Daily Devotion: Faith And The Word
SCRIPTURE: But what saith it? The word is nigh thee,”even in thy mouth, and in thy heart”: that is,”the word of faith, which we preach. Romans 10″:8.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You get treasure through pressure. You get revelation by desperation.
The Scripture reveals that faith is essential to the life and existence of the child of God. Faith is the life-wire of the child of God. That is why the just shall live by faith (Habakkuk 2:4). This means,”without faith, it is possible for the just to die. So, faith is essential to the life of the just and the Word is essential to faith.
Now, how does the word influence or affect faith?
The Word of God unveils and reveals the promise of God for the child of God and that impacts faith.
The Word of God sheds light on your right, and light of right impacts might for fight. Where you lack the light of your right, you lack the might for the fight.
And how do you access the word?
1. Through a heart of meekness. (Psalm 25″:9).
The meek will He guide in judgment and the meek will He teach His way. Meekness is teachability. Meekness is a life that is devoid of arrogance and pride. It is an admission of ignorance so you can be taught.
2. Through the Ministry of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:9-10).
God reveals things to us by His Spirit. The Spirit searches all things,”even the deep things of God. The Spirit of God makes a person a man or a woman of deep insight.
3. Through the heart of desperation (Hosea 6″:3).
You shall know if you follow on to know. Those who put pressure on the Word get treasure from the Word (Luke 5:1-3). You get treasure through pressure; you get revelation by desperation in Jesus’ Name.
Beloved,”receive the grace and hunger for the Word in order to live in the realm of faith.
REMEMBER THIS”: You get treasure through pressure; you get revelation by desperation.
