Good morning, disciples of the Lord!
Hebrews 11:1 (Amplified) says,
- 11 Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].
Everything in the life of a believer depends on our believing God’s Word. We are saved because God’s Word tells us so, not because we “feel” saved.
Did you know that Romans 14:23 states,
- Everything that is not of faith is sin.
Faith in God, which is having faith in what He says in His Word, is what makes us “believers”. We choose to believe what God says as opposed to what the world says. Sometimes this can be hard, because everything in us is screaming to the contrary. But that’s okay, because as we continue to renew our minds to the Word of God, we will yield more and more and life will take on a new peace we never knew existed.
Jesus said,
- 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
I exhort you to BELIEVE GOD’S WORD above everything else. He will lead you into victory every day!
Victoriously yours,
