TOPIC: Conviction – A Pathway To Faith
SCRIPTURE: For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans
10:10
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Revelation must be translated into
conviction for faith to happen.
In Christianity, faith
is a critical subject. For a Christian to live a successful Christian life,
faith must be in place. Faith is one subject that must not be overlooked if a
Christian must live a successful and glorious life on earth. For example, all
the men of impact in Scriptures were men of faith (Hebrews 11:2).
Therefore, it is very
important to pay attention to our faith if we must have a solid destiny both in
this world and in the world to come.
Now, how is faith
developed?
the establishment of conviction.
The Word of God that
you read is useless until it establishes a belief in you. So, if you get a
revelation from the Word of God, and you are excited about it, it must produce
a conviction in you for it to translate into faith.
Your convictions make
you take steps that may make people to be afraid for you whereas you are not
afraid for yourself.
For example, people
may be looking for what to eat but your revelation and conviction from
scriptures showed you that it is not what enters your hand that determines your
welfare but what leaves you in the direction of God. So, on the basis of that
rugged insight and brutal conviction, despite the fact that there is shortage,
you are releasing towards God’s direction. This confirms the existence of
faith.
Beloved, until your faith
is backed up with relevant action, it is a waste of confession.
REMEMBER THIS: Revelation must be translated into
conviction for faith to happen.
ASSIGNMENTS:
1.
Let the revelation of
the Word of God in you produce conviction in your heart.
2.
Take practical action
based on your conviction.
PRAYER: Lord, thank You for the insight in Your Word.
I ask for grace for the revelation of Your Word to produce conviction that will
lead me to faith-based actions, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: Guilt is a killer of faith. When you are
haunted by guilt, there are times you will want to make certain decrees and the
devil will say, “Shut up! Remember what you did last time!” Culled from “15
KINGDOM STRATEGIES FOR SURVIVAL” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY BIBLE READING: Genesis 46-50.
REFLECTION: Company with God is key to belief in
God. People only doubt the character of the one they don’t know very well. To
know Him is to believe Him.
