Living By Faith. 

 

Habakkuk 2:4 4 “See, the enemy is puffed up;

his desires are not upright—

but the righteous person will live by his faithfulness —

Romans 1:16-17 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to believers: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed —a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”

Hebrews 11:1-3 1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the ancients were commended for.

3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

 

There is nothing more important in our arsenal of beliefs than faith. Everything we are and all that we have is grounded in faith.

 

So what happens when life so overwhelms us that our faith begins to diminish? How do we restore our faith that God has a plan and that we are living in the center of His will?

 

We must return to the basics: pray that the Holy Spirit will remind us of the bedrock of our faith, that Jesus completed His redemptive work on Calvary. If you keep a prayer journal, find instances where God has answered your prayers. And finally read every scripture you can find on faith, then read them out loud, because faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God . Romans 10:17. To

 

I am finishing with an old song of faith.  May we keep ourselves built up in our most high faith as we anticipate the great things God is doing.

 

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. . Amen

 

Living by Faith, by RE Winsett

1 I care not today what the morrow may bring,
If shadow or sunshine or rain,
The Lord I know ruleth o’er everything,
And all of my worry is vain.

Refrain:
Living by faith in Jesus above,
Trusting, confiding in His great love;
From all harm safe in His sheltering arm,
I’m living by faith and feel no alarm.
