(Matthew 9:29)…..Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.” God responds to faith. God blesses people who have faith. Don’t you appreciate people who have faith in you? Well, God appreciates people who have faith in Him. But His reason is not selfish, as ours may be. God knows His ways are right and bring blessing, while protecting people from harm. So, when we have faith in God, we will follow His instructions, and the world will be a better place.
When everyone has faith in God, and follows His way of love, the world will be a perfect place. Many people don’t understand God because they think He should respond to need alone, instead of responding to the need by faith alone. God doesn’t do that because it doesn’t work. Meeting human need without them having faith in God brings no lasting benefit.
(Matthew 8:13)…..Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.
