What do you believe is the definition of contentment in the Lord? Contentment with your circumstances?
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I
have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation,
whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
Phillipians 4:11-13 Where do contentment and faith collide?
And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen. And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.”
Matthew 21:21-22 How do miracles & healing work their way into contentment?
Is
anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and
let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And
the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will
raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Therefore,
confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you
may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it
is working.
James 5:14-16
