Rom 1:17 For therein
is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The
just shall live by faith
Living by - things
you HOPE for.
Living by- the
EVIDENCE of things UNSEEN.
Heb_11:1 Now
faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
We need to live by
HOPE.
We need to live by the UNSEEN.
We need to live by the UNSEEN.
What is our hope?
1Ti_1:1 Paul,
an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord
Jesus Christ, which is our hope
Our hope- God our
Savior and Lord Jesus Christ.
Rom_8:24 For
we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth,
why doth he yet hope for?
Hope that is seen is
NOT hope.
2Co 4:18 While
we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen:
for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen
are eternal.
2Co 5:7 For we
walk by faith, not by sight
1Pe 1:9
Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
1Pe 1:10 Of
which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who
prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
1Pe 1:11
Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them
did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the
glory that should follow.
The Just live by
faith- the end of our faith is our
salvation- salvation is found in Jesus Christ our Lord, our Hope!
Are we living by
faith? Or are we demanding to see results of our faith- proof from God? Are we
demanding to understand how He is working in our lives? Can we TRUST that He is
working even when our lives are falling apart? When storms rage all around us in
so many different forms, are we holding fast in our faith, in our Savior
believing in the salvation He offers us. Do we remember that the things that
are not seen are ETERNAL, but things we see are temporal?
God help us to live
by FAITH, to live by CHRIST JESUS our SAVIOR.
