EXPRESSING THE DIVINE LIFE THROUGH FAITH

in #steemchurch • 7 years ago (edited)

Romans 7:17

"For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith."

Faith is very important to the expression of all that we are as believers and all that God has blessed us with in Christ, for we live by faith.

The divine life we have received in Christ is expressed through faith. Time and time again in the Scriptures, we see the expression "The just shall live by faith..." (Romans 1:17, Hebrew 10:38, Galatians 3:11, Habakkuk 2:4). This means that faith is our lifestyle, and it is the life that we live continuously without break. The new man lives by faith, the same way the natural man depends on oxygen for life.

Living the supernatural life in Christ is by faith, which is living out the Word in our spirit. Faith is responding to the Word in your spirit.

Our new life in Christ is Word life; our life came to us by the Word of God. We are born of the Word; therefore we live by the Word.

Matthew 4:4 tells us that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.

Beloved, learning to live according to the Word daily is the key that unlocks the divine life in us.
Walking by faith is living out the divine life in us.

Living the supernatural life begins by finding what the Word says about you and your situations, then begin to meditate upon it that you might observe to do it. As you store up the Word in your spirit and live it out daily, you will begin to give expression to the divine life within your spirit.

Living out the Word is giving expression to the divine life within you.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO...

Beloved, settle down and begin to learn the Word. Begin to desire the Word with great hunger as you feed upon it daily. Give the Word pre-eminence in your life; give the Word first place.

Let the Word govern your walk. Let it inspire you to action. Living by the Word is giving expression to the Word. Get into the Word and begin to give expression to the divine life within your spirit.

    Christianity itself is based on faith. Our faith can be like a seed, it continues to grow if we give it the needed environment. One cannot act with things he does not know. If we want to truly increase our faith, we can do so by increasing our knowledge of the scriptures.

    Thanks @jaff8. It is true that our faith grows when we feed it with the word.
