As believers we are called to walk by faith and not by sight and many people quote that scripture in 2Corinthians 5:7 a lot. However it is one thing quoting it when nothing really that much is going on, rather than living it through a crisis.
Mat 8:5 When Jesus was going into the town of Capernaum, an army officer came up to him and said, Mat 8:6 "Lord, my servant is at home in such terrible pain that he can't even move." Mat 8:7 "I will go and heal him," Jesus replied. Mat 8:8 But the officer said, "Lord, I'm not good enough for you to come into my house. Just give the order, and my servant will get well. Mat 8:9 I have officers who give orders to me, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I can say to one of them, 'Go!' and he goes. I can say to another, 'Come!' and he comes. I can say to my servant, 'Do this!' and he will do it." Mat 8:10 When Jesus heard this, he was so surprised that he turned and said to the crowd following him, "I tell you that in all of Israel I've never found anyone with this much faith! Our Christian walk starts with faith, we continue to walk in faith and we will have the victory over the enemy and entry into eternity through faith. So what is Faith? Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. So as you can see if you only rely on your 5 senses of smell, hearing, seeing, tasting and touching, you can never allow faith to bring you closer to God. What happens when the doctor says to you that there is no hope? Whose report are you going to believe, the doctor? Or Gods, when he says: Exo 15:26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee. Or when it looks as though they are going to repossess your house and you are going to be out on the street, those report are you going to believe, theirs or Gods, which says: Psa 37:25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. Faith is the method of causing God to act on your before, but what the enemy wants to do is to get you relying only on your 5 senses so he can cause fear to come in. Because he knows fear will paralyse faith and without it is impossible to please God. Parallel Principals We are working a business that is based on momentum, once the momentum starts your business will take on a life of its own. However while you are building toward that, you have to have faith in what you are doing, because life is still there. While you are building you are going to have challenges that will try to cause you to stop: Money issues Family issues Work issues Time issues Self issues Other people issues The bible says if any one decides they are going to do something, they should first count the costs. Therefore if you have truly decided you are going to build a business with Reliv, you need to count the costs and see if you are willing to make the necessary sacrifices it is going to take to build financial freedom. Most people want the freedom, but they don’t want the process. Unfortunately you can not have one without the other. So faith plays an important factor in all of this because remember: Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. So don’t just build your business relying only on your 5 senses but know that you are guided by your sixth sense (The Holy Spirit) but in order tap into him, it starts with faith. And that's how you will deal with crisis. ********************************************** Jason Gregory Business Coach & Mentor Reliv International *********************************************
