The Measure Of Faith

Grace AsomaniUncategorizedAugust 6, 2020 2 Comments0

Today’s Bible Reading : Luke 17:1-10

Memory Verse : Luke 17:5

‘And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.’

Commentary By Andrew Wommack

There are many scriptures that speak of varying degrees of faith. However, the scriptures also speak of Jesus increasing in wisdom (Lk. 2:52) that certainly refers to His physical intellect drawing more and more on the perfect wisdom of God that was already in Him at birth. It is in this way that we also increase in faith.

At salvation, the believer is given the supernatural faith of God. We had to use the very faith of God (not human faith) to believe the gospel (Eph. 2:8).

That faith came to us through hearing the Word of God (Rom. 10:17), and once we are born again, it becomes an abiding fruit of the Spirit within us.

Every believer is given the same measure of faith at salvation but not all believers use what God has given them. Therefore, it is correct to speak of growing in faith and having great faith or little faith, but it is important to understand that this is speaking of how much faith we use or manifest – not how much faith we were given. All believers were given ‘the’ same measure of faith.

Jesus’ example of the grain of mustard seed underscores the truth that our faith is sufficient if we will just use it without the hindrance of unbelief.

He then continues on into the parable of the servant serving his master to illustrate that our faith is not the problem but rather our use of it. We are using it to serve ourselves instead of our master who is God.

Living by faith is not something special that only the ‘super-saints’ are supposed to do. The Lord expects all of His children to live a supernatural life of faith. He gave you everything you need to do this, just let Him live through you.

    Faith can do everything we put our minds to and believe it whole heartedly. Using faith wrongly for our own benefit as an example. I will like to give an example ( a husband sleeping around and believing so strongly that he won’t be caught, but there is this tiny bit that we don’t think off, with that same measure of belief and faith in doing that wrong act if we put the same in working in the marriage wouldn’t it work? ……I guess I should thank God for this Revelation and insight. Another is at work, we work so hard and take every over time that comes along and yet we cry when things are not going well with our marriage life, children and relationships. The same amount of hard work we put into our circular job that same amount should be put in the other things as well especially the things of God and we will do will

    Dear Lord my prayer and desire is for You to live through me! May my life be one of faith alone at all times!
    ‘ Every believer is given the same measure of faith at salvation but not all believers use what God has given them‘.
    It is simply how we use it in our lives that matter!!!
    I really treasure these devotionals! Always glean something new and powerful!
