Faith comes by hearing, not having heard!
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 10:
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.
In other Words, faith, then, is birthed in a heart that responds to God’s anointed Utterance of the Anointed One.
Hearing is always in the present tense. Fear disrupts our ability to hear. The solution is not to ask FATHER to speak louder, we are to deal with and remove fear. Whatever or whoever promotes fear, should be removed from our midst.
A person bound by fear but is dysfunctional in his or her calling. Where fear is dominant, there is no awareness of Love.
The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1st John chapter 4:
17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in Love; but perfect Love casts out fear, because fear involves torment (judgment, correction, punishment, penalty)L But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.
19 We Love Him because He first Loved us.
20 If someone says, “I Love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not Love his brother whom he has seen, how can he Love God whom he has not seen?
21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who Loves God must Love his brother also.
Don’t allow yourself to justifiably be called a liar! If you have hated for another believer, repent and pray for the issues of that relationship to be resolved.
You and I are meant to rule with the heart of a servant, and we are to serve with the heart of a king. This is what Jesus did in His earthly ministry. We are to walk in the great faith of GOD as we access HIS resources and rely on HIM to bring forth such resources through multiplication as He did with the fishes and loaves.
How do we activate our ability to hear GOD’S Voice? Meditate on what you remember of the works of GOD, even if you have to go back to the days of Moses.
“Show me what kind of FATHER you are!”
We need to tap into the Heartbeat of THE FATHER Who Loves people like HE does. “Activate my hearing because I want to hear better.” As I hear better, my faith grows and will grow to great faith. As I walk in great faith, I will produce more fruit to the glory of GOD and Our Lord Jesus Christ. As a result, the Kingdom on earth will expand.
You and I are stewards of The Divine and we are to serve mankind through our stewardship. We are stewards of the testimony of GOD, we are stewards of the knowledge of the ways of GOD, and we are stewards of the Presence of GOD. This stewardship is our purpose on planet earth.
Matthew recorded by The Holy Spirit in Matthew chapter 1:
23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God is with us.”
Jesus has given us the gift of repentance which allows us to access GOD and become HIS stewards. Once we become stewards, our priorities change, and our focus is directed toward HIS priorities for mankind. We first learn about HIS works but then we want to know HIS ways.
King David recorded by The Holy Spirit in Psalm chapter 103:
7 THE LORD made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.
In other Words, HE unveiled to Moses HIS plans and showed Israel’s sons what HE could do.
Moses was able to hear GOD’S Voice and that allowed and gave him to know HIS ways. The children of Israel missed it and settled for the inferior. They did have the opportunity to build up their faith but refused to do so, the exception being Joshua and Caleb.
It is written by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 11:
24 Faith enabled Moses to choose God’s will, for although he was raised as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, he refused to make that his identity,
25 choosing instead to suffer mistreatment with the people of God. Moses preferred faith’s certainty above the momentary enjoyment of sin’s pleasures. 26 He found his true wealth in suffering abuse for being anointed, more than in anything the world could offer him, for his eyes looked with wonder not on the immediate, but on the ultimate—faith’s great reward!
27 Holding faith’s promise Moses abandoned Egypt and had no fear of Pharaoh’s rage because he persisted in faith as if he had seen God Who is unseen.
28 Faith stirred Moses to perform the rite of Passover and sprinkle lamb’s blood, to prevent the destroyer from harming their firstborn.
29 Faith opened the way for the Hebrews to cross the Red Sea as if on dry land, but when the Egyptians tried to cross they were swallowed up and drowned!
When we hear and respond to GOD’S Voice, we will walk in the same faith that Moses displayed in his calling to deliver the children of Israel from slavery. Let us be good stewards in hearing GOD’S Voice.
