Introduction: Foundational Statement of Faith
- Foundational Statement of Faith: You have no idea what God may produce through a single seed planted in faith
- Our problem with faith, life, God’s blessings, etc., is that we think addition but God thinks in multiplication.
- Verses of Proof: Genesis 1:28 & Mark 4:8
- Genesis 1:28: God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.
- Mark 4:8: Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, some multiplying thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times
- Just because we don’t see the fruit doesn’t mean the seed hasn’t already taken root. Just because you don’t see the provision doesn’t mean that God isn’t working in the background doing something only He can do.
- You have no idea what God can do through your quiet, faithful seed that is planted in faith
- Verses of Proof: Genesis 1:28 & Mark 4:8
- If God met all your expectations, He’d never get the chance to exceed them.
- Verses of Proof: Ephesians 3:20
- Ephesians 3:20: Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us
- Verses of Proof: Ephesians 3:20
Gazy Faith
- Gazy Faith: Faith in God that is outside of the context of your limited situation and instead look up to God and who He is.
- EX.) Genesis 15:5: He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.
- God gave Abraham gazy faith when He took him outside his tent (limited situation) and told him to look up to the heavens.
- Verse of Encouragement: Isaiah 55:9
- Isaiah 55:9: As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
- EX.) Genesis 15:5: He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.
- We don’t praise God for what we see, but who He is
- Verse of Proof: Galatians 3:29
- Galatians 3:29: If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
- God fulfilled His promise to Abraham, not only by giving him a son, but by making him a father of so many descendants, as much as the stars in the sky
- Galatians 3:29: If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
- Verse of Proof: Galatians 3:29
- When you call on the name of Jesus, God hears your prayer
- Never measure God’s unlimited power by your limited expectations. Get out of your perspective and see God’s blessings.
- You don’t need unlimited faith, you can have faith as small as a mustard seed
- If it’s not God’s time, you cannot force it, but if it’s God’s time, you can’t stop it!!
