This week we learned a lot about faith and how you can find
that many of the things people were able to accomplish had a lot to do with how
they exercised their faith in Jesus Christ. I also feel that the more things that
we can see have happened because of our faith in Christ we will be more likely
to have faith the next time we need help with something.
Hebrews 11:30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after
they were compassed about seven days.
31 By faith the
harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received
the spies with peace.
33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought
righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through
faith, received not the promise:
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of
our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising
the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 13: 7 Remember them which have the rule over you,
who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the
end of their conversation.
This was just in these few verses and the word faith is
there many times. You have to realize that faith is a very important principle
and we must see that we must have faith in Christ and miracles can happen.
I noticed that faith was an underlining theme and how we
must realize that faith is so important to our salvation. Sometimes it’s hard
to believe everything we hear, people feel they must research everything before
they can trust it but faith is where we can move forward without restriction.
2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my
course, I have kept the faith:
I love this scripture, I have always said I would love to be
able to say this at the end of my time here on Earth. But really we need to
look at our lives each night and see if this is something we can say. We need
to fight for what is right and have faith in Christ every day and then we will
be able to say this at the end of our lives.
Titus 2: 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and
worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present
world;
If we could really apply the scriptures to our daily lives
we would have so much peace and happiness. In order to deny ungodliness we must
really understand what Godliness is, we must read and learn about how to be
like God and Jesus Christ through His teachings.
Hebrews 8:12 For I will be merciful to their
unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
The Lord has promised that he will be merciful and not
remember our sins. But he lets us remember our sins so we can have remorse and
feel guilt so that we won’t repeat the sin.
