2 vital ingredients to make your faith FAITH

Today we will be discussing on the two vital/central ingredients for faith. Faith without these ingredients is faith that amounts to nothing (comes to naught).

Ingredient one:  LOVE (AGAPE)

Galatians 5:6 says,
"For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love."

Faith that worketh by love is the God kind of faith for God is love.

1 Corinthians 13: 2
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and
though I have ALL FAITH, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity [the God-kind of love], I am nothing.

When we talk about LOVE, we mean agape, there are four types of love (friendship, erotic, etc), but the love we are talking about is AGAPE, KJV Version of the bible uses CHARITY for the word AGAPE. AGAPE is God kind of LOVE – a selfless love, love that does not fail (stop)

1 Corinthians 13 speaks in details about AGAPE/CHARITY.

Love is greater than faith. It takes love to make faith FAITH.

Ingredient two:  HOPE

Second, faith won't work without hope. The New English translation of Hebrews 11:1 says, "Faith gives substance to our hopes." You have to hope for something before your faith can give confidence (substance) to it. So faith is also dependent on hope.

HEBREWS 11:1
Now FAITH is the confidence (substance) of things HOPED FOR, the evidence of things not seen.

You see, if you don't hope for anything, your faith can't work because it has no goal or object to believe God for.

Some have said, “Well, I’m just waiting on God or I’m believing God.” Some of those people have been waiting for years, and they haven’t done anything. They are not really waiting on God—God has been waiting on them. They have made a decision by doing nothing.

Therefore, faith can't work without hope.

Since hope is vital for faith,  Where can we get hope:

You can always go to the Word of God and get some hope (God’s promises). People think we only get spiritual hope from the bible but not physical or financial hope. This is not true, Regardless of whether it is physical, financial, or spiritual, The bible is there for us. When your situation seems to be hopeless, go to the Word of God. God’s Word is hope for you.

God cannot lie...

God’s Word cannot waver

The Veracity of God’s Word

(Num 23:19 [KJV])
God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?


Brethren, God’s Word is always true and does not change. It is absolute not relative. God’s word does not change with time, it is timeless. God’s Word can never fail. He can’t say one thing and mean or do another. God is not a politician that will play pranks with his Word. You can rely on God’s Word. It is infallible.

By two immutable things God cannot lie.

(Heb 6:18 [KJV])
That by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:


Are you downcast (in a bitter state/depressed mood) because a breakthrough that you have been praying for has not yet come to pass? Perhaps it has taken some time now (days, weeks or even month) and you are asking, "How will I know that I will obtain it?" Abraham faced the same situation and God guaranteed him by covenant (Gen 15:8-21), so that by two immutable things; The ‘INFALIBILITY OF HIS WORD (IMMUTABILITY OF HIS COUNSEL)’ and ‘THE OATH’ God cannot lie.

My brethren, God has bound Himself to a covenant, an irreversible guarantee of His blessings and provision in your life, and it is all for our benefit. THE BREAKTHROUGH YOU ARE WAITING FOR IS GUARANTEED BY AN OATH YOU NEED NOT BE DISCOURAGED!

By Patience inherit the promise

(Heb 6:15 [KJV])
And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.


Patience cannot be left out in or Work with God. God is a patient God so we his sons should learn from our father. Patience is one of the fruit of the spirit, It is a virtue. We leave in a world where everyone wants it fast (fast foods, fast everything) but Patience is a key to receiving the promise of God in our lives.

(Heb 10:35-36 [KJV])

Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.  FOR YE HAVE NEED OF PATIENCE, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

Delay is not denial; Let us have patience in our walk with God.

Who is an infidel?

Who is an INFIDEL?    KNOWING IT IS TO BELIEVE-IT

This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministry.

The man who walks with God always gets to his destination.

If you have a pulse you have a purpose.

The Muslim religion is the fastest
growing religion per capita in the
United States, especially in the
minority races!!

Last month I attended my annual
training session that's required for
maintaining my state prison security clearance.

During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers
representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths,
who each explained their beliefs.

I was particularly interested in what the Islamic had to say.
The Muslim gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.

After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.
When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Muslim and asked:

'Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the
infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven.

If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?'

There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation,
he replied, 'Non-believers!'

I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of
Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven.

Is that correct?'

The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.'

He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.'

I then stated, 'Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine The Pope commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!'

The Muslim was speechless!

I continued, 'I also have a problem with being your friend when you and your
brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question:

Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to
heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?'

 You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame.

Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with my way of dealing with the Islamic Imam,
and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.

In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. to elect the President!

I think everyone in the WORLD!!! should be required to read this,
but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely
publicized, unless each of us sends it on! This is your chance
to make a difference...

Please, for Christ's sake, send it on!

Confront your Goliath (Giant)

And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.

And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field.

Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give you into our hands.

1 Samuel 17:42-47

The Amplified Bible says that Goliath “scorned and despised him”, for he was but an adolescent, with a healthy reddish color and a fair face (vs 42). He saw it as an insult and cursed David, promising to feed his carcass (corpse) to animals. But, David didn't run away from Goliath just because he was huge (a Giant), nor because of his threats; he ran toward him. He had a winning attitude

David didn't care if he was small. He didn't care if he didn't have an AK 47 or a sophisticated machine gun to whip a giant. Instead, he responded to the giant's threats with WORDS OF CONFIDENCE IN GOD. "This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand and I will smite thee..." (vs. 46). Notice that David wasn't confident in his own ability but in the ability of the God he served. That's how we should be!

It does not matter how small, insignificant or incapable we think we are, God is capable and big enough to fight all our giants and give us the victory. We just have to be courageous to trust Him like David and speak the end result with heart faith.

The Bible said that David hurled his slingshot and with a stone hit Goliath in the one spot that was unprotected—his head. Goliath's big body fell to the ground, and  david ran towards him and cutoff his (Goliath’s) head with his (Goliath’s) own sword.

There are a lot of Goliaths (Giants) today

If you are suffering from a particular sickness, disease, a besetting sin, guilt, fears, failure, financial challenges, generational curse, marital/family challenges etc; this is also a Giant (Goliath).

It's time to say to that challenge! “This day you shall bow to me in Jesus Name."

Brethren, Victory is yours, the battle is the Lord’s – confront your Giant by the power of God.

GOD CARES

 

Luke 12:6-7

 "Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? And not one of them is forgotten

before God.  But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore;

you are of more value than many sparrows.

God cares for the safety of his creation- man, beast and flowers etc (Matt 6:26, etc.)

God sees the sparrow fall to the ground, and God sees when a hair falls from the head of one of His children. When He protects His own, He protects them down to the individual hairs (Luke 21:18). There is no need for us to fear when God is exercising such wonderful care over us.

It did not cost much to purchase sparrows in the market. If we compare these verses with Luke 12:6, we discover that sparrows were so cheap that the dealer threw in an extra one! Yet the Father knows when a sparrow falls to the ground; and the Father is there. To God, we are of greater value than many sparrows.

Job 38:41
He giveth (his food) to the young ravens which cry" (Ps 147:9).
   
Matt 6:30 - TLB

And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, won't he more surely care for you, O men of little faith?

God cares for man even for the very little details of our lives.

Some people erroneously believe that God is too busy taking care of other ‘big and important matters’ than to be interested in the little problems they are facing.

God said in Luke 21:18, Even the hairs of our head are numbered - not "counted" as in a total, but numbered individually!

It may be a quarrel with a friend, your phone’s problem, your lack of body-cream, or the small pimples on your face. No matter how trivial it sounds, if it troubles you, then God wants to take care of it!

 Why Do Christians Suffer If God Cares for Us?

But, some say, if God cares for us, why are we persecuted and put to death?

No, God does not wish us to be in troubles, but he foretold prophetically that we would be persecuted for His name sake, and having successfully endured it we will receive the crown of life (James 1:12). Satan (the god of this current evil world) is the one doing that just to discourage us, Nevertheless we have victory over him in Christ Jesus, We only need to hold on to our faith with all patience.. God cares for us and loves us

    More reading – Must Christians Suffer

Does God care for unbelievers also?

Yes God cares for unbelievers also, Jesus said in Matt 5:45 that God makes his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

 Also John 3:16 says for God so loved (cared for) the world (sinners/unbelievers) that he Gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish… But the fact is that unbelievers remain in an unsecure (doomed/perishing) state until they become believers (accept Jesus Christ). So even though God cares for unbelievers, it is wise to repent before it is too late.
   

God cares for the Old Testament believers so why won’t he care for New Testament saints

Not only did God feed the Jews "miracle bread" each morning, but He also kept their clothes from wearing out and their feet from swelling. The three pressing questions of life for most people are, "What shall we eat? What shall we drink? What shall we wear?" (Matt 6:25-34) and the Lord met all these needs for His people for forty years.

2 Cor 3:9-10

For if the ministration of condemnation [be] glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.  For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.

He careth for you." Why should you have anxiety for yourself

"Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7, NKJV).

God knows your needs

 "For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things" (Matt 6:32, NKJV).

God can provide through any means he wishes

God doesn't miraculously deliver bread, water, and clothing to our front doors each day, but He does give us jobs and the ability to get wealth (Deut 8:18) so we can purchase what we need. God can meet any need with or without human means. He is all sufficient (El-shaddai).

Conclusion

Beloved, Over-anxiety is useless, let us cast all our cares (small or big) on Jesus for he careth for us 

       
1 Peter 5:7 - AMP

7 Casting the  whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns,  once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.
   
1 Peter 5:7 - Weymouth
 Throw the whole of your anxiety upon Him, because He Himself cares for you.
   
1 Peter 5:7 - TLB
 Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you. 

Ps 55:22 – KJV
 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
