Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me – put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:8-9

FAITH IN HIS DISCERNIBLE WORD

 



There seems to be so many voices without and within that give challenge to our faith in Christ. Heavy of the word FAITH___We know that the scriptures tell us that Faith is being sure of what we hope for, and certain of what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1
I believe that there is a faith that is of the mind and will of man. It is self centered, blind and deaf to the Way, Truth and Life of Christ. It is at enmity with the Word of God, and if it were possible, the very elect would be deceived by its subtle and yet toxic proximity to the Truth, it is a surrogate mother's child.
I fear, lest I touch God's anointed, or presume to know the heart or mind of any man. But I fear too, those who proclaim to speak in His name and turn the hearts of God's people who have itching ears, and follow after the pied-piper of false prophecy and man made doctrines.We must turn our hearts and minds to the Living and sure WORD. We must learn to hear with the spiritual ear of the new creation man. To be sensitive to his still small voice, and follow no other, even in the face of ridicule and hostility. Though men grind their teeth in rejection of a still and waiting spirit, one who is a rest in the Lord, and His ability to lead and guide the simplest and weakest of vessels in the work of Faith,___let them grind on, for it is written, "man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."
It is a Word that is discernible to the heart, mind and spirit of every believer that waits in still repose to hear the Holy Spirit reveal Christ and His will in us.Can we get out of range, out of hearing distance, of the Word of God?___I fear so, therefore beloved of Christ, in all earnest proceed to seek Him out__The Way, the Truth and the Life.____
