Following Christ English

“All things are possible to him who believes.” Mark 9:23    One day a distraught father came to Jesus and said, “My son…frequently…falls into the fire and…the water…I brought him to Your disciples, and they were not able to cure him” (Matthew 17:15-16). Notice, he never once said, “Maybe my son inherited this problem from me” or “Perhaps if I had raised him differently.” No, he dumped the responsibility onto the disciples, who were themselves in training. Whenever we’re in trouble, we like to blame the pastor, the church, our mate, our boss, our family, our looks, our social status, or find some other excuse. We’re unable or unwilling to admit that we stuck our own hand in the fire or almost drowned by jumping in headfirst when we couldn’t swim. After Jesus healed the boy, His disciples asked Him, “Why can’t we do the things you do?” (See Matthew 17:19).

Thankfully, God honors even the tiniest amount of faith. And the more we exercise the faith we do have, the more it grows! Sometimes God allows us to go through trials and tribulations to strengthen our faith in Him. You can also increase your faith by st

You read this verse and understand what God is telling you and what God wants from you The major point that I hope you will take away from this post is that saving faith is a gift of God, (Eph. 2:8) . Such faith is not something man produces within himself, (Jn. 1:11-13) . As sobering as it is to recognize, it is important to understand that if God does not grant this undeserved gift to a sinner, their heart remains unchanged, unbelieving, and unredeemed, (Heb. 11:6). If God does not mercifully, powerfully, and irresistibly intervene in our suicidal rebellion against him, we freely and willfully continue plodding our path to perdition, (I Cor. 1:18).
