"God has dealt to each one a measure of faith." Romans 12:3 NKJV
Thank God, faith isn't reserved for deeply spiritual people. If that was the case, we would all be in trouble! The fact is that regular from all walks of life can be faith filled. We're inclined to think faith belongs exclusively to people like Abraham, Moses, Elijah, Samuel, Daniel, Peter, and Paul. Now, without question, they were all faith heroes, but faith doesn't belong solely to them. The Bible tells us, "God has dealt to each one a measure of faith." No one will miss out on heaven because he or she wasn't given enough faith to "believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved" (See Ac 16:31). God intended that not only should we have faith but that we should live by faith. Three times the New Testament assures us "the just shall live my faith" (Heb 10:38 NKJV). You reply, "Yes, but those biblical heroes had great faith; my faith is so small!" Did you know that the apostles felt the same way? They said to Jesus, "Increase our faith" (Lk 17:5 NIV). And Jesus replied, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it will obey you" (v. 6 NIV). Like so many of us, the apostles thought they needed more faith. But Jesus corrected this spiritually crippling misperception by telling them you don't need a truckload of faith to see amazing outcomes. "Faith as small as a mustard see" can bring about awesome results. When you put the faith, you already have been given into action, Jesus said it will produce results!
