‘According to Your Faith’

‘According to Your Faith’ By MICHAEL BROWN for Stream

Recently, while flying to Las Vegas to minister, I ended up sitting next to a pastor, as both of our seats were changed at the last minute. It turns out we had many friends and co-workers in common, but this was the first time we had met, and we recognized the meeting as providential.

This pastor had a large international ministry, through which he had impacted thousands of leaders. He, in turn, had been deeply impacted by a well-known Asian pastor who had challenged him to grow in his own faith and vision.

As this pastor, who was a few years older than me, recounted his travels with this Asian pastor, he said to me, “Do you know the most challenging verse in the Bible? It’s where Jesus said, ‘According to your faith, be it done to you.’” And he repeated those words slowly: according to your faith.

Without faith it is impossible to please Him.

The double-minded man receives nothing from the Lord.

Mountains only move when we believe and do not doubt.

It is the prayer offered in faith that makes the sick person well.

According to Your Faith

To the blind Jesus asked: “Do you believe that I can heal you?”
