Growing your faith

Sunset from my bedroom window...

I'm glad i went for School of Leaders today. I'm even happier that i attended 10.45am service. We had a guest speaker today, Pastor Ropati Amosa. He has an amazing annointing from God. The flame that burns for Christ. To be convicted and renewed by faith in God's promises. It's all about You, Jesus.

Here are the 5 points he talked about as to how to grow your faith:
1. Know your rights as a child of God.
- God has given YOU the power to overcome all things!
2. Focus on your focus.
- Focus on your focus because it makes your focus clear. So often do i forget my focus and start looking for things that are good. But see, God wants what's the best, not just what's good.
3. Exercise your rights and authority.
- The authority given to you from Christ is of no use if you do not exercise it.
4. We need to look at the different seasons and times of life.
- There is a season and a time for everything. Ecclesiastes 3:11
- We need to see things from God's perspective, not ours!
5. Trust in the sovereignty of God.
- If all perspectives fail, trust that God knows and resign in that truth. Jeremiah 17:7
- You are an eagle. An eagle doesnt just fly, it soars to great heights!
- Surround yourself with positive people. Some people are so negative that if you put them in a dark room, they might just develop.

I have forgotten how tiring dancing can be. Can you believe it? We made 2 hours plus! And all that equals 30 seconds real time. Whoa... but it was cool fun! Everyone was just bobbing along, and making up moves in front of those huge gigantic mirrors. And Chewy just had to come up with that fairy tutu idea! I'm really grateful for the people that God has put around me. So often i forget what a blessing it is and instead try to find a certain happiness outside just the friends scope. But no, now i see, every moment i spend with these gorgeous people, i'm gonna make the most of it! Focus, Ange, focus!

Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. -Hebrews 11:1.
