Resting In His Faith That Never Wavers

“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, “

Hebrews 12:2

My dear friend, have you been praying for healing to take place in your body? Have you been expecting for a miracle to manifest in your family’s life? Maybe you have been asking God for favor upon your parents’ career.

It might have been days or even weeks since you asked God for this particular miracle. As days passed you by, you felt doubt starting to consume you. You may start asking yourself whether your faith qualified you for the miracles you have been expecting for.

A few years ago, when I did not see God answering my prayer in time, I started to condemn myself. I said to myself, “The bible says that if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, move from here to there. And it shall move (Mathew 17:20). Does that mean that I don’t even have the faith the size of a mustard seed?” Maybe you have been asking yourself the same thing too.

Beloved, there is nothing wrong with your faith. God did not find fault with your faith and He hears your request and petition since the first day you have asked of Him (Daniel 10:12). Do not ever let the lies of the devil sink into your heart telling you that your faith is too small to receive your miracle. Do not feel condemned.

The word of God says in Hebrews that, Jesus is the author and the finisher of our faith. When you don’t have the faith for the miracles you have been expecting for, He is the beginning of your faith. When you felt worn out because of your small faith, Jesus has added His faith into yours and has perfected your faith. Your request is presented to the Father in a perfect faith, because Jesus becomes your faith.

Friend, rest in His faith that never wavers. The bible didn’t tell us to focus on how big our request is or on the size of our faith, it says look unto Jesus (Hebrews 12.2). If you have been focusing on how big are your problems, I urge you to turn your eyes upon Jesus now. Jesus is your faith, and you can rest assuredly in His faith knowing that His faith will never fail you.
