| It Is All About A Relationship With God. |
|
The only way to have more love is to have a closer relationship with God who is love. The only way to have more faith is to walk more closely with God and to listen to Him, obey Him, when He speaks.
When God speaks, He doesn't always use words: "And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known to him in a vision, and will speak to him in a dream. My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house. With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?" Numbers 12:6-8 Now, in our day, we find that God leads through the Bible, through the conscience, through members of the Body of Christ, and through many other means. “You know that when you were pagans, you were led astray to the mute [incapable of articulate speech] idols, however you were led. Therefore I want you to know that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.” (1 Corinthians 12:2-3) (some caveats about hearing God's Voice) Jesus wants that close relationship and He communicates with us through the Bible, through our conscience, through His creation, through a word of knowledge, through another Christian, and in many other ways. He is concerned about every part of our lives. Our minds were never created to be disconnected from God, but we were designed to flow in communion with Him at all times. When He speaks, faith comes. Faith comes by hearing and hearing comes by a word, literally an utterance, of God, faith. This type of mind exercise is a deception from Satan. God gives faith for those things that He desires." target="_blank" href="http://seekfind.net/If_You_Are_Interested_In_A_Closer_Look_At_Romans_1017_Look_Here.html">Romans 10:17. Faith gives us access to grace, Romans 5:2. Hebrews 12:27-29 tells us that it is through Grace that we are able to serve God. Romans 5:18-21 tells us that grace reigns through righteousness. Righteousness is by grace through faith. This righteousness is a free gift from God. That's what grace means, free gift. It is a free gift, and if we will yield our hands, feet, ears, eyes, and mind to this righteousness of God, then God will do His work through us, Romans 6:13. God will love through us. So, when someone is unlovable, we can pray that God would help us to allow Him to love that unlovable person through us. When I allow Christ to love through me... When I love and seek the Lord Jesus... When I listen to Him and yield myself to Him so that He can think, speak, and act through me... Then I can do all things through Christ who is my only strength. Without Him, I can do nothing. Author/Compiler Last updated: Jan, 2013
