How does one exercise faith and obtain results? Christianity
is a walk of faith because the just shall live by faith, (Romans 1:17). And it
is impossible to please or attract God without faith, (Hebrews 11:6).
Therefore, it is inevitably important that you learn how to walk in faith if
you are to live a victorious christian life.
So then faith comes by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God – Romans 10:17 (NKJV)
So Jesus answered and said to them,
“Have faith in God” – Mark 11:22 (NKJV)
(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;
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.” 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. He did not
waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith,
giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was
also able to perform – Romans 4:17-21 (NKJV)
Many people struggle with the issue of
walking in faith. I remember desperately asking my husband some years back “how
does one exercise faith and obtain results?”
You wonder what else to be done, especially when you really need divine
intervention.
A walk in faith is acting on God’s word:
His promises as recorded in the bible and His given rhema. The word of God is
the foundation for faith. Without the word of God in you, it is impossible to
put your faith to work. It is not enough to know the scriptures, they need to
come alive in you. You need to believe that God means what He says and that
they will SURELY work for you. God cannot lie, (Titus 1:2)
It all starts with your revelation and
understanding of who God is and what He is capable of doing. You must believe
that He is and is a rewarder of those who diigently seek Him, (Hebrews 11:6). God
is His word, (John 1:1). You cannot separate God from His word. He is the
almighty God, the Alpha and the Omega and He works by His word. He only listens
for faith in His word and faith comes only by hearing the word of God. Read more...
