“ ‘If you can’?’ said Jesus. ‘Everything is possible for one who believes.’ ”

– Mark 9:23

The power of belief is truly remarkable. What you choose to believe has a direct impact on your life. Your beliefs shape your thoughts, your actions, and ultimately your destiny. Everything in your life can change when your beliefs change. If you desire to transform your life and become a more positive, faith-filled person, it all starts with your beliefs. But how do you change what you believe? How do you build a strong, unwavering faith? The Bible gives us clear guidance on this.

Faith is not something we receive simply by praying, even though prayer is vital and something we should do every day. Nor does faith come only through worship, even though worship also is important and uplifting. The Bible, specifically in Romans 10:17, teaches us that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. This means that when we listen to, read, and reflect on the word of God, our faith grows stronger. The more we fill our minds with God’s promises and truth, the more our faith increases.

My friend, even for those who may not hear the word of God physically, faith still comes through receiving the word of God, whether through reading, sign language, or other means. The key is to consistently expose yourself to God’s word. If you want more faith, spend time reading, listening to, and even memorizing scripture. This principle—the law of belief—applies to every part of your life. When you fill your heart and mind with the Word of God, along with the assistance of the Holy Spirit, your beliefs will be transformed, and as a result, your whole life can be changed for the better!
