“Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message and the message is heard through the word about Christ” Romans 10:17.
A lot of people want to have power of faith and of positive thoughts, but they do not know how that faith comes and most people do just the opposite and run away from faith. They focus their attention on the wrong stuff. You have to connect to the source that transmits faith and belief into your mind and turn away from the source that raises doubts, fears and similar things.
People who are slaves of media will never have that power that faith gives, because media sows the negative stuff into people’s minds and hearts. Read the materials that give you peace, confidence and vision for the future and try to avoid those that give the opposite. There is a lot of motivational and inspirational material around which is much better than the stuff that the ‘grey mass’ (crowd) might offer you. Read things that make you stronger. I would strongly recommend the Bible. It is full of that positive inspiration I am talking about. And it will never develop wishful thinking in you. It will make you a positive realist. That’s what we want.
