It paves the way for the presence and anointing of God. The relationship between faith and God\u2019s power is simple: if one is not there, you won\u2019t \ufb01nd the other either. But the reverse is true as well.<\/p>\n
God is ready and willing to work in miraculous ways wherever faith resides. Had the people of Nazareth not doubted Christ, the verse could just as easily have read, \u201cJesus did many miracles there because of their great faith.\u201d What a di\ufb00erence faith makes! If you want your life to be a place where God\u2019s power resides, then you want him to \ufb01nd faith residing in you.<\/p>\n
