BELIEVE – HAVE FAITH IN GOD

BELIEVE – HAVE FAITH IN GOD: FOR A NO WORD, MEANS A NO FAITH – AND A NO PLEASING OF GOD!

“. . . 2 And be not CONFORMED to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, will of God. 3 For I say, through THE GRACE GIVEN unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, ACCORDING as God hath DEALT to every man THE MEASURE OF FAITH” Romans 12:1-3.

We live in the days of divergence INFORMATION. And information generates what we BELIEVE and our BELIEVING trajectory, which invariably affects either our FAITH toward God or create in us the attitude of FATE on other things. And INFORMATION is available in almost every facets of our ways of doing life for various reasons; and majority of the time, the information that are there may lure people away from the TRUTH for the intended purpose for them not to HAVE FAITH IN GOD. And unfortunately, that’s the reason why the INFORMATION that are available in some sources are not TRANSFORMING and TRANSFORMATIVE for the good of doing life to lead one to godly living – toward God and FAITH in our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. Suffice to know that FAITH is not BELIEVE and BELIEVE is not FAITH though sometimes we use them interchangeably which doesn’t make spiritual scriptural context sense. FAITH is ACTIVE while BELIEVE is PASSIVE. And FAITH is acting correspondingly or accordingly on what you BELIEVE of and on God’s WORD and SAYINGS in SCRIPTURAL context.

“But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to [walk with God and] PLEASE Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] BELIEVE that God exists and that He REWARDS those who [EARNESTLY and DILIGENTLY] seek Him” Hebrews 11:6/AMP.

FAITH comes by the HEARING and CONTINUOUS HEARING of God’s WORD. Faith does not come by HAVING HEARD, for FAITH is NOW and it’s ACTIVE and not PASSIVE. It thus means if FAITH can COME or be activated by the CONTINUOUS HEARING of God’s WORD, it means also FAITH can GO or be inactive due to the lack of the REFRESHING of The WORD. Which then indicates that a NO WORD, means a NO FAITH, and a NO PLEASING OF GOD – for FAITH PLEASES God Hebrews 11:6; and the consequence of a NO FAITH is emptiness, noise making, fooolishness, stupidity, ignorance and God kept at a distance, for God can’t dwell outside His WORD.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

Therefore, do yourself a FAVOUR and get back into the CONTINUOUS MOOD and REALM of the HEARING of The WORD of God and not in stories or comments or analogy or make-believe of men and more, about the WORD. Your happiness and joy is within your reach. Do something about you, to ensure your FAITH works for your goodness, graciousness and gracefulness in everyway.

“As he spake these words, many BELIEVED on him. 31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which BELIEVED on him, If ye CONTINUE IN MY WORD, then are ye MY DISCIPLES indeed; 32 and ye shall KNOW THE TRUTH, and THE TRUTH shall make you FREE” John 8:30-32.

I plead to you today and even now to HAVE FAITH IN GOD, for He’s GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to all His PROMISES, toward our path in doing life and living godly, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“But without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the victory that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath DEALT to every man THE MEASURE OF FAITH” Romans 12:3.

“. . . 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:12-14, 22-24.

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a FAMINE in the land, not a FAMINE of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of HEARING THE WORDS of the Lord: 12 and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it. 13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst. 14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-sheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again” Amos 8:11-14.
