Live By Faith

...for we live by faith, not by sight.
 - 2 Corinthians 5:7

Sometimes, as a believer looking around you, you don't really like where you are. You have study God words well enough and yet, the reality seems to be delaying, all what you see physically is the opposite of what you have been praying and reading about. 

Truth be told, physically speaking, when we look at our lives and where we are, we would grow weary and feel like giving up. But we don't live by what we see. What you see is not the future but the present. Your sight will only see the present state. We walk and live by faith. Faith shows you what the sight won't show you. Faith is the evidence of things not seen. Faith shows you the future.

Even when the present is not too okay, faith shows you it will be okay because the Word of God says so. Our physical eyes can't not comprehend the promises of God for our lives. Faith is what we need to access that realm. 

Your sight sees the things that are bad now, your faith sees the bad things that became alright.

To walk by faith, is to live in the confident expectation of things that are to come; in the belief of the existence of unseen realities; and suffering them to influence us as if they were seen. The people of this world are influenced by the things that are seen. Sight is the reason why unbelievers can't comprehend what it means to make heaven. Sight is the reason why unbelievers can't fathom the joy that you feel when going to church. Faith is greater than sight. Sight limit you to the box of the Now. 

A Christian is to walk and live by faith. We go to church on Sundays to serve a God we haven't seen physically, why? It's because we have faith in Him and by that Faith we worship Him and He has made Himself know  to us through faith. A man that doesn't live by faith will live a sad life. 

It's a happy Sunday Morning. Good Morning and stay blessed! 😊

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

Song: These Walls

You are good and do good;....  - Psalm 119:68  Few months back, I came across an inspiring song by Jason David who happens to be a pastor.  He was diagnosed with cancer. After a year-long fight with cancer that claimed much of his tongue, Pastor Jason David refuses to stop singing. "These Walls" is an original worship song he wrote that became his anthem as he fought through several surgeries, chemotherapy & radiation. For someone going through challenges; financial, health, marital, academic, whatever it may be, I pray this song will bless you - no matter what walls or mountains you may face, God is greater & God is good!  Below are the lyrics of the song: Verse: You are greater than these walls I'm circling  You are stronger than these army  I see You are bigger than these mountains that I faced And I will choose only to praise You.
