WHERE DOES FAITH COME FROM? #44 THE SUNDAY NIGHT BLESSING WITH DR GEORGE WATKINS
Manage episode 330888106 series 3345479
Where does faith come from? Well, it comes from reading the Bible, doesn't it? After all, the scriptures tell us that faith cometh by hearing the word of God. Isn't that the Bible?
So do you agree then that the Bible is most often referred to as the word of God?
But is that what scripture is referring to when it says that we would receive faith by hearing the word of God? I really don't think that's a complete picture.
For instance, how many so-called religious Study experts in our universities read the Bible to their students every day and yet have not received one ounce of faith.
That would tell me that the ink and the paper and the leather binding around it are not necessarily in God's word. That book you hold in your hand is undoubtedly a vehicle for the word of God, but it's still dead letters without the life of God breathing into it.
The Scriptures tell us that if you're going to come to God, you can only do it through faith. So before you break that book open that we called the Bible, you must do it with faith in God. And when you do, something supernatural happens, and that paper and ink turn into a channel for God's voice to be heard in your spirit.
When that happens, Romans 10:17 comes alive because now you're hearing from the lips of Jesus himself, and faith Springs into your spirit.
This is not an anti-Bible message; this is a warning to you not to read it like a novel but let the holy spirit speak life into you when you read it and hear it by faith.
