Intensive Faith Therapy

Don’t you love to hear the testimonies of the saints? It is so wonderful to hear or read how God delivers His people. It is often through the strong testimonies of the saints that we can gather strength to go on. Remember that God is no respecter of person. Therefore, we can cling to that old church saying “If He can do it for me; He can do it for you”.

In chapter 3 of “Intensive Faith Therapy”, we look at the Testimonies of Trust. The Bible provides an array of testimonies of mighty men and women of God. Within this vast list, we are told of the effects of trusting God. Science teaches us that for every action there is a reaction. Life teaches us that everything we do has a consequence, whether good or bad. What are the expected results when we believe in God?

The expected results are given to us in the Word of God. God will help us, defend us, save us, deliver us, prosper us, reward us and bless us if we trust in Him. God will be a shield and a place of safety for us if we trust Him. What a mighty God we serve!

We see in chapter 11 of “Intensive Faith Therapy” that Jesus is very impressed by faith. During His earthly ministry, He often commented on the faith of the people he encountered. There were several times that He marveled at the “great faith” that some of those people had that came to Him. Other times, He was equally astonished at the lack of faith, or “little faith” that some of those that were the closest to Him had.

It is clear from scripture that Jesus expects us, those that are the closest to Him, to operate in “great faith”. Sure, it was wonderful that the Gentile woman and the Centurion soldier had faith that Jesus could solve their problems. However, it looks like He expected even more from his disciples. He expected His disciples to have enough faith to do something about the raging storm and the lack of food. He really expected Peter to walk on that water.
How would Jesus rate your faith today?

In Chapter 10 of “Intensive Faith Therapy” we received a better understanding of Hebrews 11:1, particularly the last part of the scripture, “the evidence of things not seen”. We looked at the meaning of evidence in the judicial system to get a better understanding of what exactly our faith is. We compared the credibility of factual evidence and hearsay. We discovered that in a court setting, you will have a better chance winning your case if you have factual evidence as compared to hearsay or circumstantial evidence.

We concluded that the best evidence that we have is the Word of God. What does the Bible say concerning your situation? Do you see it as credible?

We also looked at other types of evidence that is used in the judicial system, particularly the testimony of witnesses. Witnesses that can testify that they saw the incident happen are the most credible. Those that only think they know or was told by someone else that something took place are usually considered circumstantial or hearsay.

What is your faith made of? Remember, your faith is the evidence. What evidence are you working with? Do you have scripture that apply to your situation? Are you building your faith with the testimonies of people that are telling you that God can indeed make a way?

Court is now in session. We know that our faith must be tried and the evidence must weigh out. We know that we have solid, truthfully evidence of God’s goodness and faithfulness to his people in the Word of God. We are going to search out the scriptures and find our evidence. We believe that God is a faithful judge and that He is no respecter of person. We have no time for doubters and unbelief. We believe God’s Word and we are building strong faith in Him. God is faithful and He faithfully takes care of his children.
