THE ECONOMY OF FAITH By Divine Antwi +233550730203 - The Divine Ministry International (DMI)

Wow. Welcome. Welcome. Breading. This is Diviner. Unless God speaks.

First Friday and last Friday of every month. This is

15 minutes of pure intimacy with the Lord. Through prayer, worship,

thanksgiving and ascension. Breading. When we meet like this, we

spend some few minutes to thank the living God. For

how far he has brought us. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I don't

know wherever you find yourself. You can begin to mutter

something unto God. That blessed be the name of the

God most high. The Elohim. The ancient of days. The

great monarch of Zion. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Lord Jesus.

We bless your name. We give you all the glory.

We give you all the praise. We bless your name.

We give you all the glory. According to Psalm 113

Psalms 113:2

verse 2, it says, Blessed be the name of the

Lord from this time forth and forever. Bless his name.

Bless his name. He's the one that has protected you,

that has preserved you. There is none like you. Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Father. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Father. Sister,

let's pray. Brother, let's pray. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Jesus.

You deserve all glory. You deserve all praise. Our mouth

should forever thank you. Blessed be the name of the Lord.

From this time forth and forever. In Jesus' mighty name. Father,

we thank you. We bless your name. We adore your name.

We give you all the glory. We give you all

the praise. In Jesus' mighty name. Well, brothers and sisters,

this evening... I want to speak to you shortly on

what I entitled the economy of faith. Are you with me?

The economy of faith. Hallelujah. You see, my time is

very little, so I become on you. Please and please again.

You need to pay rapt attention. In the next 10 minutes,

I will be done. God bless you. Hallelujah. Father, I pray,

even as your work comes unto your people, let Christ

be exalted in the house of men. Let the intent

of this message be achieved fully to the glory of

your name. In Jesus' mighty name, I pray with thanksgiving. Amen.

The economy of faith. That is my message title. Somebody

is even asking, what is an economy? When we say

an economy, economy simply in basic terms means Economy simply

in basic terms means it refers to the domain that

manages how a society uses its natural resources, labor and

capital to satisfy human needs. So synonyms for economy can

be trade, business, market. The economy of faith. I believe

that you've heard of faith before. According to Hebrews chapter

Hebrews 11:1

11 verse 1. Now, faith is the substance of things

hoped for. The evidence of things not seen. Are you

with me? Are you? It's boiling in my heart. Help me,

oh God. Are you? Are you? Listen. Faith in my

own definition. I made an acronym for faith. Listen to me. Faith. F-A-I-T-H.

I use the F for fool. The A for assurance.

The I for him. And the T for tears. And

the H for hope. Are you with me? So this

is how I define faith. Faith is the full assurance. Faith.

In things hoped for. According to Hebrews chapter 11 verse 1.

Hebrews 11:1

It says. Faith is assurance. Faith is the. Substance of

things hoped for. The evidence of things not seen. Now,

let me come to my message title. I wanted to

define some terms for you. So that you will be

abreast with some of the terms I will be using.

In the course of this message. It's left with my

10 minutes. Help me Jesus. Listen. Now, you need to

understand that God is a king. And as a matter

of that, he's a king over a kingdom called the

kingdom of God. So, for example, when you read Matthew 6.33,

he says, Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness,

and all these things shall be added unto you. So,

God is a king over a kingdom called the kingdom

of God. That is where he reigns. And so, for

every kingdom or for every nation, for every nation, they

run the nation by an economy. Are you with me?

By an economy. This evening, I'm talking to you, or

this moment, I'm talking to you on what I call

the economy of faith. I want to bring to your

notice that there are so many structures, or there are

so many capital, or there are so many trades that

happen in the kingdom of God. Let me give you

five economies in the kingdom of God. We have the

economy of grace, the economy of love, the economy of

Of mercy. I with me. We also have the economy

of power. And we also have the economy of faith.

So right now, I'm just giving you five examples. The

economy of love. The economy of grace. The economy of mercy.

The economy of power. And the economy of what? Faith.

And this is what I'm talking on. The economy of

faith is large. It's vast in the kingdom of God.

For example, you know, when Ghana, we are reading our

economy or our budgets for every year. The kind of

allocation of resources that we put for the health sector,

you can't compare it to the transport sector. Are you

with me? It is hard. Shame for the economy of faith.

The economy of faith is very big in the kingdom

of God. For without it, there will be no transaction

with God. That is why in Hebrews 11 verse 1,

Hebrews 11:1

he says, is the evidence of things hoped for, the

assurance of things not seen. Now, listen. Listen. Types of faith.

I want to bring to your notice some types of faith.

There is no time. I'll be ending very soon. Some

types of faith. When Jesus was on the earth, when

he came to the earth, he had so many discourses.

And some points in time, he spoke of some types

of faith. Let me quickly bring to your notice some

of the types of faith. We have the great faith. Hallelujah.

When you read, according to the book of Matthew chapter 8,

Matthew 8 · chapter mention

Jesus' healing of the centurion's slave or the centurion's servant.

Jesus said, I have not seen such a great faith

in Israel. So that is a great faith. You need

a faith. And I pray that your faith will be

great in God. That you know that's what God has

allocated in his kingdom. Because faith is large. You need

to have a majority to have business with God. Now,

another type of faith according to Jesus is little faith.

Are you with me? Somebody say little faith. That is

little faith. He said, O ye of little faith, according

to Matthew 6 verse 30. The same in Matthew 8

Matthew 6:30 Matthew 8:26

verse 26. And another one in Matthew 14 verse number 31.

You remember when Peter was walking on the sea, Jesus

told him, Oh, you don't have faith. You have little faith,

so you are falling down. Another type of faith is...

No faith. What I call the faithless faith. That you

have no faith. That's what Jesus said. According to Mark

Mark 4:40

chapter 4 verse 40. And Luke 8 verse 25. Are

Luke 8:25

you with me? Are you? Now, listen. And another type

of faith is the apportioned faith. The apportioned faith. Faith

by portion. When you read Matthew 9 verse 29, it says,

Matthew 9:29

By your faith, be healed. According to your faith, let

it be done unto thee. Mark 5, 34. Mark 10, 52.

Luke 17, 19. Luke 17, 19. That is apportioned faith. Now,

this is where I'm going. I just needed to build.

But it's only left with my five minutes. You need

to pay rapt attention. Are you with me? Higher. Higher. Higher.

Hebrews 11 verse 1. Faith is the evidence of things

Hebrews 11:1

hoped for. Faith. Faith. cannot be overemphasized in the kingdom

of God. For without it, no man can even please

the Lord. Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for.

The evidence of things not seen. I want to bring

to your notice again that faith... It's in the presence.

It's not in the past. That's why the scripture says, now, now, now, now.

And the action you take as a result of the

faith you have is what we call belief. So belief

is the active form of faith. If you have faith,

then there will be works that will accompany your faith.

That you have faith. And that is what James chapter

James 2:17

2 verse 17 says. Faith without work is dead. For example,

as I'm speaking to you now, you may be sick,

but I declare unto you that you are healed. It

may be that you can't even walk as I'm talking

to you now, but as you hear me, if you

have faith and you believe, you begin to stand up.

Whether you feel it or not, you begin to stand

and you begin to walk. As I'm talking to you,

it may be that there is some sickness, some form

of chronic disease that is tempering your health. As I

speak now, may you be healed in the name of Jesus. Now,

the action that you take as a result of the

faith you have in the words I'm saying is what

we call the belief or belief. Are you with me?

God bless you. So if I say be healed, you

just say amen. It means you have faith. So you

are accompanied by your works. There is no time. Help me,

oh God. Say, Lord, let my faith be stronger. Jesus said,

if you have a faith like a master's seed, you

just need a little. Let my faith be stronger. Let

it be strong, strong, strong. Let it be strong, strong.

Somebody need to pray now. Faith that will not crumble,

even in the face of adversity. Faith that will stand

across all tests of time. In the name of Jesus,

make my faith to be strong. In the name of Jesus. Hallelujah.

Hebrews chapter 11 verse 2. For it, the elders obtained

Hebrews 11:2

a good report. Are you with me? That is what

the scripture says according to Hebrews 11 verse 2. It says,

Hebrews 11:2

by faith, the elders obtained a good report. For example,

there is no time. Help me, Jesus. I need more time.

The 15 minutes is up. It's left with my two minutes.

But listen, when you take the account of the story

of Ruth and Naomi, you realize that by faith, Ruth

had a good rapport with God. For how come a

hidden or a Gentile be even recognized in the genealogy

of Jesus? Or in the descendants of Jesus? I mean,

it was by faith. Ruth... followed Naomi. He entered into

the economy of faith. I'm telling you, if you have faith,

whatever you want to have in God, you'll be able

to have it. Because with faith we draw, we attract

things from heaven. There is nothing that will be made

natural unless a man has that faith that what is

not seen yet will be seen, even in the natural.

According to Hebrews 11 verse 3, it says, By faith

Hebrews 11:3

we understand that the worst were framed by the worst

of God. So that the things which were not seen

Were made seen Are you with me? So with faith

we assess, we draw, we attract We possess things In

the heavens To be made natural To be seen on

the earth There is no time The economy of faith

I want to challenge you That whatever you need in

God The economy of faith is large In the kingdom

of God Enlarge. Enlarge your tents of faith. So that

you can draw more from God. He has made available.

According to Romans 1 verse 17. He says. They just

Romans 1:17

shall live by faith. You will live by faith. You

will not die. You will live by faith. You will

not grow weary. In the name of Jesus. You will

live by faith. God bless you. This is Brother Divine
