After I gave my life to Christ, I had a Sunday School teacher, Pastor Aderibigbe, whom God used to teach me about faith. He said that if a boy stands on a storey building and his father, who is on the ground floor, tells him to jump down, the boy will jump. This is because the child has absolute trust in his father and believes that he will catch him when he jumps. This analogy further illustrates what Jesus said in our Bible reading today about becoming like little children. If a child can have so much faith in an ordinary human being, how much more in God? From that day on, I have been "jumping", and my Father has never allowed me to hit the ground. I recall a time when I was working as a teacher at a school in Okeigbo, a town in Ondo State, Nigeria. The school took students on an excursion to some places in the Eastern part of Nigeria, and one of the places we visited was the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. We arrived there on a Sunday in time for lunch. We were allowed to enter the dining hall, even though we were not served any food. I looked at the meal each student was served – jollof rice and a half-chicken. I was stunned; a whole chicken had been cut into two pieces, and each student was given one. At that time, the university was only two years old, so all its buildings were shiny and looked very beautiful. I came out of the dining hall, bent down, and picked up a pebble. Then, I said, "Next year, I will come and drop this pebble as a student." That was just an act of faith by a young man. The following year, I became a student at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. God saw the faith of a child who picked up a pebble in faith, and He honoured my faith. My Father in the Lord, Pa Josiah Akindayomi, always taught us that if you say you have faith, then you should act in accordance with your faith. Just as I picked up a pebble then, I want you to do something or declare words today that truly show you believe that God will give you the miracle you are asking Him for. As long as what you are asking for is in accordance with God's will, just jump and trust Him to catch you.
