Deliberately
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone
who comes to him must believe. Hebrews 11:6
Faith must have an object of its attention. This verse states
that " ...anyone who comes to him must believe." So what are you
to believe? The proper object of faith is God. It is crucial that
you believe that "he exists and that he rewards those who
earnestly seek him." (Hebrews 11:6b) But when you seek the Lord,
a casual glance in his direction is hardly sufficient.
Give your deliberate attention and priority to learning more
about the God of your salvation. Christ transforms and is able to
give you new life and hope you have not known before. Then, when
you call to Him in prayer, He "will answer you and tell you great
and unsearchable things you do not know." (Jeremiah 33:3) Your
desire will be obedience to the God whose grace and mercy in your
life is immeasurable ... and He will be pleased with you.
Enoch "walked with God" (Genesis 5:24) and was "commended as one
who pleased God." (Hebrews 11:5) Keep a deliberate faith ...
trusting that in this time of great wickedness, God will answer
your prayers for your family and the leaders of this nation.

I live in Oxdrift my passion is the word of God and Bible studies. I love to encourage others to read the Bible and to share their personal testimony. I first started to read my Bible (which was a gift from a friend) back in 1982. After several weeks of reading this precious book I became aware how real the people were and I started to became more and more fascinated about the wonderful living scenes, their personalities and their lives were so real that I couldn't put my Bible down. The more I read the more I felt real freedom in my life, wonderful things unfolded day by day such as healings, miracles and magnificent experiences. First time in my life fear disappear, my kidneys were totally healed, peace and joy flooded my life. In April 15, 2003, after seeking and praying for several weeks I met our precious saviour who baptized me with His presence, fire fall on me it touched the top of my head and ever so gently travel through my body and left at the end of my toes, this was such a phenomenal experience that my life was for ever change. Jesus became my passionate friend who has never fail me, He has always been there for me through all these years. Recently He call me to start "The voice of Truth Minitries" I love to share my passion for the work of God with friends and I am thankful for those who stand with me to make this Ministry a reality.
