Day 58: The Faith Fuse
By Reinhard Bonnke
Faith has neither bulk nor weight, for it is something that you do. Jesus spoke of “faith as a mustard seed,” referring to something tiny, but with huge potential. Perhaps today, he might speak of faith as a fuse. Tiny as it is, it transmits the awesome power generated in power stations to our homes. Without it, every appliance is useless, unable to draw from that power. Our faith – however small we think it may be – can accomplish great things.
“Another parable he put forth to them, saying: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field, which indeed is the least of all the seeds; but when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.’” (Matthew 13:31-32)
As believers, we know what we believe, and in whom we believe. Believing tests us. Taking God’s Word at face value, accepting its divine authority, we plug into the very Source! Faith is the vital link. By it, the energies of heaven flow into the world … and into your life. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” (Acts 16:31)
The greatness of God, the work of Christ, or the Word of God, without faith as small as a fuse wire, is unavailable. The circuit is broken. Once connected, the fuse itself cannot help, but shows the effects of the power surging through it. It warms up! Faith makes us dynamic, exuberant, excited! Allow the fuse of faith to activate your life today. “What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? … Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, ‘You have faith, and I have works.’ Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.” (James 2:14-19) Take God’s word at face value! Accepting its divine authority is connecting to the very source of life!
