★ MY SERMON NOTES
@ NDIC/DMO Chapel,
Central Business District,
Garki - Abuja
23rd December, 2015
Speaker: Pastor Ambrose Nwogu
Topic: Prevailing by faith (How to grow in Faith (6)
Text: Acts 14:8-10
* Faith comes by hearing (Romans 10:17), but you must listen with both ears
* As you listen to God's Word, faith is built up in you
★ Proverbs 8:34 →"Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors."
* You must listen to God's word to the point that you become deaf and dumb to every other voice
* The 2nd component of hearing (after listening) is acceptance of what you are hearing
★ 1 Thessalonians 2:13 →"For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe."
* As long as you do not accept the Word of God, it will never be effective
* For faith to come, you must receive the word, accept it, welcome it, agree with it and embrace it, knowing that God's word does not fail, regardless of what happens (Mathew 5:18)
