Second Step in Making Adjustment

April 9, 2010

Let us take a look at the second part of making the adjustment.

Secondly, we have to make an adjustment in on our faith toward God and that he is the one who will help you arrive at your place of success. I want to reiterate that faith is what connects you to God; it comes by admitting that there is total dependence on him and that your hope is in him. It brings pleasure to God when we put our trust in him and no one and nothing else. Even though he is invisible and cannot be seen, we are born again and continue to live by us putting our faith in Jesus Christ and experience the change in our life. Faith is where you please God, admit your dependence upon him, and continually seek to rely upon him and his grace.
Although there may be no physical evidence for your faith, you do have sufficient evidence in God’s Word. Your evidence for what you believe is your faith in God’s Word. God is a witness. He will never lie. If you take God at his Word, that Word will stand good in the trial.
The best way to get faith is to hear the Word of God. It is important for you not only to hear it with your ears, but also with your heart. To hear God’s Word in your heart requires openness and hunger for God’s message. “So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ” (Romans 10:17, NLT).
Begin by speaking the Word of God aloud and allow it to become alive in you. Our faith is stimulated when we hear it. By faith, believe, receive, and confess it every day. Faith will grow as you are continually hearing God’s Word.
In the Word of God, we can see that God has given everyone the exact amount of faith needed to live in this life. God has not given one person more faith and less to another. “Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons” (Acts 10:34, KJV). God does not favor one over the other. Everything that God has made available has been made available to all equally. It just seems as if some have more faith than others do because they have discovered how it works and have accepted it.
