Faith, the ‘Currency’ of Heaven

“And Jesus answering saith to them, `Have faith of God;”
Mark 11:22
(Young’s Literal Translation)
 
One of the identifying characteristics of any nation or kingdom on earth is their currency.
Whether Dollars, Francs, Lire or Yuan’s if you are going to do business in that nation you will have to use the currency that is accepted there.
Heaven has a ‘currency’ too.
Do you know what it is?
Faith!
Faith has ‘purchasing power’ in heaven.
It brings heaven down to earth.
No, I don’t mean Cadillac’s, fat bank accounts or the latest and greatest self-indulgent ‘toys’.
Instead it brings those things which have value in heaven.
Faith speaks peace in the midst of chaos.
Faith heals what no doctor can.
Faith restores a broken marriage.
Faith brings redemption and hope.
Faith moves the hand of God.  
Why?
Hebrews 11:6 tells us:
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
Faith, the currency of heaven, accomplishes this!
A man or woman of faith is rich with the resources of heaven.
Are you born-again through faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior?
You have the faith of God within you.
Now, let’s see how it grows!
