INTRODUCTION:
Evidence is the undeniable proof of God's work in your life. It is the manifestation of His promises that silences doubt and glorifies His name. When God intervenes in a situation, He leaves you with tangible results that serve as a testament to His power. Today, we will explore how to carry your evidence in faith, how to receive it, and how to make it known to the world.
1. FAITH IS THE FOUNDATION OF YOUR EVIDENCE
a) Faith Brings Substance
Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).
b) Evidence Requires Belief
Without faith, it is impossible to please God or carry His evidence (Hebrews 11:6).
c) God Rewards Faith
Those who trust Him will see His promises fulfilled (Jeremiah 29:11).
d) Faith Activates the Supernatural
Faith opens the door to miracles and undeniable proofs (Mark 9:23).
e) Biblical Example: Thomas’s Encounter with Jesus.
Thomas believed only when he saw the evidence of Christ’s resurrection (John 20:27-28).
2. PRAYER IS THE KEY TO MANIFESTING EVIDENCE
a) Persistence in Prayer
Like Elijah, pray until the evidence of God's promise appears (1 Kings 18:41-45).
b) Prayer Commands Results
Prayer releases heaven’s resources to establish God’s will on earth (Matthew 7:7).
c) The Power of Agreement
Corporate prayer creates breakthroughs and tangible evidence (Acts 12:5-11).
d) Fasting and Prayer Produce Results
When prayer is combined with fasting, the supernatural is unleashed (Isaiah 58:6-9).
e) Biblical Example: Hannah’s Prayer
Hannah’s persistent prayer brought Samuel, her evidence of answered prayer (1 Samuel 1:10-20).
3. DIVINE INSTRUCTION LEADS TO EVIDENCE
a) Obedience Unlocks Blessings
Obeying God’s instructions positions you for miraculous evidence (Deuteronomy 28:1-2).
b) Faithful Stewardship
God blesses those who are faithful with what they have (Luke 16:10).
c) Divine Direction
Following God’s guidance leads to visible results (Proverbs 3:5-6).
d) Obedience Requires Sacrifice
Sometimes, carrying your evidence requires stepping out of your comfort zone (Genesis 22:9-14).
e) Biblical Example: Peter and the Great Catch.
At Jesus’ instruction, Peter let down his nets and received a miraculous catch (Luke 5:4-6).
4. PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING SECURE YOUR EVIDENCE
a) Praise Activates Breakthroughs
Praising God in advance shows faith and brings results (2 Chronicles 20:21-22).
b) Thanksgiving Multiplies Evidence
Jesus gave thanks, and the little multiplied to meet the need (John 6:11-13).
c) Praise in the Midst of Trials
Praising God during challenges brings evidence of His faithfulness (Acts 16:25-26).
d) Testimonies Strengthen Faith
Sharing your evidence builds faith in others (Psalm 105:1-5).
e) Biblical Example: Paul and Silas
Their praise in prison brought an earthquake that became evidence of God’s power (Acts 16:25-26).
5. YOUR EVIDENCE GLORIFIES GOD
a) Evidence Silences the Enemy
God’s evidence in your life shuts the mouths of critics (Psalm 126:2).
b) Evidence Confirms God’s Covenant
God’s faithfulness to His promises brings Him glory (Exodus 19:5).
c) Evidence Draws Others to Christ
Your testimony becomes a tool for evangelism (John 4:39).
d) Evidence Establishes Dominion
Evidence shows that you are a child of God with authority (Isaiah 8:18).
e) Biblical Example: David and Goliath’s Sword
David carried the sword of Goliath as evidence of God’s victory (1 Samuel 17:51).
CONCLUSION:
God desires that His children carry undeniable evidence of His power, faithfulness, and promises. Faith, prayer, obedience, and praise are keys to unlocking this evidence. When you carry your evidence, it serves as proof of God’s presence in your life and brings glory to His name.
