“Consequently, faith
comes from hearing the message,
and the message is
heard through the word about Christ.”
Romans 10:17
Yesterday we said
that faith is when you choose to believe God and by acting out that belief you
establish your life upon what God has said!
There is a similar
principle which we should mention but is certainly not something we want to
build our lives upon.
It is this:
Unbelief is when you
choose to believe satan and by acting on that belief you establish your life
based on what satan has said.
I think we sometimes discount
this possibility in our lives because we just can’t imagine ourselves believing
satan.
We even become
offended at the mere suggestion of it but the bible is filled with examples
from Genesis to Revelation; from the Garden of Eden to the Last Days.
The devil even had
the arrogance to attempt to deceive the Word
made flesh (Jesus)
by quoting the Word
to Him when he tempted Him in the wilderness.
So don’t think it can’t/won’t
happen to you!
The devil wants to
steal your faith.
If he can accomplish that,
he knows he has another powerless saint.
But praise God, He
has given us His Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit makes the Word of God come
alive in us.
As that happens our
faith in God grows.
The powerless saint
becomes a powerful saint!
Which one are you?
