BELIEVE IN JESUS
‘’Then said they unto him, what shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, this is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.’’ John 6:28-29 KJV
This is a very interesting decade. Things are going to happen so fast. There shall be acceleration because of what God is set to do. God is going to ensure that any idea He drops in your heart will come to pass. He is going to overrule the works of darkness and you shall see the manifestation of the things that have been longstanding in your life. Therefore, it is important that you understand what gives you access in the presence of God. It is not your works. Jesus has already paid the price.
They came to Jesus and asked Him: ‘’what shall we do that we might work the works of God? What can we do to be acceptable by God? Tell us what to do so that we can be pleasing to God.’’ This is the answer from Jesus: “Believe on him whom he hath sent.” What shall I do to be able to survive in this decade? What shall I do about the medical report? What shall I do to come out of this financial challenge? Believe in Jesus! “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth” (Mark 9:23 KJV).
It is not about what you will do but believing what the Lord had already done. You shall see the manifestation of what God has promised us. The God of all Grace will settle you even in this decade. Your settlement will come in quick succession. Your struggles are over! God has prepared a table before you in the midst of the shaking. You will not be ashamed! Whatever has been a source of concern to you over the years shall be settled supernaturally. You have come into your season of rest. God will fight your battles and He will shut the mouth of the enemy. Your part is to believe.
