By Hearing
Romans 4:20 “Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God.”
Hebrews 11:1,5-6 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen… By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him:
for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 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.” (KJV, emphasis added).Death is a limitation. Enoch was translated that he should not see death and was not found. Why? Enoch was so in tune with God and the Spirit of God that his physical body could switch into the spiritual world. Enoch had this testimony that he pleased God. May your life please God in the Name of Jesus.
But without faith, it is impossible to please God. Without faith, it is impossible to be limitless, to be in sync, and to please this God. There is someone reading this right now, that because of the things that have happened in your life, you are putting a question mark on God. You just decided to read your devotional today. God will visit you in a mighty way in the Name of Jesus. Hebrews 11:6 “And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.” So, it takes faith to be in sync with God. It takes faith to be limitless. Without faith, you cannot be limitless, and you cannot be in sync with this God. It took faith for Peter to say to Jesus, “If it is you tell me to come” and Jesus said, “Come”. And it took faith for Peter to step out of the boat, step on water, and he was actually walking on water. Defying physics, defying every law, and walking on water.
Romans 10:17 “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” (KJV). In case you are beating yourself down because you do not think you have faith. But you can point to others who you believe are powerful men or women of faith. Listen, nobody has a copyright to faith. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. So, you need to put yourself in a place where you are hearing and hearing the Word of God. Hear it and hear God’s Word until something explodes inside you. Then you know you have it. Do not worry about the things that have not been revealed. A lot of things have been revealed and shared already. Listen to teachings, listen to the Word of God. Abraham must have repeated God’s promises to himself. And by so doing, his faith grew and was strengthened. What has God said to you?
Prayer: Father, if it was possible for Enoch then it is possible with me by Your Spirit. Show and teach me the things I must do to be in sync with you perpetually, in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen!
