Measuring Your Faith

Introduction: How big is your faith? Little faith? No faith? Much faith? Great faith? What level is your faith? Subpar? Exceeding and soaring? Do you agree. These days are requiring “Much Faith”! Let’s face it. Either we find ourselves worrying or trusting. Sometimes it is both! What is it you are worried about today? Is your mountain bigger than your faith? After all, what is faith? How can we get more faith? According to Paul who was led by the Spirit, faith comes by hearing the Word of God. (Rom 10:17)

1. More Faith! (Luke 17:5)

“And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.”

When we ask for more “faith” expect more trials! As we endure and pass the “faith” test our trust and faith in Jesus grows. Where are you in your Faith? Level 1; 2, 3, or 4?

2. Little Faith! (Matt 6:30-32)

“O ye of little faith? 31Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.”

At times we have “faith failures”! Is your faith in Jesus increasing or decreasing?

3. Great Faith! (Matt 8:10)

“10When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.”

Do you want to impress Jesus? Try exercising your faith in His Word.

Conclusion: Have Faith in God! In the context of Jesus cursing a fig tree, Peter reacts to this phenomenon by pointing it out. Jesus says, “And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.” (Mark 11:22) Now let’s be honest, where is your faith level? Remember the test of faith leads to the best of faith!
