Living By Faith

"So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ."

ROMANS 10:17

The Lord asks for your faith in Jesus and the Word - The Gospel. The Lord asks for continual and eternal dependence on him - He asks because everything else is fading away - the only truth is Jesus.

God is greater than all. He places you where he wants you to be. This is the specific truth of all who give their life to Jesus and surrender to his will every single day. There is no more worry - only truth in Jesus.

Faith is to be worked out - exercised in ordinary daily life. It can be difficult to give a specific answer for what God has you doing within a given day. We are to surrender and through faith believe that Jesus has a perfect plan for the day. And through our surrender - his Holy Spirit will work through us for another's behalf - the task prepared by the Lord.

Focus only on the will of the Lord in you - he is a living God that works and dwells in us through faith and obedience -speaking - asking - teaching - guiding - loving. Surrender daily to Christ - and concentrate on his will in you. Your mind and body are designed and created by God - he knows how you work and why you are born. Give to the Lord what is his - and let the truth reside in you.

“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” James 2:26

“For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.” Romans 12:3

“And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:1-2

“And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.” Ezekiel 36:26-27
