There are three things that abide on the earth: Love, Hope and Faith. A man that lives in these realms will always manifest the greatness of the father. God is love, when you live a life of love; you are revealing the nature of the father.
Life must be lived in hope and by hope.You have no future if hope is absent.The life line to a man’s future is his hope, his confident expectation of a better future. We don’t live for the past, Man uses the knowledge, wisdom, experience gathered yesterday to live for the present and expecting a better future.
Who you were yesterday is different from who you are today, your tomorrow is better than your yesterday and today because you are hopeful and you are working towards a better life.
What makes a man’s hope becomes a reality is his present faith, because you have faith in the present, you work now to secure what you are hoping for in the future.Faith is the strength of hope, when faith is absent, hope becomes fantasy.It is what you are doing today that makes you hope for a better tomorrow.
Faith is the strength for life.Every man has an element of what I call, ‘the ordinary faith’ which is a confident trust in things, in people, in systems and process. Every man has a belief system that helps him live in this world system.A man that doesn’t believe in anything has faith in unbelieving in anything.
You must understand that Man is a creature of faith. Man is a creature of belief, he must have confident on something or in people or in things.Some have faith in money, some have faith in material things, and some have faith in academics. They just believe that these things they have will enable them to live a glorious life, a life of peace, a life of prosperity and a life that is secured from external attacks.
Faith is life and life is faith.But the issue is, what kind of faith do you have? Nebuchanezzar puts his trust in his gods but Shedrack, Meshack and Abenego trusted in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and when the two faith scollided, the faith of the three Hebrews prevailed.
The faith that God is presenting to us through His word is, ‘the faith of Christ’, the audacity of the faith of Christ. Not the faith in money, academics or your government. The three Hebrew men had a bold faith in Jehovah God, at the end of the day they were not disappointed.Nebuchanezzar trusted in his gods and his war machines and they fail him at the end of the day. Dagon-the god the philistines trusted failed them, it submitted to the ark of the God of Israel when there was a collision.
The faith of Jesus Christ carries audacity; it has the capacity to live a glorious and supernatural life in this world.“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ…” (Galatians 2:16).
“My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons” (James 2:1)
The faith of our Lord Jesus Christ means our response to the word of God, when we hear it, we respond by receiving it and by acting on it.
As you act on what you have heard, we say, “You are living by faith”
Hebrews.11:1 – “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”.
The substance and evidence is the word of God that became flesh and was revealed to us.It is no longer something we hope for, it’s no longer something we have not seen, He has become the substance and the evidence of what we have seen, heard and handled.
In this dispensation of grace the substance has been revealed to us in the person of Jesus Christ. Even before the foundation of the earth, He was with the father but God revealed this substance to the men of old like Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in shadows.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not”. (John 1:1-6)
It was after light came that creation came into existence. All things were created by the light; nothing came to be without the light.Faith is the outflow of Christ’s life in a man’s life. When it flows out, demons feel it, men feel it, the world sees it, and it influences all things around it. It cannot be hidden.
Christ is the light that was hidden in the Old Testament but has been revealed to us, the light that is not subjected to human lights; it shines on its own. From it we have other lights. God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. He dwells in unapproachable light.
“And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live”. (Deuteronomy 8:3)
Man shall not live by bread alone but by the word that proceeds from the father, Jesus is the bread of life!
The greatest blessing you can receive in life is salvation, to know Jesus.Even before the foundation of the earth, God predestined you to be His, not by your will but His. The new birth brings you into the world of your father; it brings you to the place of righteousness, peace, joy, wisdom, power, prosperity and all good things you can think of in life and eternity.
The New birth gives you access to the kingdom inheritance. It activatesfaith in you through the word of God.
“…man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God…”
When you live by the word, everything about you will be healthy.The word gives you a balanced life, the life that is stress free and has the dominion power of God. It’s living the supernatural life in the natural!
Hearing God’s word is not through education, hearing God’s word is by the spirit. You can only hear God’s word through your spirit and not by your senses, by senses you listen but by the spirit, you receive, the Holy Spirit-infuses the word in you and quickens you.
You cannot live in this present world victoriously without faith, Faith programmes you to live the life of the father, the life of Jesus therefore stop operating by your senses, operate like Jesus! Stop allowing what you see or hear to determine how you live in this world, you’re not of this world, superimpose Gods word through faith over every situation, let the faith of Christ come alive in you then you will begin to experience the supernatural!
Confession:
I have faith; I have the faith of Christ.
I have the audacity of faith. My faith is audacious. My faith is bold.
