COURAGEOUS FAITH, BY PASTOR FESTUS

"Believers love boat - Pst Festus"
Courageous Faith;
"Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them" - Joshua 1:6.
An online free dictionary defines courage as "The state or quality of mind or spirit that enables one to face danger, fear, an act of bravery.
Where do you find your courage? The strongest courage that we can possibly experience comes from faith in God. We find courage when we trust in His power, in His character, in His promises, and in His Word. When our faith is in the omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent God, what should we fear?
Courage is one of the greatest manifestations of faith. Courageous faith is confident that God cannot and will not make a mistake. Courageous faith knows that God cannot be wrong. Courageous faith is confident that God can never be defeated.
Read Hebrews 11:30-40. This section of the passage lists several biblical heroes who demonstrated great courage: "who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and defeated foreign armies" (Hebrews 11:33-34).
I have a word for a reader today; there's no fear in your fear, take a bold step into that seemingly world of the unknown and possess your possession in Jesus name!
Pray with me; lord deliver me from all forms of stagnating fear in Jesus name!
Have a blessed and beautiful day in Jesus name!
