TOPIC: MAKING IMPACT THROUGH FAITH

SCRIPTURE: Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, HEBREWS 11:33

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The reason why we are not all at the same level is that we are not seeing the same things.

In our journey through life, it is crucial to know that our existence, spiritual relevance and impact on the earth are made possible by faith.
Hebrews Chapter Eleven is commonly referred to as the

Bible’s Hall of Fame. This is because everyone who featured in Hebrews Chapter Eleven was someone who made impact by faith. Existence without faith is therefore existence without impact and relevance.

Now, if our lives and impact are determined by faith, what then is faith all about? Faith is seeing the invisible, doing the incredible or unbelievable, and experiencing the impossible.

You open the Bible and see something that others have not seen, and you go ahead to do something that others cannot do, then you experience something that others cannot experience. That is faith! They may say you are fanatical or foolish, but you are only acting based on what you see from the Bible.

Look at the case of Abraham for example. He heard what nobody heard, saw what nobody saw and experienced what nobody could experience. God told him, Get out of your fathers’ house to a land I will show you (Genesis 12:1-5). When he heard it, nobody was there. When he saw it, nobody was there. He did not even know the specific location he was going to. He only heard God’s voice and moved.

His family may have been surprised at his decision to the point of considering a deliverance session for him or even taking him for a psychiatric examination, thinking that the 75 years old man had lost his mind. But only Abraham heard what he heard and saw what he saw.

Today, Abraham is called the father of faith. He became the custodian of the blessing by that act of faith.

In the realm of supernatural supplies our ministry does not have or rely on any earthly sponsor. I believe there is a budgetary allocation from heaven for us. I also observe that in the Ministry of Jesus Christ, there was no collection of offering, yet He could go to wherever He wanted without any constraint.

He could send His disciples to go to a junction an untie a donkey that has never been ridden by any man, why? The donkey was part of heavenly allocations for His Ministry. He said, Go! If anyone asks you, say the Master is in need of it, and they will let you take it (Matthew 21:2-7 Paraphrased). He told Peter, Go to the river, cast the hook, the first fish that you will catch, open its mouth, like Automated Teller Machine (ATM), there is money inside (Matthew 17:27 Paraphrased).

And the same Jesus said to you and I, As my father sent me, I sent you. Who is that devil that wants us to be frustrated while on assignment for the Master? No way!
You know what? The reason why we are not all at the same level is that we are not seeing the same things.

Beloved, if you want to experience the impossible, see the invisible, and do the incredible.

REMEMBER THIS: The reason why we are not all at the same level is that we are not seeing the same things.

ASSIGNMENT (S):

1. Let revelation from the Word of God power your vision and expectations.

2. Whenever you hear God’s instruction, be prompt in obeying it.

PRAYER: Lord, thank You for Your Word that You designed to frame my world. I receive my portion in You as I act by the light from Your Word, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

*LET LOVE BE YOUR GREATEST*

*TEXT:* 1 CORINTHIANS 13:1-13.

1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

*Timeless Truth:*_"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity"_ (1Corinthians 13:13).

*INTRODUCTION*

In order to understand the importance of love in a family, society and nation, can you imagine a scenario where love does not exist at all and everybody from the least to the greatest is interested in his own alone? That community will be worse off than the rapacious and carnivorous animal kingdom. Love is much talked about, but biblical love is seldom understood and rarely practiced. The text is devoted to the subject of love and a lot of light is shown in this all important subject.

*1. The Pre-eminence of Love*

a. "I love you" is the common lip service of the populace and that single compliment, either genuine or fake, has had and still has great influence on people. However, it is possible and even common, to know how to speak "I love you" with an admirable tongue and accent without having the love in the heart. *"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity"*. Speaking in tongues is the initial evidence of being baptized with the Holy Ghost. It has become a public show by some christian artists, some preachers and some prophets as a symbol of spirituality and having the gifts of the Holy Spirit. It is possible to have all these gifts without love and in such a case the person has *"become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal"*. A sounding brass or tinkling cymbal is like a script, drama or film without content. It serves no useful purpose to any. This has to do with charisma without love in the heart. The message was to show the Corinthians Church and of course all believers, who pride in their gifts of the Spirit, talents and skills that love is pre-eminent above all.
b. Love is pre-eminent over all gifts including *"the gift of prophecy, and understanding all mysteries, and all knowledge...all faith, (that) could remove mountains and have not charity, I am nothing"*. Gifts minus true love in the heart is nothingness or emptiness as far as God is concerned. It is possible to invest all your treasures in welfarism without love in the heart. The purpose, for example, may be love for applause, praise or for some other selfish reasons. A commercialized gifted preacher may be motivated by financial gains or other profits in his service without love for others. He complains bitterly when the gains are not forthcoming. *"And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor"*. There are people who prefer to die for a cause or for mere religion without the love of God in the heart. Such selfishly believe there are profits in such a kind of sacrifice without the love of God in the heart. *"And though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity"*. The essence of such great sacrifices is for one profit or the other. But the Scriptures is saying that without love all those sacrificial giving or sacrifice of self will not attract any blessings from God. *"It profiteth me nothing"*. So check up if you have love of God and people in your heart before you offer any sacrifice or else the sacrifice will not attract any reward from God.

*Question*

Is there anything you consciously or otherwise exalt above love?

*2. The Practicality of Love*

a. There is a general misunderstanding about what love is. Rather than going into definitions and theology of love, the Apostle was inspired to show the characteristics of love so that anyone can always check if he has this love sufficiently or not. The love here has to do with the God- kind of love which the unregenerate in heart can never have.*"Charity suffereth long"* without being fed up or irritated after being subjected to painful sufferings or maltreatment due to carelessness, hatred, misunderstanding and misrepresentation of brethren and sinners. *"And is kind"* with bowels of compassion flowing out to others. He is considerate of others. He is never a proud person and neither does he have a superiority mentality. He rejoices at the blessings of others without being envious. When you are not happy at the blessings of others, it is an indication that your love for them is not genuine. *"Charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up"*. The loving moderates his behaviour to make sure that it is not hurting or offending others. It is not selfish and therefore, it zealously, without being passive, seeks the good of others.
*"Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own"*. Where someone gets irritated or offended easily about the behaviour of others, it is a show of lack of true and godly love. Love does not think, conceive or accommodate evil happening to others in his heart for any reason. His thoughts about others, including those who hate him is goodness *"Is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil"*.
b. How does love feel in the presence of sin or when it sees others fall into defeat? Does he say, "it serves him well?". Love is not happy because sin is opposed to the love of God. *"Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth"*. It does not like false doctrines and does not give attention or admire, either secretly or openly, their propagators. He is a lover of the truth and hater of errors. Furthermore, love is elastic. You can stretch it long without breaking. As a result, it can absorb and bear much pain and injury from others. *"Beareth all things"*. It can endure hardship even when he does not merit it. He always lives in faith that better things are coming and that others will one day change for the better. Love is ever optimistic and not pessimistic. *"Believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things"*.

*Question*

From these characteristics of love, will you claim you have this God-kind of love in its fullness?

*3. The Permanence of Love*

a. Many things change when transiting from the present world to the world beyond. Such things are transient and not permanent. For example, the gift of prophecies, speaking in tongues, and all our imperfect knowledge will all give way after crossing the narrow gate. They will give way to that which is only perfect. However, the fact is that charity remains in the heart even after death on the way to eternity. Charity is an eternal and permanent companion. Therefore, it must be well cultivated and fully cherished. *"Charity never faileth; but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away"*. Things that are permanent or eternal are more important than things that are temporary.
b. We must grow in love through passionate desire and prayer of faith for deeper love of the brethren unto perfection. A barometer for measuring growth is growth in love. Just as a child grows into adulthood so must our love grow. *"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things"*. There are traits of lack of love that may be permissible when someone is new in the faith. Such things must be gotten rid off by a truly growing believer. This love, with all its characteristics, must be consciously practiced against all forms of self will. If we make efforts to grow in faith, much more, we must make efforts to grow in love for God and our neighbours especially the brethren. If you are not growing in love you will be growing cold and depreciating in love.
*"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity"*.

*Question*

Think back at your previous years in the faith. Are you growing in love for brethren or are you diminishing?

*Prayer Points*

1.Lord, I praise You for the perfect love You have for me. Give me more grace to reciprocate that love .
2.Teach me and give me more power and grace to grow in love for the brethren .
3.Let the Spirit of true love descend and magnify itself in the heart of every believer .
4.We ask for the characteristics of love to be more visible among brethren .
