Are You Producing the Faith God Expects?

“A little faith can take you to Heaven, but an abundance of faith can bring Heaven right to you!”

"For we walk by faith, not by sight." - 2 Corinthians 5:7

Faith alone in Christ alone brings you salvation. However, when you apply working faith into your everyday life by claiming God’s promises, studying His Word, applying His Truth, living each day for Him and not for yourself, spreading the Gospel message of Christ, praying fervently, loving others by serving them before yourself. It is at these times in which you are rooted in the daily application faith of God’s Truth which will bring an abundance of joy to your life.

It has been said, “sin will keep you from God’s Word or God’s Word will keep you from sin.” This means if you are rooted in God’s promises and truth, then you will have no time to be rooted into negativity, meaningless or trivial problems, or entangled with sin which can cause you pain and discouragement.

"Faith receives at the level it believes!"

Heroes of the Bible not only produced the faith in Christ to bring them salvation, but they also produced the working faith of claiming God’s promises and applying His truth to their lives. Rewards by God come to those who have working faith.

“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

“Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.” – 1 Thessalonians 4:1

“Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.” – James 2:21-23

Abraham was made righteous by believing the promise of the coming Messiah Jesus. However, he was also called the friend of God because he had working faith rooted in God’s promises. This is faith made perfect or whole as it is intended to be for every believer in Christ. Don’t you want to be considered a friend of God like Abraham was?

“But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.” – James 1:25

“So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.” – James 2:12

Praise God for His Word and praise God that He allows us to serve Him!!
