Imagine having Jesus right there in your town, ready to do amazing miracles, yet missing out because you didn’t believe! That’s what happened when Jesus went to Nazareth, His hometown. He wanted to do mighty miracles there as He had done in other cities, but He could not. Amazing, isn’t it? It wasn’t that He wouldn’t; He couldn’t. He could do no mighty works there because of their unbelief! He only laid hands on a few sick folks and healed them (Mark 6:5-6).
Unbelief can stop the flow of God’s power. God could be present with all of His power and might in a place; others could even be receiving miracles all around you, yet unbelief will prevent you from getting yours. But with faith, you can plug into God’s power. There’s a lot to learn from the woman with the issue of blood. She heard about Jesus, believed what she heard about Him, and acted on it. She touched the hem of His garment, and by so doing, plugged into the flow of the healing power.
Faith is like a seed you sow in the realm of the spirit, and when you do, you reap a harvest of what you believe. The more you believe, the greater the harvest you get. The problem with a person who doesn’t believe is that his unbelief constantly produces a lack of the miraculous in his life, which unfortunately can only lead to greater unbelief. If you believe, then you’re blessed, for then you’ll have a performance of those things that the Lord has told you.
So, whether it’s your grades, your friendships, your health, or pressure, remember that without faith it’s impossible to please God, but with faith, nothing is impossible in your life!
Speak
I believe God’s Word with all my heart, and my faith is alive and active! I refuse to give room to doubt or unbelief. By faith, I’m plugged into the power of God, and I experience the miraculous in every area of my life. My faith produces results always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
