God Has a Purpose for You
Growing In Faith - A Guide #3
Growing In Faith - A Guide
The bible
teaches us that without faith it is impossible to please God. Without faith, it
is impossible to be saved. Without faith, it’s impossible to have your prayer answered.
Without faith, there are no righteous miracles. God says if we do not have faith not to expect
anything from him.
It is
through faith that we grow by obedience, faith will cause you to obey because
you truly have faith in what the bible teaches.
Rebellion to God’s word and to what God wants us to do has shown that
you have chosen not to believe God.
If we truly believe
something we act upon it. If you believe
you believe something is going to hit you in the head, you will move out of its
way. Your moving is evidence that you
believe. If you believe what God says
then there will be evidence of that belief.
Romans 10: 10
[10] For with the heart, man believeth unto righteousness;
and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
When
you truly believe you will have righteous actions that come along with that
belief.
God
teaches us that just a little faith can cause great things to happen.
Luke
11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek,
and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
For
us to live of faith we must first accept Christ into our heart and life by
faith. By faith you will seek, you will knock
and you will ask. Once you have trusted
Christ, Christ lives within you and will help guide you in every choice you make.
Sometimes
it will be hard to do what’s right and by faith, you will do what God wants you
to do and God will get you through.
Life
is not easy and your faith will be tried and because you have the comforter,
you can communicate to God your struggle, your grief, and any doubt that you
may have. By faith, you will stay
faithful to him through both good and bad.
Good and bad have happened to every person, but a person of faith will continue
to trust God and obey him, through it all.
You grow by continuing by faith, to learn of God, to obey God, to praise
God, and to depend on God.
By
faith resist what is wrong and cling to our God our King. Do not go back to the slavery of Egypt. You are his child and you will never have
peace in your sin. Egypt is a picture
of sin, slavery, and hell. God has no
pleasure in those who turn back in their unbelief. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom. If you have already turned in
the wrong direction run back to God and repent. It may feel he’s far away, but
he has never left you. You left
him. By faith, return to God and he will
hold you to his heart. Just as a mother
or father forgives their little one.
Faith brings actions of faith; it is through or successes and our
failures that we grow in faith. God
shows us mercy as we believe and trust him.
I’m still learning every day. Our problems change and through each problem, there is a new learning time. Continue
trusting God and obeying him. Confess
your doubts, your fears, and keep your hand in the hand of God. Just as a small child wants to go off on his
own, is in danger, so are we when we let go of God the Father’s hand to go do
whatever we will. God will chasten us because we belong to him.
We need to fear him and turn back to him.
God says in…..
Revelations
3:19 - As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and
repent.
Read
your bible, grow in the truth and knowledge of the Lord. Stay close to your church family, go to
church, continue in prayer and resist the devil. Confess your sin on a daily basis, pray for
each other. We are all in a spiritual
battle. There is an old song that says, “Keep
your hand in the hand of the man that calms the sea.” If you continue by faith in the things of
God, you will know peace and you will know joy.
