“To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.” Hebrews 11:1 GNT
“Seeing is believing” is how the world works. For God to prove that we’re truly not of this world, were told to “believe without seeing”.
Christianity and belief in God are based on believing without seeing. We worship God, believing He is with us and hears us. We lay our hands on the sick, believing they are healed, even before it happens physically.
We believe we’ve been empowered to do something exceptional. We didn’t see God’s spirit get poured into us like you’d pour water into a cup. But we just know it is done.
Faith helps us make the impossible possible. It brings the future that we hope for into the present.
Our faith is active when we act like what we want has already been done. When we do this, our joy continues to grow, we have more gratitude, and the cycle repeats itself.
How can I activate my faith as I do exceptional work?
We limit ourselves because we believe we cannot be more. But we were created with a capacity whose limits we don’t know.
And then God says that when He fills us with His spirit, we will do greater works. Only faith can do this because we didn’t grow extra muscles or gain height.
But we go out and are exceptional because we believe we are, even before seeing the results we seek.
We channel our gifts and capacity to create through our work because we believe we possess them. And those who believe, see more things work out for them than those who don’t.
Do you believe it?
“To do exceptional work, I must believe I’ve been empowered in these areas…”
You may realise you find it easier and fun to do some tasks better and faster than others. Or perhaps you have a burning desire to help a set of people.
God empowers us differently but with the same Spirit. Note down these areas, and you’ll be on your way to standing out and becoming the future self you’ve always prayed for.
