*Many* Christians are *asking* t question: *"How can I build strong faith?"
*These people *realize *that t things *they need from God,* like healing, prosperity, & other blessing, do *not come by* simply *being born again.
*These blessing *come thru faith.*
*Faith* is *not just an act of t will* of man.
*Faith *is *not *t *act* *of* you *deciding* that you're going to *be in faith.
*But it's more than that.
*Faith is acting on t Word *of God.
Here are some things I know will help you to be strong in faith.
*I.*
*# 1.* *Surround yourself w~/* *that which produces faith.*
*A.*
Every born‑again *Christian* has *received "the" measure of faith.
*
*1.*
*ROM 12:3*
*a.* It doesn't say *"a"* measure of faith, it says "the" measure of faith.
*2.*
What you do w~/ your measure of faith is up to you, but what you *do w~/ it determines whether or not* you *grow* in faith.
*a.*
So often Christians surround themselves w~/ things that will cause them to be weak in faith.
*i.* They might go to a church that does not teach t Word, listening to someone say that God does not want you well, he might have even put this sickness on you.
*ii.*
Sitting under that kind of thing will make you weak in faith.
*b.* If we want our faith to grow into something that will produce results we must surround ourselves w~/ positive people of God & not negative people.
*i.* We need to *feed* our *minds & spirits* on material that will build faith, not destroy it.
*ii.*
You don't feed you spirit by reading secular magazines or a steady diet of secular TV & expect to build you faith.
*iii.*
Where do you want to be: *barely making it w~/ God or do you want to be victorious.*
*Iv.*
People that are a success in this world, didn't start out a success.
There had to be some sacrifices.
*c.* *GAL 2:20; 5:24*
*i.* There are times that we need to *crucify t flesh *& those times are *more often than not.
*
*3.*
If you want to be strong in faith then surround yourself w~/ things of faith, not t negative.
*a.* *MAR 4:35‑41*
*b.* T disciples surrounded themselves w~/ that which produced faith.
*i.*
They didn't start off in faith.
*MAT 17:18‑20a c.*
But lets look at t disciples on t day of Pentecost.
*i.* *ACTS 4:13*
*ii.*
What did they see?
*"Unlearned & ignorant men." *But they *took note* that they had *been w~/ Jesus.*
*iii.* *How* did they *know* that they'd *been w~/ Jesus.
*
*Iv.
*Because they *acted just like Him.*
*d.* Who ever your around your going to be like them.
*i.* If there in *strife, you're going to pick it up.
*If there in *doubt & unbelief you're going to be like them.
*If they are in *unforgiveness, you're going to be like them.
*
*ii.*
*1COR 15:33* T *NIV* says, *(1CO 15:33)* "Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character."
*iii.*
But just t *opposite is also true.*
If t person that you're around is in *faith you're going to be picking that up.*
If there walking in *love, you're going to be that way.
*
*Iv.*
If you want T blessing of God in your life then surround w~/ t things that which produces strong faith.
*II.
#2.*
If you want *strong faith build on t Word of God,* *not* on *experience*.
*A.*
Your *faith needs to be on t Word of God* & not on experience.
*III.*
*#3.* *Look to t Word of God not to someone else.*
*A.*
*People* are always *going to let you down *& that can hinder your faith.
*1.*
*PSA 107:20*
*a.* *He sent* His *Word to heal* them, He *didn't send me to heal you.*
I can't heal any one.
*b.* Look to His Word not to man.
*IV.
#4.
OBEDIENCE* is *necessary *to build *strong faith.*
*A.*
*1JOHN 3:22*
*1.*
*JOHN 15:7*
*B.*
Obedience is needed to have strong faith.
*V.*
You need *HUMILITY* to have *strong faith.*
*A.*
*1PET 5:5*
*1.*
*(JAM 4:6)* But he giveth more grace.
Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
(KJV)
*2.*
We are to come to God by faith, but if we're in pride then God will resist us.
*VI.
#6 *You need to be *BOLD*
*A.*
Don't be afraid of t Devil.
*1.*
Boldly take back what t Devil has stolen from you.
*B.
#1* *surround yourself *w~/ that which produces *faith, 2nd Look To t Word not* to *experience, 3rd Look to t Word & not to someone else,* *4th Be obedient* to t Lord & to His word.
*5th Put on humility*, & *6th Be bold, *don't except what t Devil has to offer, fight back & you'll have VICTORY.
