THE
POWER OF FAITH - Thursday December 10th 2020
Memorise: And
all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. – Matthew 21:22
Read: Matthew
21:18-22 (KJV)
18
Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.
19
And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing
thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee
henceforward forever. And presently the fig tree withered away.
20
And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree
withered away!
21
Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and
doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if
ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the
sea; it shall be done.
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Bible in One Year: Romans 14-16, Sing Hymn 18

Open Heaven

There
is tremendous power in faith. In Mark 9:23, Jesus Christ Himself said:
“…If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that
believeth.”

Heaven 9 December 2020 – The Second Death
When
Jesus says “All things”, He really means all things. In Mark 5:36, when Jairus
was told that his daughter had died, the Bible says:
“As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the
ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.”
And
before that day was over, the one who had died came back to life.
Open Heaven 10 December 2020 – THE POWER OF FAITH
In
Matthew 15:21-28, a woman came to Jesus praying. It appeared as though God was
not even paying attention to her, but by the end of the day, Jesus said “Woman,
great is thy faith.” In other words, He was saying that even if He had not
wanted to grant her request, He would because of her great faith. There is so
much power in faith that time and again, Jesus told people “Thy faith has made
thee whole and they were whole.” So it was not so much of His power healing
them, but the power of their faith in God.
Open Heaven 10 December 2020: [Thursday] Daily Devotional By Pastor E.A Adeboye – THE POWER OF FAITH
My
Father-in-the-Lord once went to conduct a revival in our Church in Ilorin, and
the Spirit of God moved him to say “If there is anyone here who is trusting God
for the fruit of the womb, go and buy the appropriate clothes for the gender of
the baby you want.” A woman heard and decided that she would do just that. When
she got home, she bought a cot and baby boys clothes and displayed them where
everybody could see. A lot of people began to laugh at her, saying she had gone
mad out of her desperation to have a child. She ignored them, held on to the
word of the man of God and nine months later, when the baby boy arrived; it was
her turn to laugh.
I
want you to make your own move of faith now. Whatever it is you are trusting
God for, make the move as if you have gotten it like that woman did. Since the
Lord was gracious enough to hand over the anointing of my Father-in-the-Lord to
me when he was leaving the world, I call on that anointing now to work on your
faith and make your desires come true according to the will of God, in the
mighty name of Jesus.

is so powerful that it can move a mountain and throw it into the sea.
Open Heaven 10 December 2020 Thursday Hymn 18: My Faith Looks Up To Thee
My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!
May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire!
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire!
While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
When ends life’s transient dream,
When death’s cold, sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Savior, then in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul!
Action Point:
Faith is so powerful that it can move a
mountain and throw it into the sea.
