THE WORD, FAITH, POWER, OBEDIENCE, RESULTS

When we study The Word, our Faith increases.

When our Faith increases, we listen for God’s instructions.

We choose to be Obedient because we believe and want to please God.

We can see God working in our lives through The Holy Spirit.
We become more Christ-like and experience His Power in our lives.

Prayer and Communication with God bring His Word, our Faith, and our Obedience together and result in His Power, provisions, blessings and favor in our lives.

The gifts of The Spirit evidence God’s power in our lives. Galatians 5: 22,23 tells us that “when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, He will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control”

As I read and study the WORD, my FAITH grows. I experience the POWER of my faith. I want to stand out in my faith by being OBEDIENT to God. When I listen to God’s direction and do or say the right thing, sometimes the hard thing, God proves His faithfulness to me and in turn I find my faith getting stronger. As a RESULT, God manifests Himself in my life with the gifts of The Spirit. Again, these are gifts, not a result of our own good works but evidence of God’s power working in us.

I pray for myself and each of you. May we experience God’s Word, increased Faith, the Holy Spirit’s Power, the ability to hear and be Obedient, and the Results of the Gifts of the Spirit, blessings, and favor in our lives. Amen.
