Faith

Today I want to talk about faith.

 

But without faith, it is impossible to please Him . . .

Hebrews 11:6

Now the just shall live by faith . . .

Hebrews 10:38

 

Over the years, I have discovered that there are a lot of Christians who do not understand what it means to live by faith. It simply means that you believe what God says in His Word more than anything else (Hebrews 11:1). It is making God’s Word the final authority in your life.

 

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

Romans 10:17

 

The more you immerse yourself in the Word, the more confident you will become that His promises will come to pass in your life. We are talking about you getting to the place where you are receiving God’s best. The more time that you spend in the Word and see what His best is (and that He wants you to have it), then the more confidence you will have that it will come to pass in your life.

The Apostle Paul refers to faith as a law.

. . . by the law of faith . . . Romans 3:27

 

The law of faith says that if you can believe for God’s best in your life, and not give up, then it will become a reality. What you see on the inside, through the eye of faith, will become more real than what you see on the outside. The more time you spend in the Word reading about God’s best, the higher your expectation will be to have it in your life.

 

You will always attract into your life what you expect. If you expect to fail, then you will fail. If you expect your life to always stay the same, then it will. If you expect to go broke, then you will. But at the same time, if you expect to succeed, you will. If you expect to receive God’s best, then you will. Jesus said it this way: According to your faith be it unto you (Matthew 9:29).

 

Today's Confession: “I will have in my life whatever I expect. According to MY faith, it will be done!”
