Rhapsody Of Realities 15 September 2024 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): Don’t “Chicken” Out

TOPIC: Don’t “Chicken” Out (Rhapsody of Realities 15 September 2024)

…Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? (Luke 18:8).

In today’s world, people tend to abandon their commitments easily. They get tired of their job and leave; they get tired of their marriage and walk out. They get tired of their children and distance themselves. They get tired of anything and just check out. This isn’t the faith-lifestyle we’ve been called to live; it indicates a problem.

Faith requires stability, doggedness, staying power and even patience. Faith never gives up. What such folks may not realize is that they’re giving Satan the opportunity to hinder them from fulfilling the will and purpose of God for their lives. He disrupts their jobs, tries to ruin their business or destabilize their relationships, and they just give up. No; don’t allow it. Resist the devil and he’ll flee from you (James 4:7).

Faith isn’t just for getting what you want from God; faith is for living for God and establishing His righteousness in the earth, irrespective and independent of circumstances. So, being tired of everything and “checking out” is not an option for the child of God.

You can’t just decide to abandon your ministry, job, business, or academics because you’re facing challenges. Put your faith to work; become earnest and importunate in prayer and intercession; don’t chicken out. The Bible says those who quit in the day of trouble are of a poor specimen (Proverbs 24:10).

The mind plays a crucial role in this process. It is often attacked by Satan with doubts and negative thoughts. You must actively reject those thoughts that do not align with God’s truth and instead, let your eyes look straight on. Set your heart on the right course, on what God has said concerning you. Don’t deviate from the vision; focus on His Word. Set your affections on Christ and His Word, and your faith will always prevail.

CONFESSION

My faith is strong and never wavers because it’s founded on God’s Word. I don’t give room to doubt and fear. My thoughts, words and actions are in sync with God’s eternal Word, bringing glory to Him, irrespective of circumstances, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:

Matthew 17:20 – And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Hebrews 11:1 – Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

James 1:6 – But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
