TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
Think about the faith of a
child. They believe whatever they are told. They have a constant expectancy
in their hearts. They keep on asking for what they desire and believe they
will receive it!
Scripture says that we must
become like little children in our faith. What does that mean? That means we
need to have complete reliance on God. We need to trust what He says. We
should wake up every day with expectancy in our hearts thinking, “I can’t
wait to see what God is going to do today...Today, I could get a good
break...Today, I could be a blessing to someone in need.”
When you go out with the
faith of a child, you stay determined no matter what happens. No matter what
things look like, you know that God will be faithful to His Word. You keep
asking until you get an answer, and you are filled with joy until you see it
come to pass!

The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
