FAITH HAS NO REVERSE GEAR
” But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed, but those who have faith and obtain life.” Hebrews 10:39 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)
Â
The man of God Reinhard Bonnke made this profound statement, “A man of faith has no reverse gear.”
There is nothing we do in Christ without Faith.
The scriptures are clear,
Â
“THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH” (Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38).
Â
Who is the just?
It is the new man in Christ.
Are you born again in Christ?
Then you are JUSTIFIED!
Beloved, you did not just get saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus.
You live by faith.
Whatever God wants you to do can be done by faith. Faith is the absolute confidence and total trust in God.
Faith takes hold of what God has said in His word and runs with it.
Faith does not look back and has no reverse gear.
When Moses and the Israelites got to the red sea, they were troubled and began to complain. Especially when they saw the Egyptians army charging towards them.
They sincerely didn’t know what to do. They were scared of what shall befall them by the Egyptians.
Yet God has a direction for them. In the midst of the chaos and impossible situation, look at God’s response:
Â
” And the LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.” Exodus 14:15 (NKJV).
Â
Oh dear Lord Jesus!
He then instructed Moses as to what to do.
Â
” But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.” Exodus 14:16 (NKJV).
Â
This is an explicit example of “Faith without works is dead”.
God told Moses to move forward yet He instructed him on what to do as they move forward.
Don’t just sit in your room and be saying ‘God will do it’.
Great things don’t happen that way.
You have to take Holy Spirit inspired step. You need to act towards your miracle.
Faith is forward!
Faith doesn’t look back.
Faith doesn’t reverse.
Faith is taking inspired steps of God, for glorious manifestation.
Look at David, when he confronted Goliath.
Â
” When Goliath started forward, David ran toward him.” 1 Samuel 17:48 (Contemporary English Version).
Â
David didn’t run backwards, He charged towards Goliath.
He didn’t try to step back to watch what Goliath was going to do. He took a step in the boldness and confidence in the Lord.
Step forward to do whatever the Lord inspires you to do.
Refuse to be careful. Refuse to be afraid. Refuse to be intimidated.
Refuse to quit.
When you quit, you cannot see what the Lord has said He will do through you.
The three Hebrew boys did not change their minds. They stood on the grounds of their convictions.
And thought, even if God doesn’t come to save them, they will not bow! (Daniel 3:18).
The woman with the issue of blood, did not stand afar to assume her healing will happen. She kept saying to herself if only I will touch His garment, I will be healed.
As she was saying to herself she moved through the crowd, touched Jesus’ garment and received her healing.
Don’t sit back to assume things will fall in place. Move in faith.
Selah.
