Faith

Our Friday Devotion comes to us from Council Member, Kim Caldwell:

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and heal their land.

God is looking for men and women who will live by the Word not just by what they may see, smell, taste, feel and hear. Gods word has to be the absolute authority in your life. When the word of God is mixed with faith it becomes an active, living Word. Faith has to be believed and acted on so it can benefit you.

Do you believe a lie ?? Do you really believe God ?? It is easy to get caught up in the daily stuff of this world and yes we can all fall easy to believe a lie. But when we believe a lie, we forfeit our intimate relationship with God. We cease to be an instrument through which God can get the glory. We forfeit the blessing of getting in on the riches that God has for us. It is a costly thing to believe a lie. My brothers and sisters in Christ……..please do not take your eye off of our Lord…….walk with Jesus and Jesus only……..a believer has no trouble with faith when he sees Jesus. But the devil will do everything possible to keep you away from the BIBLE……why? Because this is where we as Christians see JESUS. When we take our eyes off of Jesus, the road ahead will seem like a huge mountain that you will never be able to cross.

You have to be in the Bible everyday to really see what God has in store for your life. Have a friend that will hold you accountable. Go to our Wednesday night bible study class for Men and Women……..come to church on Sunday and get fed the Word of God………stay connected my friends and keep your eye on Jesus. Oh how precious our Lord is.

There is only one answer to faith……….and that is GOD.

Love in Christ,

Kim Caldwell
