FAITH - ABRAHAM FAITHI need to be like Abraham, not to be bothered by facts and truths like Thomas, but simply by only the promises of God that He had set for my life. Abraham did not look at what he had that's impossible, but he trusted God who is possible. Indeed God is faithful and His word never fail.
Do I have that faith today, to just hold onto the promises of God that was set just for me?I DON'T KNOW!I remembered a Pastor once said to me,
"Daphne, you may not a height of 5 feet, but you do own a faith of 5 feet!" =]]
Real faith is built on the spiritual truths of God’s promises.Do I have that REAL FAITH now?While we don’t deny the problems, pain and other negative symptoms of life (for they may be very real), we look beyond them to God’s Word. Real faith says,
"If God says it is so, it is so!"
Period.Head-faith is just an intellectual acceptance, or mental assent, of certain facts and doctrines. That is not true Bible faith. It won’t produce results or changes in the lives of people. But heart-faith will always produce a definite change in people.
Romans 10:10 says, "For with the heart one believes unto righteousness."
Grant me that FAITH to just trust in Your Word.
PERIOD.
