Feeling stagnant in your life, down in the dumps, stressed out and downtrodden, at the end of your rope? If your answer is yes then there is hope for you as you read this book.
Faith is the capability to change your identity from its present state and take on God’s identity. Whatever action you take or not, will determine the outcome.
Faith is the connection to a life of prosperity, happiness, joy and peace, hence the title of this book; Favor, Authority, Inspiration, Treasure, Hope (FAITH).
This book is written with much emphasis to help each person who reads it (whether saved or unsaved, believer or unbeliever, churched or un-churched, young or old) to realize what he or she is lacking and to help that person to move from a place of stagnancy into their destination. It is your personal commitment and determination to trust God and do whatever needs to be done to bring you into your destined station (destination) in this world

Faith “sees”[i] the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible. God can take a dead/barren situation and bring life from it. This is referred to in Isaiah 54 and Ezekiel 36:36-38. It is up to us to walk by Faith and not by sight (2 Cor.5:7). Therefore I don’t object to waiting upon God until he sees it fit for him to make the impossible possible. Everything I need to survive in this lifetime is already provided in the spiritual realm. If it is provided in the spiritual, then it is just a matter of time before it is manifested in the natural. The beautiful flower you see today, was once [hidden in] a bud. The flower could not be seen readily, because it was enveloped in a protective sheath to keep it intact until the time of flowering. The natural eye was unable to see the “flower”, but it was the intent of the spiritual realm that a flower will come to perfection at the right time.[ii] The spiritual realm has always been aware of its existence. If you could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, your whole life would change.[iii]
It’s easy to “advise” others on what to do or not to do. However when it becomes personal, it is not so easy to take your own advice. In your lowest of low, God has someone set apart to speak on your behalf.[iv] Sometimes you think life as dealt with you harshly and you just want to quit. You want to trade your Faith in God for past happiness, so you resort to returning to the place where you once left. I make reference to Naomi who lost her husband, both sons, as well as her hope in God. She decided to go back to the place where God had brought her from and so she wanted her two daughters-in-laws to leave her and “get a life”. What she didn’t know, was that it was God’s intention to bring her to the land of Moab so that she could form an unbreakable bond with Ruth. Faith is getting under somebody whose wings has “fallen down” and push their vision. Though that person’s vision may be laid aside, God is able to bring back that vision to life. Just like how God used Ruth to do for Naomi. The devil wanted to abort what God intended for Naomi, by trying to get Ruth to turn back.
