DL Moody's Secret Of Faith

Monday, January 4, 2021

The renowned evangelist Dwight L. Moody spent hours praying for faith. He once said, "If all the time I have spent praying for faith was put together it would be months. I thought someday faith was going to come down and strike me like lightning. But faith did not come. Then one day I read in the tenth chapter of Romans, 'So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.' I closed my Bible and prayed for faith. I now opened my Bible and began to read God's Word, and faith has been growing ever since." Believers today describe faith as asking God for whatever you want and He gives it to you. There are many seminars and ministries today which base faith on this kind of emotional self-want. But real faith is based on the center of God's Word, which is Messiah, and what He wants for us. Do you want greater faith? Forget the seminars. Open your Bible today. Read the Word. Put it into action. Faith will come, faith will grow, as it always has, by the Word of God.rn
