#DailyDevotion Faith In Christ Jesus Formed The Actions Of The Saints
#DailyDevotion Faith In Christ Jesus Formed The Actions Of The Saints Heb. 11 30By faith the walls of Jericho fell when the people marched around them seven days. 31By faith the prostitute Rahab welcomed the spies as friends and didn't perish with her disobedient people. 32And what more should I say? There will not be time enough for me to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets, 33who by faith conquered kingdoms, did righteous works, received what was promised, shut the mouths of lions, 34put out raging fires, escaped death by the sword, found strength when weak, proved to be mighty in battle, put foreign armies to flight. 35Women received their dead back alive. Some were tortured; they refused to be freed, in order to rise to a better life. You might wonder what would marching around a walled city do? Well, normally, probably nothing. It might frighten the inhabitants. But the LORD gave directions to Joshua. He heard, believed and then did what he was told. The walls fell down as the LORD had promised and they, with the LORD fighting for them, took the city. The prostitute Rahab had heard all that the LORD had done for the Israelites in the past. She had heard how the LORD had given into their hands the kings Og and Shihon. She believed the LORD would give them this city as well. Because of this, she repented, that is she changed sides and put her trust in the God of Israel. So she welcomed the Israelite spies. They told her to put a scarlet thread in her window and she and her household would be saved. She believed, did as was told and would become the ancestor of our LORD Jesus Christ. The then recounts in quick fashion some of those memorable people from the Old Testament who acted in faith: Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthat, David, Samuel and the prophets. You would think he might have expanded a bit more on David. What did these people accomplish by faith in the promises of God? They "conquered kingdoms, did righteous works, received what was promised, shut the mouths of lions, 34put out raging fires, escaped death by the sword, found strength when weak, proved to be mighty in battle, put foreign armies to flight." When we are fearful about our circumstances we should look at these people and believe Jesus' promises. One, that He is with us always, even unto the end of the age. Secondly, the Father knows what we need and He will supply it at the appropriate time. He has given us the LORD'S Prayer, the contents therein is the will of God for you. He will answer this prayer with yes if you believe it. He recounts how some women had received their dead back (perhaps the widows of Elijah and Elisha, or perhaps someone Jesus had risen from the dead). Some were tortured. Many prophets were tortured as well as the apostles and many disciples of Jesus. They refused to be freed in order to rise to a better life. We too in the midst of many trials, tribulations and troubles need to remain faithful to God our Father and the LORD Jesus Christ. This isn't our best life. We too are looking to rise to a better life. We are looking to inherit the earth, God's righteousness, God Himself and all that He possesses being co-heirs with Christ. Since we have seen Jesus Christ risen from the dead and ascended to the right hand of the Father, how will we live our lives of faith? How will we face the troubles brought upon us? We shall face with courage and strength from the LORD. Anything in this life is only temporary and transitory. What Jesus has given us is eternal. Heavenly Father, give us Your Holy Spirit that we may have the same faith as ouf fathers so we may live strong and courageous in everything life dishes out at us so we may live to Your glory and honor. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Read the full article

The Testimony of Faith living
Faith is the carriage on which one receives the grace of God (His gift of eternal life) which is pulled by the saving work of Jesus Christ death on the cross and resurrection from the grave.
As Christians and Bible believing followers of God live by faith not sight.
“For we walk by faith, not sight” II Corinthians 5:7
But living by faith is never easy especially in the light of all that we see going on in the world today. It seems there is so much pain, suffering and anguish. Turn on your news and you hear of very little other than hate, as seen in crime, murder, wars, and all kinds of evil. Racism, bigotry,
Being a Christian certainly does not recuse you from facing hardships such as these. The Bible even promises that His people will face all kinds of trouble.
Living by faith in the face of trials, tribulations and suffering is never easy. But if we are to leave a testimony of faith so that others may be able to see the light of God in our lives, our living by faith will be three fold:
1. A person with a testimony of faith will follow Jesus despite knowing that trials, suffering, and pain may be right around the corner.
Be aware troubles are coming. Be aware and walk close to Jesus for He is our safety and refugee.
2. A person with a testimony of faith will follow Jesus even in the middle of their trial, suffering, and pain.
In the middle of your trouble call on Jesus He is your only hope and He will deliver you. Stick close to Jesus and allow Him to carry you and your heavy load. 3. A person with a testimony of faith will keep on following Jesus even when God has brought them out of the trial, suffering and pain that they had faced.
After a period of trouble is over, it is easy to become relaxed and complacent and trust in ourselves. But by faith we will keep on walking with God even when life does not seem to be dire. Most will call out to Jesus in a storm, but those that walk by faith will call out to Him and walk with Him in the calm.
Keep on for and with Jesus! Leave a Godly testimony for others of Godly Faith!

New Faith
Exodus 14:13-14 “And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” It happens to the best of us. We grow familiar with the activity, and it becomes a routine. Routine becomes…

"Abraham didn’t focus on his own impotence ... He plunged into the promise and came up strong, ready for God, sure that God would make good on what he had said." (Romans 4:19-21 MSG) Living on a consecrated life, knowing that the promise of God will come to past as long as we focus on what we need to discipline ourselves for. What a great message by Dr #ARBernard today! #e507 #dwellingdeep777 #faithliving #standingonthepromise

Faith Exercised
Genesis 22:1-2 “And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am. And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.” When called or commanded to do something by faith,…

Isaiah 54:10 “For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.”
“Sometimes the grandest revelations come through confrontation. Why did God bring the Israelites to the Red Sea? That they might have a confrontation with Him and discover His greatness and…
