Understanding FAITH ~ The Bible Speaks

---

All things are possible for one who believes. For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! Yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins. For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,.

No one is established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous will never be moved. An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones.

1 John 5:13

The thoughts of the righteous are just; the counsels of the wicked are deceitful. The purpose in a man's heart is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out. Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you, delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech, who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil, men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways.

But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. But if the unbelieving partner separates, let it be so. In such cases the brother or sister is not enslaved. God has called you to peace.

He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and treated others with contempt: The Pharisee, standing by himself, prayed thus: I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.

The Lord looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.

I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold; I have come into deep waters, and the flood sweeps over me. I am weary with my crying out; my throat is parched.

I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in my people; no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping and the cry of distress. No more shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not fill out his days, for the young man shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed. They shall build houses and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them.

The cow and the bear shall graze; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder's den.

Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself the enemy of God" James 4: All knowledge that comes to the natural man is through the five senses: All of these senses connect us to the natural realm of this world.

Accepting the conditions which we see as fact, instead of what the Word says will hinder faith. Our physical body interprets things according to its senses; hunger, pain, fatigue cold, sight and hearing etc. Our soul, that is, our mind, will and emotions react to our environment and circumstances conditioned by our physical senses in the world around us. The perceptions of our mind take in knowledge of the Word but it can be just intellectual knowledge and not revelation knowledge which activates faith. Our spirit functions in the spiritual realm.

The faculties of our spirit are intuition i. Faith operates through our spirit's visionary capacity to enable revelation knowledge which unveils the mind of purposes of Yahweh God to us. The faculties of our spirit give us perception of spiritual realities! Failure to Confess the Word Faith not verbalised, is faith not activated.

When we receive the spirit of faith, we must also speak out the "word of faith", for it to have the creative power of God. We will have whatever we confess before men. Assurance which rests on the facts of the Word of God and is a work of the Spirit.
