-Understanding Faith
I Corinthians 2:4-5 NKJV
[4] And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, [5] THAT YOUR FAITH SHOULD NOT BE IN THE WISDOM OF MEN BUT IN THE POWER OF GOD.
However, based on Hebrews 11:1
-FAITH in God is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed or ownership papers) of the things we trusting in God for.
-Faith in God is the proof that we have the things we do not see and being fully convinced of their reality.
-Faith in God it to foreknow and accept as real fact the promises of God that are not yet manifested or revealed to the senses.
Romans 4:17-22 NKJV says this ;
[17] (as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did; [18] who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, “So shall your descendants be.” [19] And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. [20] He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, [21] and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. [22] And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.”
-Faith in God calls those things that are not as though they were.
-I didn’t say faith call those things that are as though they are not, (this is against scripture).
-Example: If a man is sick. His confession of faith shouldn’t be, “I’m not sick. I’m not sick.” His confession of faith should be, “I’m healed. I’m healed ” thus calling the things that are not as though they were.
Jude 1:20-21 NKJV
[20] But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, [21] keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
[24] Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
-Continue to keep you faith in the Lord.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to Jesus be all the glory. Amen!
