Increase Our Faith (BC 24; Luke 17:5-10)

Reformed & Expository Preaching

Mr. Sen Zorilla exhorts us this evening from Luke 17:5-10.

The disciples ask Jesus to increase their faith. In response, Jesus tells them that even a small amount of faith, as small as a mustard seed, can achieve great things, such as uprooting a mulberry tree and planting it in the sea.

This passage emphasizes that faith takes hold of Christ’s victorious power. As we are united to Christ we seek to live in humble service to God and grow in comprehending that obedience to God is not about earning merit but fulfilling one’s duty in Christ’s power.
