Monroe Dispatch - No Struggle, No Progress

This year I have thought a lot about faith. What it is, how it works, and why I need it are a few of the many questions I have been asking myself. I believe I have been called to gain a deeper understanding of my faith in this season. I know I am not alone in my thoughts as I have shared many conversations about faith with many people throughout this year. Through Bible study, devotional readings, and conversations with other Christian believers, I have come to understand that we cannot have a breakthrough in our lives without faith; the only way that we can increase our faith is by hearing from God. Hearing from God requires us to be purposeful and consistently set aside time to hear from God. Our faith then grows as we read His word and hear from Him. Many have had a challenging year, but I would like to offer encouragement. Remember who you are and what you can accomplish through faith in God and His promises to you. As long as we are still alive, it is never too late. God can provide the breakthrough we need and want, but our faith is required to activate our victory. What are you believing in God to do for your life? Keep the faith, walk in your works, and be patient to see what God can do
