<\/p>\n<p>8 <em>he is<\/em> a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.<\/p>\n<p>A key goal of this ministry is to build up your faith through Love.&#160; We must be patient in allowing the seeds from the Word to produce fruit in our lives.&#160; Yes, there will be times when we may be frustrated with a lack of results, but we must not let ourselves be moved.&#160; Let patience have its perfect work.&#160; The issue is not FATHER\u2019S unwillingness, the issue lies with us in some aspect of our walk.&#160; We must be tenacious and press in until we receive the answer.&#160; We must remove every remnant of unbelief in the deepest crevices of our being.&#160; Doubt and unbelief are the primary reasons our faith is being hindered from receiving from FATHER.<\/p>\n<p>It is written by THE SPIRIT in Numbers 23:<\/p>\n<p>19 \u200b\u200b\u201cGod <em>is<\/em> not a man, that He should lie,<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200bNor a son of man, that He should repent.<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200bHas He said, and will He not do?<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200bOr has He spoken, and will He not make it good?<\/p>\n<p>We can absolutely trust FATHER\u2019S Word for It is the one standard that does not change.&#160; Man\u2019s word is subject to change for there is no sustaining power to keep it in force.&#160; However, The Word from the lips of the CREATOR of the universe has the infinite, sustaining power to cause the Word to come to pass and be fully reliable.&#160; Why should we settle for anything less?<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 119:<\/p>\n<p>89 <u>\u200b\u200bForever, O LORD, \u200b\u200bYour word is settled in heaven<\/u>.<\/p>\n<p>90 \u200b\u200bYour faithfulness <em>endures<\/em> to all generations; \u200b\u200bYou established the earth, and it abides.<\/p>\n<p>91 \u200b\u200bThey continue this day according to Your ordinances, \u200b\u200bFor all <em>are<\/em> Your servants.<\/p>\n<p>Jeremiah 1:<\/p>\n<p>12&#160; Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten (to watch over, protect, to stand behind) my word to perform it.<\/p>\n<p>In FATHER\u2019S infinite power, HE is standing behind HIS Word to perform IT.&#160; Why would anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear settle for anything less than The Word as the basis of their life?&#160; FATHER freely gave HIS Word to us in order that we could grow in faith and trust IN HIM.&#160; It is really quite simple, we just need to adjust our focus toward HIS Word on a consistent basis and not allow ourselves to be distracted by the world\u2019s trappings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>James wrote by THE SPIRIT in chapter 1: 2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6704","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-love"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6704"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6704\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6705,"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6704\/revisions\/6705"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6704"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6704"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/servias.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
