N othing get Christians in trouble like the misconceptions of what faith Is. You planned to buy a house, but you are only making $10 US per hour. You want a house that can impress your family and friends, the mortgage is $1000 per month. Mouth talk and belly full talking is not faith. Some people talk things the way they would like to see it goes. We talk things the way our commentators comment on the Olympic game. "John Jones is burning up the track with running!" However, the John Jones that he is talking about in the very back of the race. (2) You have light bills. (3) phone bills, and cell phone. (4) Car insurance. (5) food. (6) Doctors bills. (8) Car maintenance. (9) house tax and up keeping. (10) Union dues. This is a must are you can get fired base on hear says. (11) Oil and gas for your car. (12) Tithes and offering for church. If you do not pay this, preachers can use the scriptures and make you feel real bad" You are curse with a curse" You know the church stuff. If you are a Christian but not so strict, you will have clubs bills, smoking bills and doctor’s bills.
The mathematics tell you that, $1000 per month mortgage is too much, the mortgage alone will eat up your income. Is impossible. Faith can tell you that it is possible, because faith see open doors that the mathematics did not see. However, do not commit yourself, until those doors are open. Look what our lord say in the following verses.
Listen To The mathematics
Luk 14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he may have enough to finish it; Luk 14:29 lest perhaps, after he has laid the foundation and is not able to finish, all those seeing begin to mock him, Luk 14:30 saying, This man began to build and was not able to finish. Luk 14:31 Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not first sit down and consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Luk 14:32 Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace. Luk 14:33 So then, everyone of you who does not forsake all his possessions, he cannot be My disciple.
FAITH WILL TELL YOU
Go for something smaller, or go update your profession, so you can be in the position to get $18 per hour instead of $10. Faith is not going to back down, but it will show you another way.
James 2:26-AV For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
James 2:15-AV If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, James 2:16-AV And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be [ye] warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what [doth it] profit? James 2:17-AV Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. James 2:18-AV Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. James 2:19-AV Thou believes that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. James 2:20-AV But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
FAITH IS BASE ON EXPERIENCE
1Samuel 17:33-AV And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou [art but] a youth, and he a man of war from his youth. 1Samuel 17:34-AV And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: 1Samuel 17:35-AV And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered [it] out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught [him] by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. 1Samuel 17:36-AV Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God. 1Samuel 17:37-AV David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.
You remember what God did for you is somebody else, and applied it to the condition that you are now into. If God did that for me back then, he can do it now.
ONLY THE ABOVE EXPERIENCE WILL CAUSE YOU NOT TO DOUBT.
Mark 11:23-AV For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
FAITH IS TO REMEMBER AND APPLIED
Deuteronomy 5:15-AV And remember that thou was a servant in the land of Egypt, and [that] the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day.
Deuteronomy 7:18-AV Thou shalt not be afraid of them: [but] shalt well remember what the LORD thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt;
Deuteronomy 8:18-AV But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for [it is] he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as [it is] this day.
Matthew 16:9-AV Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
Matthew 16:10-AV Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
Hebrews 13:2-AV Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
FINAL WORDS
Faith is encourage by experience, faith is to remember what God has done and to applied it to your current conditions. Faith is to do what your hand finds to do. Faith is to live with what you have until you can do better. Faith is not to complain, but to give thanks.

My version of Christianity!
My version of Christianity is from Ethiopia, not the Christianity of the Americas. Ethiopian Orthodox. The Christianity that Philip the Evangelist brought to the Ethiopian eunuch, and which the eunuch brought back to Ethiopia, and they practice for thousands of years.
