GOD TREASURES OUR FAITH βοΈπ
"FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things yet unseen." (Hebrews 11:1)
Our faith pleases God and is more precious to Him than gold. Faith is not a feeling. It is not an emotion. We need to trust God to train us to walk in faith. Now I know God's ways are a mystery. But we must discern what kind of faith God has imparted to us. Is it fledging or mountain moving faith? Remember, mustard-sized faith is all we need. But faith will not grow without active, persistent use.
I do not understand why some receive miraculous healing on this side of heaven while othes do not. I refuse to believe they missed a step or lacked sufficient faith. God gifts us with faith. We must Stewart it, but God is far more gracious with us than we are with ourselves. But then, what is the point of faith in His promises? Consider, life on earth is short, and eternity is forever. If we do not receive the promise in this life. It's because the answer may be too glorious for earth to contain. In Hebrews 11:36 those heros in the Hall of Faith who died before receiving the promise...."the world was not worhy of them."
As a believer, Christ is in us, which means He has imparted a measure of faith in us. Are we responding to the promises of God? God will show us what He has given us faith for and what promises to stand on. He will also show us how to apply that faith practically to our current situation.
In the challenges and battles we face ahead. God can show us the promises for the taking. We need to reclaim the territory God has promised us. God not only treasures us for who we are, but also sees us for who we can become. Every blessing, every battle in our life is an invitation to engage with God so He can transform us and redeem our story.
