A Prayer of Faith

“Praise be to you, O LORD,
God of our father,
from everlasting to everlasting.
Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.
Wealth and honor come from you;
you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.
Now, our God, we give you thanks,
and praise your glorious name” (1 Chronicles 29:10-13).

Let us never forget the goodness of God. He has blessed us with an everlasting blessing. God has not kept any provision back from us. It seems that we chose to live a life below our full potential. We do not grasp and use what God has made available for us. Why do we not see the possibilities of faith that surround us? I think it is because we do not trust God to back up what he said to us. We do not take hold of the promises of God, and use them. God will do as he promised. We need to believe and live out the power of God in our lives. In the book of Hebrews chapter 11, we read, “By faith . . . ,” and examples of people acting out their faith are listed. What will you do “by faith” today? Take a risk of faith and step outside your confort zone!
