The revelation of God's Word, the knowledge of God, are extraordinary elements necessary for faith. But there is another element, a powerful secret of faith that we examine in this video.
If we want to walk in faith, we must understand that not only is faith about the unseen, but there will also be surprises along the way. God doesn't give us a detailed timetable. There are unknowns and unexpected things. There are divine instructions that don't fit with our plans.
Watch the video and discover this powerful message about the obedience of faith. It's a powerful secret of victorious faith.
Why? Because God will evaluate our obedience.
We advance in faith by knowing God, by the revelation of His Word, by the communion of the Holy Spirit, and by what we know about what God desires and says. But that is not all; there is also a very important point: what we do in response to divine instruction—in other words, obedience.
In God's economy, what is invisible is the origin of what is seen. And reality is not synonymous with visible. There are things that are not seen, but are real. What is seen was created from what is invisible. When you have this understanding, it becomes easier for you to have faith. People stumble on the fact that they don't see anything. The reality is that you're not supposed to see. The moment you see, it's no longer faith; it's observation.
We are supposed to believe what we do not see, what God has called reality because God does not usually lie. And it is our believing it that will now bring God's power into action to manifest it.
Faith opens up infinite possibilities for us. When we don't understand how God's work, we imagine that everything depends on God, but this is not the case. Everything God does on earth, He does through a human being, someone who accepts to believe. If there is one thing that clearly demonstrates that we have faith, it is our obedience.
God acts on earth with the cooperation of humans. By faith, Abraham obeyed. Our faith is manifested by our obedience. There is an action we take that demonstrates the validity of our faith. Many people say they are called to the ministry, but they don't obey. They do nothing. They think they will enter the ministry one day. Others think they must launch an action for the Lord and they wait for favorable circumstances, but God has already told them what to do. But they do not move.
Faith is not given so that we can sit back and have God do whatever we want. It exists to bring our lives into line with God's mind. We exercise faith so that every dimension of our lives is in line with God's mind. Thus, God will be honored and His purposes will be fulfilled through us.
