*📜EXPRESS YOUR FAITH*

*Monday, August 10th*
*Pastor Chris*

_*📖For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:10).*_

Faith isn’t passive; it’s something you practice. If you don’t act your faith, it will not work. Faith is more than “believing,” so don’t stop at believing. The Word shows that believing is from the heart, but its expression must be deliberate: with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 

There’ll be no salvation until you vocalise your faith. And salvation is much more than salvation from sin. It includes all the blessings that the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ consummated for us. So, when you receive truth from God’s Word, don’t wait for circumstances to align before acting on it. Respond immediately. 

Express your faith by aligning your thoughts, your words, and your actions with what God has said. God’s Word tells you who you are, what you have, and your ability in Christ Jesus; act accordingly and don’t wait for sensory confirmation. The Bible says, _*“For we walk by faith, not by sight”*_ (2 Corinthians 5:7). 

This means your life isn’t governed by what you see, feel, or experience in the natural; it’s governed by what you believe, and believing must be practised. If the Word says you have eternal life, then you live like one who has eternal life. If it says you’ve overcome the world, then you function from that position of victory. 

The Word says you’re the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus; make that your constant confession. Faith is expressed in words and action. Don’t negotiate with feelings or circumstances; establish the Word. Affirm your faith. Some people acknowledge the Word but don’t. practise it. But faith works through expression. 

James 1:22 makes it clear, _*“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only….”*_ Doing the Word is practising your believing, expressing your faith. It brings the reality of the Word into manifestation in your life. It strengthens your faith to produce greater results. This doesn’t mean you’re trying to make God’s Word true; it’s already true. You’re simply aligning yourself with it and allowing its power to be manifested in your life.

                 *🙏PRAYER*

*Dear Father, I thank you for your Word, which builds my faith and directs my life. I express my faith today by aligning my thoughts, words and actions with your Word. I walk by faith and not by sight, and I see your Word produce results in my life continually, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.* 

*FURTHER STUDY📖=>* *||* *‭‭James 1:22-25 KJV But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. [23] For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: [24] For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. [25] But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.* *||* 

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

*||* *‭‭Mark 11:23 KJV For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.* *||*

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
