Good Morning
from T.O.D.A.Y. Ministries!
I am so blessed by all of these replies telling me that
you are (in your words) " Getting it ". That lets me know
that some of you are taking hold of these principals that allow The Lord to
actually be involved in what you are doing. Jesus said to "HOLD
FAST" to what you have. So let's continue… and then you will
have some more revelation to "HOLD FAST" to.
Today we are going to look
at "FAITH vs. FEAR". We have already
established the fact that these two spiritual forces oppose each other.
You cannot operate in fear and faith at the same time. It is
impossible. We were created to live by faith.... The Word of God says,
"The just shall LIVE by faith". That is the reason that
God did not give us a spirit of fear. Can you see this? We
have not been given a "spirit" of fear.
There has been so much
teaching on the subject of faith.
Why? I believe it is because too
many people do not really understand what faith is. We tend to
complicate the simple principals of God.
Do this: every time you see
the word "faith" in your Bible, use the word "trust".
For example, Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is...Read it this
way: "Now trusting God is...(I encourage you to read this scripture,
if you are not familiar with it, in order to understand what is being said
here). Bottom line.... Faith is simply trusting God!
A little child jumps off the porch into his Daddy's arms because he trusts his
Daddy to catch him.
The only way we can receive anything from God, including His help and
involvement in our lives, is by simply trusting Him to do what we ask Him
to do (if it is something that He has said in His Word that He would do).
I encourage you today to ASK The Lord for His help in every thing that concerns
you and I can assure you that you will find yourself safe in
"His Loving Arms"!
Faith waits for God to keep
His Word. Fear refuses to wait and decides to "make something
happen" just in case God doesn't come through. In other words, we decide to "help God out".
Please remember this: God does not need our help...We need His!!
Tomorrow I will be giving you
related scriptures from The Word of God pertaining to " Getting God
involved in what you're doing".
Have a Blessed
Day!!
In His Love, Luanne
