Description

Why do some people seem to have more faith?

No matter what status a person may have, no one is perfect and no one totally walks by faith. Doubt, worry, overwhelming feelings, and sin are part of the human condition. All of us need to trust God as our source, security, and assurance.

In Faith: Believing in the God Who Works on Your Behalf, Pastor Yonggi Cho shares his experience of miracles and examples of how to understand and grow in faith. As a young man with only weeks to live, Pastor Cho was healed of a terminal illness,
saw the resurrected Jesus, and quickly began telling people who had no hope that God would provide all they needed. Those few listeners grew to hundreds of thousands and became the world’s largest church.

This book will:

Provide principles for a strong daily walkTeach readers how to depend on the Holy Spirit • Encourage readers to believe for and trust God’s supernatural powerShare the truth that God can use any believer to accomplish tremendous things for his kingdom • Offer the hope of restoration, forgiveness, and courage to begin again

With an understanding that all people doubt, Dr. Cho and Dr. Goodall explain how to grow in faith and live in a hope that chooses to believe in spite of our circumstance, occupation, family, finance, or a myriad of other concerns.

“Faith: Believing in the God Who Works on Your Behalf” by Dr. Yonggi Cho and Dr. Wayde Goodall, is a divinely anointed book about genuine, prevailing faith, with time-tested spiritual insights into the deeper things of God, following the Holy Spirit with reckless abandon, teaching how to cross the “bridge of faith” between then and now, “to believe the implausible and attempt the impossible.” God bridges the delicate gap between the past and the present into a supernatural flow of His Spirit, in the secret place of prayer. “One thing I know, though I was blind, now I see.” – (John 9:25). When you experience the power and presence of the Holy Spirit, you walk by faith in the precious grace of God. You belong to Jesus, bought with His Blood. Faith in Christ transforms your life. As you walk by faith in Him, your faith grows to believe incredible miracles, supernatural signs and wonders. God will use you amazingly, giving you indefatigable courage well beyond the impossible.

These time-tested, spiritual truths will enhance your walk by faith, to believe in the impossible, dream God’s dreams, and let the Lord do what only He can do. “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him” — which God has revealed through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. (1 Corinthians 2:9–10). “Faith is more important than life itself because without it there is no fullness of life.” — Mother Teresa. By faith we see things happening when they do not exist yet. “Faith is being sure of what we hope for, and certain of what we do not see.” – (Hebrews 11:1)

We have a “measure of faith” (Romans 12:3). Faith as small as a mustard seed, can grow into a huge tree (Matthew 17:20). Faith grows as we study God’s Word and dwell upon His goodness. The Holy Spirit gently speaks in quietness and confidence, giving us fresh hope. “Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.” – Mother Teresa. Dreams Give Hope for Tomorrow. Our creative God gives creative ideas to open the door to circumstances to bless our lives. We carry dreams in our hearts. Successful People, with dreams and visions of the future, see what others cannot see, standing alone confidently. “If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with success.” – Henry David Thoreau.

Aged seventy-five, Abraham received God’s calling in Ur. Abraham possessed his God-given dream in his heart. God answered his prayer and made him into the father of faith (Genesis 12–24; Romans 4). There are principles of faith and God-inspired dreams. When God speaks to you in thoughts, dreams, and visions, your life is transformed because Jesus Christ is in the equation. God is with you and you are competent in Christ. Like Paul, we declare, “But one thing I do, forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:13–14). Although our dreams are not yet a reality, they give us vision to accomplish God’s will and His purpose in our lives. God-inspired thoughts can be turned into faith. Learn how to implement a strategy to work with God to bring a thought to pass. Your dream is not yet a reality. As you pray and study the Bible, you can set goals and ways to implement your goals.

When God spoke to Abraham, Abraham had a new dream in his heart for the future. This became a desire and he was filled with hope. Although he didn’t understand the dream, he believed what God had shown him. He trusted in God’s promise, a part of the dream in his heart. “By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going” (Hebrews 11:8 ESV). By hearing from God and his God-inspired dreams, insurmountable faith arose in Abraham’s heart. His dream became a desire, and Abraham left Ur. By faith he walked away from the familiar to the unfamiliar, due to the God-given dream to receive an inheritance. When Abraham was ninety-nine years old, he had faith to have his own child. His faith came due to the promise God gave him. In the natural, it wasn’t possible due of his age, but with God added into the equation, his dream became a reality and Isaac was born. Abraham believed, trusting in God, believing God would fulfill His promise. He took his first step by faith and walked away from his past. Abraham did not weaken in faith when his own body was as good as dead or the barrenness of Sarah’s womb. No unbelief made him waver concerning God’s promise, but he grew strong in his faith, giving glory to God. (Genesis 4:19–20)

When we have faith and the dreams of the Holy Spirit, our hope grows as we step out in faith. Our faith grows as we see the evidence come to pass. Abraham prayed for a son. He was promised to have as many descendants as the stars in the sky. On clear nights, gazing at tens of thousands of stars, seemingly unending, his imagination grew, and hope, encouragement and the anticipation of the fulfilled dream filled his heart. When we have a God-inspired dream in our hearts, we trust that God hears our prayers, giving us wisdom and patience as He brings our dream to fruition. But this only happens in His time.
