Central Business District,
Garki - Abuja

Speaker: Pastor Ambrose Nwogu
Topic: Prevailing by faith (How to grow in Faith) (2)
Text: Luke 17:1-6
* It is your responsibility to grow by faith
* God expects you to keep growing in faith
* Take care about what you think, say and do so that you do not cause offense
* Many Christians do not want to be rebuked for any sin they commit
* It requires a high level of faith to forgive offences, especially repeated offences
★Proverbs 15:3 →"The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good."
* There is no offence that anyone does to you that the Lord is not aware of
* Many will misconstrue your forgiveness be weakness
* NOTE: Forgiveness is an act of meekness
* It takes faith to remember that vengeance is God's prerogative
* The efficacy of faith is not dependent on the size of faith
→ You do not need a very big faith in order to do what God desires
* NOTE: As small as a mustard seed is, it is still a real & complete seed that, given the right conditions, it will become a fruitful and productive tree!
* As long as your faith is genuine, true, complete, credible, active and real, it will overcome every challenge
* Because the Lord is in your boat, he expects that you activate your faith in the face of every storm instead if panicking
