Faith That Changes Reality

​​
Jeremiah 6:16; Exodus 17:12, Psalm 28:8, 27:5, Prov 16:3; 1 Corinthians 13:5-8; Hebrew 11:1, 11:6, Jeremiah 6:16-21; Proverbs 8:17; Jeremiah 29:13; Hebrew 8:10; Isaiah 55:7; John 6:28-33; Numbers 33:1-2; 2 Corinthians 12:2-5;  Galatians 3:28; Luke 3:21-23


We are walking in today:  Faith That Changes Reality


​Witness army throughout the Bible:  chayil H2429 meaning power, strength, force
Exodus 14:9; Deuteronomy 11:4; 1 Samuel 4:2; 4:12, 4:16; 17:21; 1 Kings 20:25; 2 Chronicles 14:8, 20:21, 24:24; Jeremiah 32:2, 34:1; Ezekiel 38:15; Daniel 3:20, 4:35, 11:7; Joel 2:11; Revelation 9:16, 19:19


Fiveamprayer we have to look at this again to see that we are to be in motion.  The Hebrew word emunah H530 is an action word--we are to do what we can to help God not just believe in what He can or will do.  We are to do what we can--obedience to His word and holding fast to His promises.  We also looked at the word , galal  H1556 commit--trust, rolling all of our cares onto Him.  Faith is so powerful that it will change your situation.  That is obedience that has the power to change situations to what you need them to be.  Obedience is confidence and belief in the truth.  There is the way that the Hebrews live their lives, called halak meaning to walk as a movement and how one lives there life.  This is Strong's number H1980.  This can also be translated as path. Fiveamprayer what path are you on?  Where does that path lead?  He is a rewarder to those that diligently seek Him.  We also have to believe that He is.  Do our lives reflect that we at really seeking Him in diligence?  Do we show by our lives that we believe that He is?  Upon His correction, are we making every effort to line up with His good and right way?  Or do we propose that we have made or found a better way? 
Bread was an important staple of food in Biblical days.  The Lord's prayer begins with a request for daily bread, which in that culture is linked to the importance of eating sustenance from the Earth.  We have to be aware of the kinds of food that we are filling our belly with.  Are our actions directed from His word?  He is the Bread of Life, yet our lives often reflect death.  How long will you continue on a diet of death when He is graciously offering us life and direction from His hand to our benefit?!  Let us no longer have the disobedient response from Jeremiah 6:16.  To hear more on this teaching  click here.
