Best wishes as you seek to develop, plant, receive and enjoy fruits from GREAT Faith seeds.
1. Compassion for others acts as a faith turbo boost! Got a need? Intercede!
2. Recognize and resist paralyzing fear that fights against planting seed faith.
3. Recognize and resist contempt that is still bred from familiarity, with anything, including Scripture and the Christian walk. Avoid being contemptuous toward those who may have contempt for you.
4. Seed faith, when planted, still sparks initiative to speak, so SAY what you believe, thus planting faith-filled word seeds.
5. Be timely in planting and growing seed faith. Don’t despise small beginnings.
6. Recognize and resist heady pride. Remain humble, sincere and worshipful before God.
7. Ignore your forgiven sinful background, and your descendants.
8. Watch your word seeds. They reveal your faith, and will not belie your heart.
9. Testify often and widely of God’s works in your life. A personal prayer log is a great tool.
10. For sure, God still tests hearts and minds, to verify and uncloak our faith, our willingness to believe, speak, and then act on what He says. Slow down. Pray to recognize, and to obtain Grace to pass His tests. (Jeremiah 17:10)
