Bishop Mike Okonkwo is not only a well respected man of God, he is also a very prolific writer that have gained respect amongst christians in Nigeria. Among the books he have written is the TREM Devotional.
He uses the devotional as a means to preach the gospel of christ to thousands worldwide, in yesterday’s topic he shared a very important message about grace and faith, he titled it You Already Have Both Grace And Faith.
In the message, he talked about the importance of grace and faith in the lives of christians. In the book of Galatians, God told us to live by faith and he can’t tell us to live by what we don’t have. We already have faith embedded in us because it’s only through faith and grace we were saved. He made a reference to this is in Ephesians 2:8: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God” (KJV).
He emphasized that we shouldn’t worry about going to places to get Faith, it is already in our system and was given to us the day we were born. He also said that the more Revelation you recieve from God, the more the devil attacks you.
