FAITH CAPSULE: By faith is to fear God and know the truth.
John 14
Faith is to fear God and be free by living life for the glory of God.
Word of God is the source of God and documents every reason to know God with fear.
God is an awesome God, to fear God is to love Him for His goodness and mercy.
Get to know God, fear Him, and be FREE.
The word of God is God. John 1:1 testifies, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Many, the majority of acclaimed believers claim to KNOW ABOUT the word of God, quotes the word of God, or sings the word of God but not FREE.
The word of Jesus to the Jews that believed in His time also speaks to acclaim believers of today, “Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:31-32)
Are you an acclaim believer that is free by the truth?
Can you search for yourself if you KNOW ABOUT God or you KNOW God?
If you are one that quotes or sings word of God with no evidence of the word of God in your way of life, you are the testimony of one that only KNOWS ABOUT God but not KNOWS God.
Knowing about the word of God is not knowing God, not knowing the TRUTH.
Jesus is the TRUTH of God as John 14:6 states, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
It is important to KNOW the truth, the word of God, for one to be free in this wicked world.
Knowing the truth is the evidence of having faith.
Do you have faith?
Have faith, to become faithful as one that is rooted in KNOWING the WORD of God.
The source of having FAITH, to become faithful is hearing and hearing by the Word of God. One with a desire to live life by the Word of God must be in a position to be seeking God in His word. Romans 10:17 declares, “…faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” To be hearing and hearing the word of God is the coming of faith, but when there is no hearing, and hearing faith will depart from one.
Are you hearing, and hearing by the word of God to KNOW GOD and be FAITHFUL?
DESCRIBING FAITH
The source of FAITH is the living WORD of God.
Faith is the living power that produces a living proof in the life of one that is faithful.
Faith is a spiritual power but not a philosophy or ideology.
Jesus said, “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.” (John 6:63)
Have faith by giving yourself to the word of God, fear God, and be FREE in this wicked world.
Prayer for today: Ask that God will enable you to give yourself to His word.
