Kingdom Ministries International Rhema Word 2.0 program before or after services. Have a great week all. I give God all the glory and honor for this teaching. Have a great week all.
