Keeping strong in faith

1 Corinthians 16:13,14 - Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. Let all your things be done with charity.

One way of increasing your faith is putting yourself on the job. When I started working for the Lord my faith was not much, but as I continued my faith grew tremendously.

Working for the Lord is done out of love not just to please people, but to help them prosper in the right path - spirit, soul and body.

Doing things for people just to please them is not love, but really helping them in a genuine way to help prosper is true love, God kind of love - Agape. Preaching the Gospel is one of the greatest ways of loving people since you want to save them eternally. When we do this we are not only helping others, we also land up helping ourselves grow in faith.

So grow in faith as you reach out to others.


[ Prayer Starter ]

Father God, true love is shown in You alone. When we imitate You, we grow in You. Help me Lord to bring others to You, for as I draw others to You, You draw me closer to Yourself. Give me the courage and resources to preach your Good News to the people You have put in my life. I ask this in Jesus' Name, Amen.

The Word of God was given free to us, therefore we should also share it freely with others. (All rights are with God)
