FAITH IS A POWER HOUSE
Every Blessings, miracles, healing that has ever taken place, were all released from the Power House of Faith. Launched by Men who lived in the power House of Faith.
The best place to live, for every man or woman who desires the miraculous and be able to do the impossible is in the POWER HOUSE OF FAITH.
Even God lived in this same power house of Faith and was able to launch out the earth and all that is contained therein.
Jesus Christ lived in this same power House of Faith and Salvation was launched out by Christ on the platform of grace and all our kingdom inheritance with it.
The great Elders, who are great heroes of Faith, lived in it and all have good success story (Good report) Hebrew 11:2
WAY INTO THE POWER HOUSE OF FAITH
We want to look at the WAY into this Power House of Faith. Since everything we need are release from there. We read in Hebrews 4;16
"Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of Grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."
Take note of phrase: "HELP IN TIME OF NEED". Every of our needs comes from the Throne of grace.
The Throne of Grace is the Power House of Faith.
So how do we enter therein?
You asked.
You need boldness and courage to enter therein. What that means is, you have to be in right standing with God. It is your right standing that gives you courage and boldness to enter.
Many believers are unable to enter with boldness, because of so many factors.
And some that entered became frustrated because they are unable to bring anything out of this Power House of faith (The throne of grace) due to lack boldness. Even though every of their needs are kept intact there.
FACTORS RESPONSIBLE
Some of the factors that prevent believers from entering or after entering, and unable to bring out something are as follows:
- Unworthiness: They see themselves as filthy rags, who is not worthy to come to their father in His throne room of grace.
- Wrong teaching and believing the wrong things. Religion has done more damage to Christianity than anything else. A lot were thought that, been poor is humility. Because of this wrong teaching, a lot of Christian prefer to call themselves filth rags.And call themselves all kinds of names, like worms etc.
- Inferiority complex. Most Christian believe they are inferior and this keep them away from the Throne of grace.
- Their heart keeps condemning them. They go about with guilty conscience and this put them in a realm of a state of mind, that prevents God from answering their prayers. Because you can go about with guilty conscience and expect God to answer your prayers.
- satan the accuser of the brethren is constantly condemning them and they too accept it.
- Fear of evil that could befall them, due to uncleanness they are not even aware of.
- Many still see the throne of grace, as a throne of Judgement, Where God is a consuming fire that will consume anybody, irrespective of who they are. These set of christians are yet to be delivered from the knowledge they have, of God's dealings, under the Law dispensation (the old Testament).
- Wrong mindset that, it is only a pastor that can go to their Father on their behalf.
- Many have not forgiven themselves, not to talk of forgiving others. They still hold something against themselves and against others.
All these are because we do not know all that Christ has done for us on the platform of grace.
CHRIST DID IT ALL

You will remember while Jesus was on the cross. He said "IT IS FINISHED." (John19:30)
Which means; Mission accomplished and end to the Old covenant, making way for the New covenant.
You will also observe that, at that instant, the veil of the Temple was torn into two, from top to bottom, now making way for every one to enter the throne on the platform of grace.

It is no longer a THRONE of JUDGEMENT, but a THRONE of GRACE. That is why we can now boldly enter into it without fear, inferiority complex or condemnation. Because on the platform of His grace, we now have a right standing with God in Christ Jesus.
As we read:
"For he had made him to be sin for us who knew no sin, that we might be made, the righteousness of God in him (i.e. the righteousness of God in Christ)" (2Cor 5:21)
This put us in right standing with God in Christ, so that we can boldly enter the throne of Grace, which is the Power House of Faith and obtain Mercy. And once mercy is released.
Then every of our kingdom blessing and inheritance are released and delivered to us.
