Hebrews 11: 6
Without faith it is impossible to please Him; for He that cometh to GOD must know that He IS, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD
How many times I have heard the verse, "faith without works is dead". I know that this is true and that faith and works are coupled together in the Heart of GOD. The Hebrew 11 passages makes this marriage understandable to me. We must believe that the LORD GOD is. He is alive and moving in the world with power and strength; with purpose and passion. GOD has a plan and that plan includes our obedience to Him. FIRST, COMES FAITH THAT HE IS.
When we come to GOD, we must know that He is, that is the faith that moves mountains. We must know that He rewards those who seek His Face, who turn to Him for guidance and direction in the path to be taken. Many of us arise in the morning and never glorify Him for who He is; never seek His face, His wisdom, His mercy, His guidance and His Love. We head out into the world without a mention of His Name and then expect that He is faithfully watching. GOD is faithfully watching, but He will act if we ask, seek and knock.
Before we take on the day, before we walk out the door of our home, before we speak to any other person, look to JESUS, glorify Him, magnify his Holy Name and greet His presence in your life and the life of all people. Then, go your way rejoicing, with your hands open to give His love to the world.
FREELY YOU HAVE RECEIVED; FREELY GIVE. LET HIS GLORY FILL THE WHOLE EARTH AS WE GLORIFY HIS NAME.
