It takes just three elements to ignite faith in our lives. Reading God’s word, prayer and fellowship with other Christians. Romans 10:17 reveals the key to igniting faith: ‘Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.’ (NIV)
Through prayer, we communicate with God, expressing our desires and needs and trusting Him. Praying with unwavering faith and expectation opens the door for God to work mightily in our lives.
Lastly, surrounding ourselves with a community of believers can also help ignite and strengthen our faith. Sharing testimonies, and receiving encouragement uplifts our spirit and reinforces our faith. By engaging with God's Word, praying with unwavering faith, and nurturing fellowship with other believers, we can ignite and nurture a vibrant faith that transforms our lives and enables us to live boldly for Christ. Let your desire for faith arise even from today.
Quote Faith will always grow when you combine God’s word, prayer and testimony-based fellowship.
Prayer
Lord, I desire to go deeper in my pursuit of faith, guide me I pray. Amen.
