Your faith is your victory.

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.”                         Psalm 34:19 (KJV)

Do you know that all those things that happened to Job in the Bible was for only six months. Those long standing challenges we read about in the Bible all took place within six months. And within six months, he came out of it.

Many years ago, I use to think that the time it takes to solve a problem, shows how difficult that problem is. But God corrected my thinking and said, “The time it takes to solve a problem is dependent on your faith.” So the duration of the problem is dependent on my faith and not how strong the problem is.

Jesus raised Lazarus that has been dead for four days in one moment. Why? It was His faith. He didn’t need to pray for six hours and then after six hours, declare that Lazarus should rise up. So if it took someone else six hours of praying to produce results, it just means that it took that long for his faith to be activated to release a rhema to produce results.

Not spending time in the Word of God, studying and listening to the Word will only delay the growth of your faith and your effectiveness and ability to produce results by the Word of God. So, instead of complaining and wondering why that problem or challenge is still lingering, keep building your faith in the Word of God, for our faith is the victory that overcomes the world.

Confession
I am born of God, and according to the scriptures, whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world, this is the victory that overcomes the world even my faith. Therefore I declare that I have overcome this world because greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.
