"When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”

 Mark 2:5

What is Jesus saying about your faith?

When He looks at you, is He finding faith?

What is Jesus thinking about your faith?

When Jesus sees your faith, your sins are forgiven. So you must have faith to receive forgiveness.

The plan of salvation is done! But if you don´t have faith you will carry the burden of sin on your shoulders.

"He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm." 

Matthew 8:26

In this situation, Jesus sees faith but He calls it little.

That´s why disciples were afraid.

Doubt/fear does not match with faith.

Your faith must be exercised otherwise it will become weak.

"The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you" Luke 17:5-6

You can ask the Lord to increase your faith. 

You don´t ask something like the mulberry tree to move because you don´t believe...

Having faith is the only way to survive!

Ask the Lord to increase your faith.

"And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith." Matthew 13:58

That´s why you don´t see more miracles... You lack faith!

May God have mercy!

"When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him,“Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith." 

Matthew 8:10

What command is God given when He looks to your faith?

"What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food.  If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder. You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless?" James 2:14-20

God is teaching you that you must have faith and must do something in accordance with your faith.

You need to apply your faith.

Start doing something to work your faith out!

Will your faith overcome fear or will it be overcome by fear?

If you don´t use your faith is the same of don´t having it!

What difference does it make?!

John 6:29

 

"But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe."

John 6:36 

• We fight a war against unbelief.
• If we come to church, raise our hands, if we are good to others... To do all these things  is not enough if we don´t believe.
• Before doing anything for the Kingodm, we must believe.
• God wants to awake us.
• How can we live without Faith?

"Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?”" John 11:40
