Faith has been described as the living force drawn from the living word of God to bring out a living proof.
While preaching at the 4th convention and Thanksgiving service of the Cherubim and Seraphim Movement Church, Igbara-Oke zone, held at C&S Movement church District Headquarters, Igbede, Ikare-Akoko, Pastor/Mrs Lola Ogunoye exhorts that women should always use Esther as example of woman of faith.
She added that the attributes of faith shown by Deborah and Ruth should not be forgotten. “Deborah was referred to as wife of Lapidoth, this shows she was a responsible woman even in her home. Ruth as well, though things were hard at the beginning, she thanked God at the end.”
Speaking from the book of Daniels 3:16-18, she said faith can subdue kingdoms and as well provoke God into action.
“Faith pleases God, and whatever pleases God makes Him do the unusual. That is why God came to Shadrach, Meshack and Abednego’s aid, and they conquered with faith”.
Ogunoye added that there’s no battle one can win without faith. Therefore everyone should try not to allow their faiths to shake no matter
the circumstance.
She therefore advised everyone to pray always that God should help their faith, because life is a race, and the only thing that can ensure success is one’s faith.
