Faith that Rewards!

Hebrews 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." (NIV)

There is faith that rewards and you can receive ALL that God has in store for you.

There are some keys here in this scripture that will open heaven's door of blessings for you today.

1) You must have faith in God - Faith is acting on the word of God, be it logos (written word) or rhema (voice of the Spirit) that is revealed to you. It is trusting God and Knowing that He is that He is.

There has to be a revelation on the inside of you that comes from walking with God and seeing him at work in your life. This walk produces faith or trust or confidence in knowing that God will come through because you have seen him deliver in the past.

2) You must be determined to seek God - Your faith must be the kind of Faith that is built on a relationship with your God that no matter what may come your way, you are determined to hold on to him and allow him to bring you into true and lasting success.

There is a faith that God loves. It is when you begin to push the envelope and say to yourself that there has to be more in life God has for me and I will seek him for it. God loves those who are not contend with a mediocre life but those who desire a richer, fuller, and joyous life.

3) You must believe that God has something GOOD FOR YOU when you show up - Your faith will do wonders when you believe that when you show up God has a blessing in store for you. He longs to bless you every chance he gets because he is a loving father who loves to bless his children.

Child of God. Your God wants to Reward You just for Showing up!

Can you believe that!

I know you thought that you had to go out and save the world for YOUR GOD to bless you. I know you thought that you had to have all of your T's crossed and I's dotted for him to Shower YOU with blessings.

You are special to God and he longs to bless you and reward you for coming to him. You are the reason that earth spins today. You are the reason the Sun shines today. You are the reason the rain falls today. You are the reason that He sent his son to die for your sins. He is that in love with you to the point that your life was equal to the death of his Son Jesus. (John 3:16)

So come to the Father today! He wants you to come up Higher!

This is your higher calling!

Ask according to your desires!

John 15:7 : If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you."

To abide simply means to dwell. This scripture clearly reveals four awesome truths that when we as believers begin to activate them we will receive the full benefit of the Word.

1) "Abide in me" - These three words clearly shows Jesus as the Source, Foundation and Beginning of an important fact and that is to dwell or to habitat. When we begin to look to Jesus as our dwelling place we are placing our dependence on him and not on our own ways, thoughts, or experience.

2) "My words abide in you" - Reveals the truth of letting the words of Jesus dwell in our hearts, lives, actions, attitudes and ways. His word is alive, quick, powerful, and lifechanging. (Hebrews 4:12) It is through his word we are heal, delivered, and set free. (Psalm 107:20) Our living depends on his word. (Matthew 3:4)

3) "Ask what you will" - Jesus is instructing us to ask according to our desires or will. Our desires for something is important. As Christians we tend to look past the fact that God doesnot want us to ask according to our desire. We think that we should only ask for things that pertain to spirituality and neglect our desires that pertain to life and this world. You want a new car? Ask for it. You want to start your business? Ask for it. You want to get out of debt? Ask for it.

4) "It shall be done unto you" - For all of you spiritual giants and theologians out there. This needs no interpretation or greek or hebrew. Jesus is telling us that when we follow the three prerequisites that IT or the thing that we ask for, shall be done for us.

Let's put everything in perspective.

When we dwell IN JESUS as our Source and Foundation and allow His lifechanging, powerful WORDS to become apart of our daily lives, then we are instructed, even commanded to ASK according to OUR DESIRES and know that IT (the thing that we ask) shall be done for us.

Shocking isn't it!

Be empowered today!

This is your higher calling! Live Higher!
