"Faith & The Impossible" by Nancy Dufresne

We can only move with God by faith, so to advance spiritually, we must continue to feed our faith. If our faith isn’t growing, our spiritual life isn’t developing.

     In Hebrews 11, speaking of the heroes of faith, we see the phrases “by faith, through faith, and in faith” recorded 20 times. These faith heroes moved with God by faith.

     God majors on faith. God’s Word majors on faith, therefore, we should major on faith. 

     In Mark 4:24 Jesus stated, “…Be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you—and more [besides] will be given to you who hear” (AMPC).

"Faith That Impresses Jesus" by Nancy Dufresne

There are two things that made Jesus marvel. Let’s see what they are.

     Mark 6:1-6 reads, “And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him. And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands? Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him. But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house. And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And he MARVELLED because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.”

"A Word For 2023" by Nancy Dufresne

Two years before my husband died suddenly, the Spirit of God said to me, “All I want you doing is practicing peace.” He was telling me what to emphasize in my daily life to help prepare me for what was ahead. I didn’t know what was ahead, but HE did! God was preparing me for that day so that day wouldn’t take me off course.

     I obeyed Him. I practiced peace. How did I do that? Every thought that didn’t add to my peace, any thought that tried to trouble my mind, I answered it with the Word of God, then I cast it down, refusing to touch it in my thought life. I paid attention to my thought life.
