Hebrews_11-1: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen

James_1-3: Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience

My God Is No Respecter Of Persons. If I Act On His Word, Without Doubt, He Will Honour My Faith

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”

John 14:12 (KJV)

In our text today, Jesus began by saying: “Verily, verily [. . .]” (John 14:12, KJV). In other words, Jesus is saying, “I am telling you the truth that I know.” Jesus Christ goes on to say, “[. . .] the works that I do shall he do also [. . .]” (John 14:12, KJV). Is Jesus a liar? Certainly not. He cannot lie. He is the truth and everything He speaks is the truth. Beloved, let us not cower like failures and defeated people. Let us not cower as if we are in trouble. We must begin to exercise our God-given authority in Christ.

In the early ’70s, when the revival hit Nigeria, people were doing all kinds of crazy things and getting results. I’m talking about believers. This is why the word spread the way it did. This is how churches spread. The believers were doing whatever they read in the Bible. When they read that Jesus said, “Go and spread the gospel”, they moved from city to city and saw incredible miracles.

I know of a believer who read that Jesus said, “Go to every city and preach the gospel. Heal the sick, cast out the devil, and raise the dead.” The man began to go to every house. After knocking he would ask: “Is there anyone who died here?” He went from street to street till late in the evening when he finally found a place where somebody had died. A little child had died in the morning. When he said he wanted to raise the child the people looked at him and told him that he was crazy. This man was a new believer. He acted on the word of God, and the Lord honoured his faith. After he prayed, the child sneezed and came back to life. Praise God!

Beloved, God is no respecter of persons. If you act on God’s word, without doubt, He will also honour your faith.

Ephesians_2-8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Romans_10-17: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God

Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.

2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.

4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.

6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Acts 3:1-6

Matthew_17-20: And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you

Galatians_3-26: For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.

5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.

7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.

8 And there was great joy in that city.
Acts 8:4-8

1-John_5-4-3: For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith

Galatians_5-22: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith
