According to your faith

"And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching."

Mark 6:5-6

Jesus could not do any mighty work in His home town because of their unbelief. He could only heal a few sick folks (See Mark 6:1-6). This shows us that faith releases the power of God and unbelief limits it.

God cannot do beyond your faith. So if you have not received your answer, the problem is not with God, it is because of your unbelief. In Matthew 9:27-30, two blind men followed Jesus demanding that He should have mercy on them. When Jesus came into the house, the blind men came to Him. Jesus said to them in Matthew 9:28-30, "… Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. And their eyes were opened; …"

Notice that Jesus said in verse 29, "…According to your faith be it unto you." This shows us that every child of God is living according to his faith. So if you are prospering, it is according to your faith. If you are in health, it is according to your faith.

Whatever you are enjoying or not enjoying as a Christian today is according to your faith. This is why you have to feed your faith by studying and hearing the Word of God so that it can grow. As your faith grows, the quality of your life as a child of God improves.
