In the scriptural times faithful men of God displayed some level and rare depth of conviction in their relationship with God.
I their days, they spoke the word of God with all power and authority and they carried out actions that were potent and deeply inspired. Through all this teachings and preachings, they obtained great results and outstanding victories to the glory of God.
The display of trust and manifestation of supernatural confidence is hinged on the level of relationship and fellowship and communion developed already.
They came to a stage where they clearly understood that will of God and knew all the promptings of God.
There are alot to be learnt from their way of living. They spoke as they believed, and it was so. They projected God and not self.
It is very important and necessary they as believers we should learn to develop and exercise unshakable faith in God.
WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE PHRASE 'OVERCOMERS FAITH'.
To overcome means to subdue, to surmount or can also be to prevail over an obstacle and to overwhelm and win.
While faith is an attitude that had to do with a level of conviction and trust in a situation.
Overcomers faith refers to a mentality of having a strong conviction and trust in God and his ability to perform all he had promised to give us. It also involves the believing in the word of God so as we can prevail over challenges and trials. It also involved expression of positive words and having good victories.
ARE THERE ANY HINDRANCES TO THE MANIFESTATION OF THE OVERCOMERS FAITH?
Yes!!. There are hindrances to manifestation of the overcomers faith. These hindrances are found in our mentality, our actions, also in our environment and the pressures they bring to us. All these hindrances are bent on taking us away from having it possessing the overcomers faith and they bring oppression to us in the long run.
Also persons may have certain doubt and unbelief in their minds. Such doubts and unbelief can hinder one from developing the overcomers faith.
Peer pressure also from friends can also hinder one from having the overcomers faith.
Most importantly, one who lacks the Holy Spirit can not be able to develop the overcomers faith. So we all should strive to have the Holy Spirit and live in righteousness.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HAVING THE OVERCOMERS FAITH.
A believer who is able to exercise the overcomers faith will have the privilege of abiding in the love of God and thereby enjoying the fullness of fellowship with the father.
His or her life will be pleasing to God and as such will be surrounded by the blessings and mercies of God.
Most importantly, he or she will inherit the kingdom of God where he or she will be rewarded as a faithful servant.
So I urge us as believers to always strive to develop the overcomers faith.
Thank you steemians.
