Strengthening Your Faith预览

 OBSERVING FAITH IN OTHERS  

Throughout the Bible, we see multiple mentoring relationships. Among them is Moses and Joshua, Elijah and Elisha, and Paul and Timothy. The most excellent example is the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. In each situation, the leaders walked intimately with their disciples, teaching, training, and preparing them to be successful Godly leaders. The students observed the discipline and faith of their leaders, which strengthened their faith in the Lord God to fulfill their purpose.

Being surrounded by believers who speak faith and live by faith contributes tremendously to our spiritual formation. In observing their lives, hearing their prayers, and seeing their faith in action, we become strengthened to be able to believe God to do the impossible for us. Whether we are young in Christ or a seasoned saint, we must follow the example of faith set before us by born again, Spirit-filled believers in Christ.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, thank You for those who You have set around me to model righteousness and faith. May I learn and grow in faith from their example.
