Faith Invested

 
For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment,each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. (Romans 12:3 ESV)

The measure of your faith invested into your desires will bring a harvest of fulfillment. By your faith the Lord will react to your requests for the impossible to be overcome. Faith is a attribute to life in more ways than one could imagine. The tool of faith which is given to all that believe is a tool that should be sharpened and applied on a daily basis. Faith brings about the miraculous and the life of a person who sows into the impossible and witnesses the harvest of the possible. When people came to Jesus to be healed or had a need that was out of reach physically, He would state to them that their faith had made them whole. (Matthew 9:22; 29) Using faith like a seed, planting it where it will bring a harvest is using wisdom in life. Sowing into ground that is not able to produce or unwilling to receive it will not promote teh results you would hope for. Faith should always be sown in good ground and he harvest will be plentiful.

When faith is defined as an assurance and a conviction (Hebrews 11:1) there is an unfailing certainty that the result hoped for will sprout and grow into the fullness of your desires. The completeness the comes through faith goes far beyond what you could ever imagine. (Ephesians 3:20) The matter of the widow women who had a issue of blood for those many years is a testimony of what faith can produce. All she desired was to touch Him and hope that she made be made well or have an answer to her illness. To her persistent faith and “push” through a great crowd brought her results beyond what she hoped for. Jesus stated that her faith had made her well… (Matthew 9:19-24) She had in her all the time a faith that could establish her health and well being. She found out that day that she needed to sow the faith in to good ground. That harvest was one she would be able to share throughout her life… and into eternity!

Thinking of what one can do is important but “doing” what one can do is the step that should be taken. Investing the measure of faith and knowing that the result will not only bring a blessing but it will also increase the faith one has. Growing in grace and faith is a result of proper sowing and reaping. Sowing into God’s Word is taking your faith and placing into the promise that God has given you and washing it with His grace and power. The product that will come forth is a life that believes the impossible and trusts the foundation laid by the Lord. His response to you will be according to your investment of faith in His promises and the hope of His response.
