FAITH

Will Bring You

by Ebenezer A. Badejo

Foreword

The Bible tells us without faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). This means the way to please God is not by being good enough, which is impossible, but by having faith that Jesus was good enough on your behalf. Your faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ makes you one with Him. Now when the Father looks at you, He doesn’t see your sin and shortcomings. He sees a perfect son or daughter who is created in His image and looks just like Jesus. You can use that same faith to access the grace to live a holy life like Jesus (Romans 5:2).

When believers around the world understand the power of their faith, and what it truly means to be born-again by faith, there will be a wave of freedom in the body of Christ. No longer will there be striving among believers to please God through their works. They will rest in the righteousness of their Savior, and their lives will reflect it. Understanding the power of faith will bring an understanding of true righteousness. Christians living in shame and condemnation will be a thing of the past. They will know who they are because they know who their God is in them.

Ebenezer Badejo has an understanding of this faith I am talking about. Anytime I talk to Ebenezer I am encouraged and truly impressed with his understanding of the things of God. Despite living with many challenges, Ebenezer remains steadfast in his faith. Since I have known Ebenezer, his attitude continually humbles me and reminds me what is truly important in this life, our faith in Christ.

This book is the first of many from Ebenezer that I believe will bring great revelation of who we truly are as Christians through faith in Jesus. It is an honor and a privilege to write this foreword for my friend, and man of God, Ebenezer A. Badejo. I am excited to see and hear the fruit that will come from this book and many others from Ebenezer.

Preface - On Faith

Faith is the keystone of Christian life and living. It is also a lifelong teaching, doctrine, and tenet of every true follower of Jesus Christ, and writing on it tends to of making many books (wherein) there is no end.

There have been many teachings, doctrines, movements, writings, and books on faith from generation to generation, because faith is a major focus in Christianity. Christian life and living is all about Christian faith; and Christian faith is all about Jesus.

The Holy Spirit inspires and teaches Believers on faith from time to time and in diverse manners wherein He reveals Jesus to us, in Whom we live, walk by faith, do the will of God, fulfill the plan of God, and have His purposes established.

For me to write this book, "Three Things Your Faith Will Bring You," I cannot but give a chapter to focus and write on faith as the Spirit inspires, and the other chapters focus on the very theme of the book. My prayer is that the Lord will use this book to work out living, active, deep, and strong faith in many lives, and that many will attain Salvation, Healing, and Victory by their faith in Jesus’ Name.

What is Faith?

1

In the Word of God is the true and perfect definition of life and everything. These verses below highlight the profound meaning of faith:

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Faith is the substance

Faith is the substance of things hoped for. That means faith is what you hold on to as assurance of what you are expecting. Faith as a substance is the most vital part of what you are hoping for and expecting. What you have physically is not as significant as what you strongly hold and have by faith. The Bible says:

2 Corinthians 4:18 as we look not to the things that are seen
