Living By Faith
God's will is that we live by faith--not the blind leap of the foolish or the blank check of the misinformed, but assurance that what God said, He will do.
Faith isn't walking around blind, waiting for providence to bump into you. Faith is your response to the promises of God.
God says, "I will lead you." Faith responds. "I will follow." God says, "I will feed you." Faith says, "I will eat." God says, "I will meet your need." Faith says, "It is done."
Hebrews 11:1,2 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report.
Faith calms our fears, cushions our falls, and confirms our future.
The Christian who determnes to truly live by faith in God will never be disappointed. There will be a deep settled assurance that The Lord is in absolute control of all situations.
