I believe there is a benefit to those who read this blog daily and I fall into that category as well. Let me explain. Each blog I write is due to FATHER telling me the topic for that particular morning. I don’t choose the topic, HE does. I don’t choose the primary Scripture of the subject, HE does. Thus I receive what is on HIS Mind for you AND me on a daily basis. HE knows who will read these blogs and as a result we all are able to receive some level of daily instruction from HIM. I write as I hear HIM and sometimes I marvel how it is put together. Before I post the writing, I read it myself though I may not catch all of the needed editing and spelling corrections.
The moment I awakened this morning, HE spoke “2 Corinthians 5:7”.
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
In the times ahead it will be critically important for us to walk by faith and this should become an individual walk as each of us becomes mature in faith. Let us not be children tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine, running from one meeting to another hoping that some event will change our lives. We each must mature internally rather than hoping for some external event to provide some magic pill of anointing. We should strive to become productive citizens of Heaven.
The “faith” walk has been maligned in the past due to the impure motives among those who professed to be walking by faith. It does not change the Truth that we must walk by faith in order to be pleasing to FATHER:
Hebrews 11:. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him,for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
Soon we will be confronted with global events that will shake the foundation of many. The worldly systems man has placed all of his trust in may disintegrate within 24 hours, possibly an hour. Some may lose their retirement, some may lose their jobs, and others may see a dramatic drop in their wealth. Let me be clear, FATHER has not told me when this would take place or to what degree we all will be affected. If HE were to give me a date or specifics of the impact AND tell me to alert you, I would.
FATHER is the ONE who determined my resume of finance, economics, and information technology. I had nothing to do with it other than submit to HIS direction throughout that last 44 years. I would have spent 6 years flying for the Navy and then become an airline pilot until retirement. HE removed me from the Navy and put me on the path mentioned above. To what end? Could it be to share with you for your and my preparation of the coming events?
I am fully convinced that in order to properly walk by faith, we must have a foundation of Agape Love! Without it, we would end up with the same result of those who crashed and burned during the “faith” movement era. Do you think FATHER considers the intent of the heart when responding to your faith?
Psalm 101:4 A perverse heart shall depart from me;
I will not know wickedness.
Matthew chapter 7 makes it clear as Jesus spoke to those who showed outward signs but with the wrong motive:
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’
23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’”
We must not grow weary in the process of becoming fully mature Sons and Daughters. This is not a 100 yard dash but instead it is likened to a marathon… one step at a time. The goal is to cross the finish line and not give up along the way. This is why I look forward to each day expecting to hear FATHER with today’s instruction. It matters not to me when HE awakens me for I know longer place a premium on sleep. Each of us has the opportunity to submit to HIM by HIS SPIRIT on a moment by moment basis.
Walking by faith should become a part of your daily life, not just 3 times a year at Feast celebrations or Sunday mornings. It is a daily walk with FATHER. Faith is the bridge between hope and manifestation in the physical. If we don’t expect something, we will not look for it to manifest in our lives. When we exercise our faith, it must be with the right intent:
James 4:3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.
IF we have a global economic event this fall, we should be focused on the other side that will present opportunities to those who walk by faith in Love. The time to prepare is now, not later in response to the event. The current system is being propped up by lies and those lies will not support the perception much longer. There have been plenty of warnings issued from all realms. You can either sit by and do nothing or your can prepare. Your level of faith will be determined by your current commitment to FATHER and HIS Way. I urge you to join me in pursuing a moment by moment walk with HIM and let your faith become great. Jesus indicated that there are men of no faith, of little faith, and of great faith. Which are you?
