LIGHT WORD

LightWord: “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9a Starting this series is for the purpose of digging deep to know what can be sufficient for man in the race of life. Now, if we are to talk about that one thing from God’s Word that will be sufficient according to the Word of God, it is therefore the Grace of God. Grace is the only thing that will ever be sufficient for a man (either male or female). God said to Paul the Apostle, My grace is sufficient for you. No wonder, Paul became the legend, the greatest Apostle of his time, he was outstanding among His fellow Apostles; because something was sufficient for him - THE GRACE OF GOD! Say this to yourself: Lord, thank You for Your all-sufficient grace. Let Your grace be sufficient for me and my household from now on in Jesus name. Amen!

LightWord: “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith;” 2 Corinthians 13:5 Faith isn’t a one-time thing . It grows as we face new challenges. You must know that new level, new devil. So, we must keep checking ourselves, staying firm. No wonder, Paul declares in our focal Scripture of today, that we should examine ourselves if we are still in the faith: that is, checking day by day. Say this to yourself:  Father, fill me continuously with the spirit of faith. Help me to remain steadfast in You and live a life of victory every day in Jesus’ name. Amen!

LightWord: “We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly.” 2 Thessalonians 1:3a NKJV It’s true that everyone will face challenges. Even Jesus faced opposition. That’s why He said in John 16:33 that as long as we are in this world, we will have tribulation. But 1 John 5:4 shows the key to victory is our faith. Without faith, there is no victory . Like the believers in Thessalonica, our faith should keep growing. Say this to yourself:  Father, thank You for Your Word that builds my faith. I pray my faith will never fail. Let it grow stronger every day and give me victory by faith all the days of my life in Jesus’ name. Amen!

LightWord: “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh” 2 Corinthians 10:3 The justified are called to live by faith, and by faith only. Read Habakkuk 2:4, Romans 1:17, Galatians 3:11, Hebrews 10:38 . Living by faith means, depending on God continually to live a victorious life. See, no matter your title—Apostle, Bishop, Reverend, Pastor, Senior or Junior Evangelist, Servant of God or anything else—everyone faces challenges, everyday challenges. So, if you don't want life's troubles to overwhelm you, a faith lifestyle is a must. Say this to yourself: Jesus, every trace of unbelief in my life, especially toward Your Word, that might cause me to be cheaply defeated. By Your mercy, turn it around into strong faith for me, in Jesus' name. Amen!

LightWord: “Jesus replied, “Have faith in God [constantly].” Mark 11:22 AMP Paying your tithe isn't just a desire, it's an act of obedience that reflects faith. Faith is a need! As believers, we're called to live by faith. The Scriptures point out four (4) different places both in the Old and New Testaments that the just shall live by our faith. The righteous have no other lifestyle. Say this to yourself: Father, thank You for the little faith I have now. I thank You for You will increase my faith in You. I do believe, help me believe more, in Jesus' Name. Amen!

LightWord: “And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.” Luke 17:5 Faith is an essential need in a believer's life . Do you know the difference between a want and a need? A want is something you desire, but a need is something essential for your life and purpose. For example, you might say, 'I want to buy a car', or, 'I want to give to God a thousand times offering', or, 'I want to bless my Pastor.' Those are desires. That is a want. But a need is what makes you function. A car doesn't want gasoline, it needs gasoline to function. Say this to yourself: Father, from today, by the power of Your Word, let my faith become active day by day to function fully the way You want me to function in life, in Jesus' name. Amen!
