FOOD FOR TEENS: Organs of Faith part 2

-


Continued from last month’s edition…

3. The Eyes of Faith: Just like the ears, the eye is an input organ through which the word of God is digested into our Spirit called meditation. Just like the ears, we also have the physical or optical eyes and the eyes of the spirit. 2nd Corinthians 5:7, “(For we walk by faith, not by sight).” In this passage it talked about two types of sight, the one which is optical has no role to play in walking in faith. In fact, it is counterproductive and contrary to faith but the inner eyes which is the eyes of the spirit in one of the most powerful organs of faith in that it takes the word of God, either written or spoken and creates a mental picture of that which God already produced in the spirit; James 1:25, “But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.” The eyes of faith are so important that scripture tells us that if we keep looking at God’s word continually we will become doers. What you continually look at impart your spirit greatly and is manifested in the realms of the physical. God’s word comes into our spirit through our spiritual ears and eyes.

4. The Mouth of faith: The mouth is so important in our faith walk in that the mouth is the only organ of faith that brings to phyical that which has been deposited in the spirit. The true reflection of man’s spirit are the words that he speaks. No wonder Jesus Christ told us in Luke6:43-45, “For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of bramble bush gather they grapes. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil. For of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.” The blessings of God ehich has been deposited in a man can be realeased into the natural atmosphere through declaration. The mouth can act and function as an input and output organ of faith. To continually hear and see God’s word, you must continually proclaim it until it enters your spirit.

Every word of God in your spirit must be released through declaration 2nd Corinthians 4:13, “We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, therefore have i spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak.” One of the strongest indicators of your faith is what you speak. It is the mouth of faith that calleth those things which be not as though they were.

In summary the ear and the eyes of the spirit are the medium of getting God’s word into our spirit where Christ dwells, it is in the spirit that God reveals His mind to us, 1st Corinthians 2:11-12, that with our spiritual ears and eyes, we are able to assimilate the word of God, then with our mouth we are able to proclaim God’s word. 1st Corinthians 2:13. When the heart is in faith, it does not waver, it is in constant peace because he knows that he has received and He is faithful. Hallelujah. These are the organs with which we walk by faith, train and exercise your senses and watch your life of faith increase from one level of glory to another.

May God bless you, see you next month.

I'TS NOT WORTH IT : STOP RESISTING GOD IN YOUR LIFE

Dearly beloved, I welcome you all to this awesome month of June. May all that the Lord has for you this month be made manifest in your life in Jesus name, Amen. This month, I will be admonishing you on what I titled, ‘Stop resisting God in your life.’ The Bible says in the book of Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” The New International Version of the same book of Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you, declared the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” It is important to note by this scripture that God has great things in store for you, not just for your present but also for your future. What a wonderful Father. You facing difficult situations today can take comfort in Jeremiah 29:11 knowing that it is not a promise to immediately rescue you from hardship or suffering, but rather a promise that God has a

FOOD FOR TEENS :THE INTENTIONALITY OF GOD

What God has in store for us far exceeds what we can achieve on our own, it goes beyond our wildest imagination, those desires in us to achieve great things are product of the great things God has placed inside us but because we have not sort Him, we try to achieve these things based on what we see in the natural. We try to make sense of those things our spirit yearns for, we try to give them expression but we fail to go to Him that has put these things within us. You see people trying to achieve success in their careers, homes, businesses, academics, etc. thinking they will find true fulfillment. They dream of owning big companies, hoping to find fulfillment because they think that is the best way to get true fulfillment but every time a target is met a new one is created, yet the fulfillment they seek seems to elude them. All of creation seeks this fulfillment the creator has created and placed within them. Romans 8:19 says, “For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for t

IT'S NOT WORTH IT: STOP LOOKING BACK

Hello my beloved saints, I welcome you to the month of December in the name of Jesus. May the Lord who has brought you this far take you farther and cause you to see and experience His glory in this new month in Jesus name. I will be sharing with you on what I titled “Stop Looking Back.” The Bible made us to understand that as Christians we are in a race, 1st Corinthians 9:24, "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain" . We are in a race and we must end up well, one thing we must do and consistently do is to stop looking back at our past, at our old lifestyle. No Christian can ever come to his or her place of victory in the Kingdom who consistently stays in his or her past. His or her past pleasures, failures, defeat, pain, lust, unforgiveness etc. It is one trap of Satan to keep a believer from making tangible progress. There is a profound statement made by our Lord Jesus which we must take to heart because
